Heated at rhe end of the game?!

Illinois was total bush league at the end of the game, which is unfortunate because it was a good game up till that point.
Agreed. Illinois played a clean game. Timeout with 4.1 and attacking the ball after it was successfully inbounded tainted the Illinois effort. Too bad as this was a damn good game!
 
It’s funny how the refs follow Connor there. Neither takes any exception to Dusonmu at all. Kind of makes you wonder if refs have same “objectivity” problem as a certain awesomely objective poster.

Connor was giving Eades grief for not reffing to the end of the game. If they are gonna foul, call the foul. I agree with him 100%. Of course rocket wants to throw shade on Connor for talking crap to Illini players and coaches when he was playing to the crowd after the pass to Wheezy then talking to Eades and not the Illini bench at the end of the game.

Just saying the refs were paying attention to Connor due to the conversation.
I get that what I’m saying is if the refs do their job “objectively” then there is as much need to “converse” with Connor as there is to deal with the guy closed-fist punching at the ball held against the rib cage of big, bad Connor. How any ref watches Dosunmu punch at the ball like that with zero recourse is, well, it’s bad reffing.

I could be wrong, sure. But just because the majority thinks I’m wrong, doesn’t mean I am. Certainly the rage some of you have just because a poster has a different take is psychotic. I have to find another team and I’m a douche bag just because our player who has been involved in every scrum weve ever had was involved in another.
Are you Connor's policeman? I don't understand your infatuation with him?
 
yeah, theres truth to that. And then Connor could have just walked off and ended it. But he didn’t. He kept looking back at the players. Instigating more
Ooohhh he looked back...perhaps Connor was concerned that one or more of the enraged Illinois coaches or players was going to run at him?
 
Class???? Is that why in the last 10 seconds when the game was over and Illinois was NOT going to foul and Iowa throws a deep pass....rather than dribbling out the clock your class player dunks it!!! Garza...very good player but after you make the 3 to ice the game DON"T puff out your jersey at the Illinois bench!!! Act like you've been there before!!!

Should be a fun game in Champaign!!! Go Illini!!
Waaaa, waaaa, waaaa
 
Like I said 2 good teams but 2 plays in my opinion didn't need to happen!!! Especially the Garza puff out your jersey at the bench!! The dunk at the end does bother me too, but it was a fun game to watch. I'm sure Iowa fans hate us as much as we hate you!!
We don't hate you, we pity you.

It’s too bad it ended like that because that was a really good Big 10 battle. Brad Underwood is really good guy, listen to his post game, proud of his kids, very complimentary towards the Hawks. It’s too bad an assistant had some poorly chosen words and that Fran probably overreacted a little.
until we know exactly what the asst . said . ( which we wont ) not fair to say fran overreacted .

The ref’s were partially to blame for that. If Illinois wants to foul at the end like the did they have to call the foul. Not just stand looking at them thinking “I’m going to ignore this and allow him to HACK away for 4 seconds and let the game end”. Sure, IL should have backed off but if the want to foul the ref has to blow the whistle!
even if the ref calls a foul everything still happens like it did . they punch at the ball and connor will still do the little forearm shiver and the coach will still be upset . illinois wants to be upset about the dunk then they shouldnt have been pressing , same way at the end , they were still pressing with 4 seconds left .
 
Illinois gaurs took a swipe at the ball woth Connor holding it. Some words exchanged just like with lames. Connor did a little talking as he was walking away. Illinois assistant said it was ducking bullshit. Fran fires back. Assistant didn’t back down. Fran took the ball and went home.

Fran and Connor. Apple didn’t fall far at all.
good , i am glad it doesnt .
 
I can't figure out what Illinois was mad about. The dunk by Wieskamp made sense. Why with a clear path to the hoop would you pull out and risk missing 2 free throws? Then their 3 cuts it to 4. A steal and another 3 and they're right back in it with 20 seconds.
i believe the 3 cut it to 7
