lol no problem dude. Yeah the big east officials have been a joke this year. They have may have cost my Cards a game or two. Doesn't matter anyway rautins hit the free throws.

Jim Burr must be Pissed, he could not have done more to get the Hoyas back into the game

Good game to Syracuse, I wish the Hoyas would've played like this in the first half.

Re: The 2009/2010 Big East Thread

Reffing sucked on both sides. Gtown clawed their way back in the game because they started attacking the zone, not because of the refs.

Cuse still shot 30fts and Gtown had 3 players with at least 4 fouls.

They could attack the zone because Onuaku and Jackson both had 4 fouls and were on the bench with 12 minutes to go. As soon as Riley came in the game, Gtown started their comeback.

I am very bitter with the officiating of this game, The players need to determine who wins or loses, not the Refs.

Re: The 2009/2010 Big East Thread

The refs have been terrible all year. They will call touch fouls on the perimeter, and then there will be 4 guys colliding down low and laying on the ground and nothing will be called.

Or else guys with the ball will be mugged, and then the next possession they will call an innocent foul off the ball. It can get maddening sometimes.

The only good thing is both teams have to deal with it.

Re: The 2009/2010 Big East Thread

They need to put an age cap on refs or something, all these refs are in their friggen 60's and doing 5-8 games per week. They're overworked plain and simple. Make it so if you're over 50 you can only do two games a week, do something to change the atrocious officiating that's been seen across the league all year.

.......not to mention the fact that most of them are out of shape and have trouble getting up and down the floor and in position. I'm convinced that fatigue effects officiating at the end of some of these games because it seems that they are officiated differently in the final 10 minutes than the rest of the game and far more calls are missed then.

I don't think it's a matter of being out of shape, I think it's a matter of them not being athletic enough to get into position enough.

Half these guys are 60 years old and some of them (Higgins, Burr, etc) aren't exactly slim around the waist. Even if they're in peak aerobic condition they still aren't going to be fast enough to get into proper position every time.

60 year olds trying to keep up with 18-22 year olds...just not gonna happen.

Louisville grinds out an ugly game @ DePaul. Goal now is win 2 of the last 4 and it starts Tuesday against Georgetown.

Countryboy, I think the Hoyas need this win more than you guys with the way they been playing lately.

I don't know..you guys are still ranked in the Top 25 and we are still trying to get "noticed". Both need this win in terms of getting into the top 4 of the conference.
