Getting ready for Saturday, please ignore until then
**** the Refs
- Thread starter CoKane
- Start date
Haha. I've said it before but I love how our players never whine about the calls. Hopefully this spreads to us fans eventually. But no doubt we will get jobbed down there. Was it last year they didn't call the goal-tending late in that close loss?
JW mentioned at least 3 things we got screwed over on down there last yr, he still is bitter but aren't we all when it comes to being screwed over down there. After all you can make a basket between free throws and have it count
This is the most confident I've been entering a road game at Kansas in a long time, don't even care about the refs.
Overall this year, at least in ISU games, officiating has been much better. Some key errors still, but much better. But at the Phog....KU might shoot 50 free throws on Saturday
Also Grill's late 3 was counted as a 2 thanks to CyTV level camera work.
That was all on Oklahoma, not the officiating. You have to at least attempt to move your feet and not grab.
They system the refs use isn't from TV. There are cameras mounted all over the building that feed into the DVSport system. They have access to the TV feed if they really want it but they are separate systems.
If we’ve been playing like we have the last four games, I don’t think even Self’s deep pockets or refs can save them!!
Yes and no. The primary feeds into the DVSport system come from TV cameras. If the house has its own cameras (e.g., Hilton has a robocam under the scoreboard and a couple of PTZ), they can also be fed in as secondary looks if there are enough spots available.
I am sure we will have foul trouble in the first half because Self will be in the officials' ears about how physical we are and we have been getting away with too much based on his film review.
We will then have to rely on the officials allowing us to paly our normal game in the 2nd half, which has kind of been the case so far this year for us.

We shot 0 ft vs OU last year (one obvious makeup call in garbage time) and KU shot 39 vs OU last night?
Guessing the officials were not flawless in that wild swing in at least one of those games.
Unrelated but Miami Heat set record 40 for 40 ft last night.
I look for 2 or 3 of them on ISU. The Big 12 will declare it was a point of emphasis for the game due to the missed one last year and now justice has been served.
If you're hoping for flawless officiating done by humans in a game played by 19-22 year old kids, I don't know what to tell you, you're going to be waiting a long time. I watched the majority of the 2nd half last night and I had zero issue with anything called on Oklahoma, they were lazy defensively.
Jimmy Butler set individual record in same game 23-23. He’s not Steph Curry but 84% so not entirely miraculous given the 23 chances.
