    Refs favoring top ranked teams

    He went high. WRs ducking before contact is not a surprising action during a game, defenders have to account for it to avoid these brain jarring hits. Thats the point of the rule. If it is close throw the flag, eventually players will adjust. It is a frustrating call but that is based on...

    Refs favoring top ranked teams

    The whole point of targeting calls is to change the way the game is played, player intent is not a factor at all. When a guy is coming across the middle you have to form tackle him, no going for the knockout blow anymore. Does that mean some innocent players are going to be kicked out of...

    Cats vs. Badgers -- Side-By-Side Stat Comparisons

    Not Surprising that Uk has the edge in virtually everything. One caution though is that UW plays at one of the slowest paces in all of CBB and that really skews some of these stats (61 possessions per game versus 66 for UK). Looking at the adjusted numbers the edge is still clearly in UK's...

    Kaminsky - Flop Last Year

    There you have it folks, RecentBadger is actually proud[/B] of this play. He's not saying "the[/I] ends justify the means[/I]" or "whatever it takes to win because we're not a traditional powerhouse[/I]," no, not at all. He watches this clip and actually feels pride[/B] in his program...

    Kaminsky - Flop Last Year

    Your words would carry more weight if they weren't being used trying to defend ******** like this: Seriously, are you proud of this specific play? Remember, it's a yes or no question. Yes. We won and Frank changed the flow of the game with that play. I'll say it again. If...

    Kaminsky - Flop Last Year

    Would you prefer to lose to an uncontested layup? How about a 27 foot jumper? Maybe you like to lose on an and one with the poster? Of course I wouldn't be happy losing a game like that, I wouldn't be happy losing a game in any way. At that point in the game Zona was feeling it and had the...

    Scouting Wisconsin

    You are right, the emotional edge can swing both ways and could very well have a negative effect on UW. Seeing the way they have responded though when the game has been on the line late I feel pretty confident that they will channel it positively, but that is admittedly just a gut feeling. As...

    Kaminsky - Flop Last Year

    Of course UK fans know basketball, but there are a ton of people in this thread talking like they don't. Trying to draw offensive fouls is not even remotely close to cheating. Is a charge part of the rulebook? Are refs expected to use their discretion and skill to discern the rules of the...

    Wisconsin ?

    While I agree that it is unrealistic to think they will be anywhere near 1.67 ppp against UK its not like they have been out of minds during the tourney either. They only shot that crazy percentage for one half. In the first half against Zona they shot 35% and went 2-6 from 3. They had a...

    Scouting Wisconsin

    The OP's take is very solid overall and it is hard to find anything really to disagree with. My only nitpick would be concerning Gasser, A.K.A. Captain America. I don't think his reduction in scoring or shooting is a factor of other teams figuring him out so much as it is that he recognizes...

    Kaminsky - Flop Last Year

    This thread is hilarious. Have none of you ever watched a basketball game that didn't involve Kentucky? Not everyone has athletes that can jump 4 feet in the air, some of us need to play D through positioning and craftiness. Frank will continue to try to get every advantage for his team that...

    Ten thoughts on Wisconsin

    Hey all, UW fan here. I have a couple thoughts on the matchup and some of the themes I've seen on this board and others. All of this is said with the understanding that UK is undefeated for a reason and is an overwhelming favorite in this game. If both teams play their perfect games UK wins...
