    6 fouls TOTAL 1st half...13(9 on RU) in 7 minutes 2nd half??!!

    So you’re mad the officials finally started calling the game the right way in the 2nd half? Rutgers could have gotten away with murder in the 1st half. Good on Fran for picking up a T to make sure that garbage wasn’t going to fly in the 2nd half - that’s the way the game should be officiated.

    We didn't get jobbed...

    I can’t believe that any Rutgers basketball fan would have the audacity to complain about the refs. Your team’s entire identity is built around fouling multiple times on every single defensive possession, knowing full well the refs can’t possibly call every foul.

    Terrible calls as usual.

    Also, FWIW- 9:39 mark in 1H 5:53 mark in 1H 5:39 mark in 1H 5:05 mark in 1H All examples of obvious hand-checking/forearm chucks that are exactly the type of contact the NCAA is supposed to be cracking down on this year- yet no foul on Rutgers. Your guards were incredibly handsy on the...

    Iowa didn’t play particularly well. Some of that was due to Rutgers, some of it was due to unforced errors. Again, there were missed calls that favored Iowa, and there were missed calls that favored Rutgers. That happens in literally every single basketball game. For example, with 14:10 left in...

    This was my first time visiting a Rutgers message board, and I have to say I am a little surprised at the lack of basketball IQ demonstrated by the fans here. If you want to pretend like the conference and the refs are out to get your favorite team, be my guest. Just do us all a favor and put...

    Rutgers vs Iowa / Game Thread

    #10 shoots 45% from 3 on relatively high volume (four attempts per game). Aside from Bohannon, that is the LAST guy on Iowa’s team you should have wanted to take the last shot.

    This is just flat out wrong. On Iowa’s first possession alone, Rutgers gets away with a handcheck on Moss out on the perimeter and a forearm check (for lack of a better term) on Wieskamp as he drives to the basket. Neither of them were called fouls, but both should have been based on the NCAA’s...

    No, because I wasn’t watching for that. Just like you were not watching for all the garbage Rutgers was getting away with on the defensive end. That is the thing about fandom; you tend to focus only on the calls that go against you, and do not even notice the calls (or lack thereof) that benefit...

    The announcers also said that it should have been a flagrant foul when the Rutgers player elbowed the Iowa player in the face. I’m sure you agreed with the announcers there too?

    Dude, that’s a Wikipedia update from nearly 10 years ago. You’re going to have to do better than that.

    Wrong. Offensive players are allowed to initiate some contact without it being a charge. To rule otherwise would prohibit offensive players from driving out of fear of getting called for a charge. The only reason it was a charge was because Rutgers #5 flopped. You seem to want to play victim...

    Terrible calls as usual.

    Iowa’s guard’s couldn’t get open for shots because they were being held and pushed by Rutgers defenders. Iowa’s ballhandlers couldn’t create any space because they were being handchecked and bodychecked by Rutgers defenders. The only other team I have seen get away with the **** Rutgers was...

    Link to a clear path foul being a Flagrant 1? As far as I know, that is an NBA rule only and is not a foul in the NCAA.

    Terrible calls as usual.

    No, it’s not. Bohannon pulled up and made minimal contact with Rutgers #5, and he flopped backwards like he got hit by a truck. Wouldn’t have been called a charge if he hadn’t flopped.

    Yes, and a flop is a flop- and that was an obvious flop.
