Well if your Arkansas just keep taking it to the basket and the reffs will take care of the rest. Just know it ends when you play Duke. Enjoy how it is when it's eight against 5 because it'll be 8 against 5 the day after tomorrow on you

 

[Aike]

Zags 14 turnovers. Both teams struggling with FTs.

Yeah it isn’t all refs. Like is usually the case, make enough shots and the refs can’t stop you.

 

[RoyKent]

Gonzaga in HUGE trouble. Wow

 

[Titpwhami2014]

Officials are paving the way for dook.

Honestly the more I watch this game. The more I think Arkansas is a tougher matchup for Duke. They’ll probably get called for more fouls. But they play hard, are every bit as athletic and have a guy that can score in bunches.

Would also be fascinating to see Wilson sliding under Banchero every play. Could be the Zebra Apocalypse.

 

[ScottGreene22]

It isn’t though. Could have been 14-1. Arkansas fouls without ceasing.

ole Pitino trick foul constantly they wont call everything

 

[Aike]

ole Pitino trick foul constantly they wont call everything

Yep

 

[ck-2]

Arkansas fouls every defensive possession a lot like Pitinos teams. They can’t call them all.

 

[Rideordiewildcat]

Just tuning in Zags only 3 fouls with under 8 left. They playing that amazing on defense or same old bs?

 

[BBNinSC_rivals62411]

Gonzaga is the Duke of the West to me. I will enjoy watching them get beat

Arkansas lives and dies with Notae. If he’s off they’re done no matter who they play.

 

[zannmann]

Arkansas up late almost time for stall ball…oh wrong coach.

 

[Ugoff]

Nance on that Timme miss: "ooh that was a GREAT chance"

 

[bluedog79]

The refs been doing a damn good job of keeping this game around 3 to 8 points Arkansas. I'm sure they'll get a nice Christmas bonus this year.... From the devil. All of you sold your soul for Kkk

 

[bookerfan66]

Even though they have won the Zags haven't looked very good the whole tourney.

 

[Aike]

It’s bad both ways. Should have been a charge a few mins ago on the Zags. Should have been a jump instead of a no call on Timme. And then bad call on Holmgren

Zags getting much worse of it, because Arkansas lives to foul and Zags are more finesse.

Now that the margin is stretched, Zags getting some calls but when the cut it to 3 it went the other way.

The fix is in, so they better start making some threes quick. Not much time left.

 

[Cowtown Cat]

I hate Gonzaga with a passion. Sorry, I just can’t pull for them. They’re a fraud. They struggle anytime they play an athletic, physical team. Every single time.

 

[Aike]

Even though they have won the Zags haven't looked very good the whole tourney.

Yeah they are pretty good but not great. Physical teams like Memphis and Arkansas are tough matchups for them.

 

[ck-2]

Every good team left in this tournament has players who play with grit and hustle. Like every possession is the last one of a game that they’re down a bucket.

 

[megablue]

Good lord. Are you watching the game ?? ARK is deliberate on every possession.

 

[Ugoff]

zaggies gonna live at the line now.

 

[ukfan041]

Go Hogs! F**k the Zags

 

[tls]

Refs helping Duke on the sly by knocking out the Zags.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Both teams shooting awful and a very rock fight score. Not seeing it.

 

[Susan2361]

Has there ever been a Final Four with NO #1 seeds left? Just curious.

 

[bluedog79]

Watching Gonzaga play they play to get fould from the refs. But what they're finding out is these refs are not blowing that ******* whistle every time like normal. Sucks don't it

 

[Bluespade44]

Even though they have won the Zags haven't looked very good the whole tourney.

No dominant team this season. Could’ve been a good run for the Cat’s if we had a decent coach. We had the players.

 

[TortElvisII]

Shows is a criminal.

Anybody want to debate that?

 

[UKUGA]

Refs are timely, with what they call and what they don’t call.

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Has there ever been a Final Four with NO #1 seeds left? Just curious.

Yes in 2011. Uconn 3, uk 4 and butter an 8 and vcu 11. I think not sure on mid majors seeds.

 

[Aike]

Doug Shows is a crook

 

[Cowtown Cat]

No dominant team this season. Could’ve been a good run for the Cat’s if he had a decent coach. We had the players.

Yep. Cal blew our shot AGAIN!

 

[EliteBlue]

ole Pitino trick foul constantly they wont call everything

Shelby Valley won a state tournament playing the same style. It’s effective. If you press full court and fly around w energy, the refs just can’t keep up and call everything

 

[mc140]

How did refs miss the Arkansas player out of bounds on that drive that led to a 3?

 

[HagginHall1999]

Stars aligning for Duke makes me wanna

 

[mhroe1984]

That might be it.

 

[Lazlo7]

I like Timme, I do not like Holmgren. I think Holmgren has turned me against the Zags or it could be the whistles and commentators that soured me on them.

 

[Aike]

Shows had his mind made up to call those fouls before contact was even made. He should go to jail.

 

[ukfan041]

Where’s that mouthy Zags fan on here lol. Too bad he’s on ignore

 

[TortElvisII]

How did refs miss the Arkansas player out of bounds on that drive that led to a 3?

This is about getting Coach K a title.

 

[bluedog79]

Zags getting Zagged in their keester holio. Lol. Watching these refs makes me giggle. Somebody got a microchip in the basketball making the Shots go in for Arkansas LOL I don't know I just know duke is national champion
