Someone should be fired

they’re letting them play.... Wisconsin wanted to make this a rugby match and the officials let them.... seems like they’re calling it the same both ways though
 
In the span of about a minute Davison had two dirty plays. First pulled Keagan down from behind as he was shooting, then the hook and hold. Officials seemed to not love either call but given Davison’s history it just can’t be a coincidence that he is constantly involved in plays like this.
Two hook and holds by Davison on consecutive plays and he was still in tbe game.

This officiating crew is the worst in the country. Borowski and Green should be fired.

Clown fans are sure the refs gave the game to the Hawks. Yep when the refs aren’t stealing games from the clowns they are giving games to the Hawks.

Too much play stoppage and the officials were not on their A game the officiating didn't seem particularly targeted at either team. Bucky fouls almost every defensive and loose ball play and they let Iowa do much the same. Luka just clubbed a Bucky a couple of times. They did Iowa a solid with that crazy double foul, head shot foul.

There seems to be a trend to open the game is emerging and that is bad for teams like Bucky and Sparty. Bucky has been doing that hook and hold for years. The cylinder call is another. Iowa is going to need such officiating next year because the boys will want a broad open floor when they have the ball.
 
Doesnt matter who wins, and we all live and accept bad officiating, but good god this is the worst officiated game I can remember. Horrible!
the game needs to be cleaned up

there needs to be an NCAA Officiating Division that oversees all officials

and the rules need to be enforced on a consistent basis

and the officials who don't call the game correctly and consistently? they're gone

and ass hat coaches like Izzo who can't stay in the box & follow the rules? Automatic T. No exceptions.
 
There’s certainly contact with JBo’s hands as he catches and shoots. They let a lot more go beyond calling that though. Probably the most unfortunate Wisc got with the officiating.
Yeah, Trice had ahold of JoBo's arm. That's why the ref called a foul. And that's how WI plays defense all the time so there was surprise when Bo called the foul. His mistake.

😉
 
What is it with B10 officials and the hook and hold? Swear it only comes up in every B10 game but rarely ever see it called or talked about in other conferences games. Seems like there are 3+ reviews a game for it, way excessive IMO

There aren't even NCAA officials per se. They are afraid to hire them as permanent. I think the time has come to create an official team of officials that are at least seasonal. Most work other jobs already but this would allow for more oversite and hopefully better and more consistent calls. As it is, the crews call the games so differently that the teams often take about half the game trying to see how it will be called.

Some players/teams do it more frequently. Davison is a prime example in that he did it 2 plays in a row. It needs to be called.

The reviewing every contact to the head shit has become ridiculous.

Its not accomplishing anything productive or preventing anything harmful.

Its a waste of time, people get their head touched in basketball, it doesn't matter.

Exactly. Just enforce the rules of the game. There are constantly coaches out of box and on court.
 
Hoping someone will screen capture it



then there is this


Best I could do.

How was Trice in the game at the end when it was clear he was the one who fouled JBo on the driving layup. Oh and I once again call four the concept of conference officials coming to an end.

I don't necessarily have a problem with the rule but i do have a problem with stopping the game over and over again to watch a slowmo replay to determine if one happened. Similar to how i feel about targeting in football if it doesn't look like a flagrant in game speed then it shouldn't be just because you stopped to watch it in slowmo from 5 different angles.
 
This is how Wisky plays, and Davison should be tossed in most games. That said, I prefer the officials trying to let the guys play. It's hard to do with teams like Wisky and MSU, who just don't stop fouling. Fortunately, the officials have had Davison's number the past couple of years, and if it had been anyone but him hooking Keegan, I'm not sure that gets called. I still puzzled by what Keegan did to get his call, except get hooked. I also thought the ball under the basket was off of JBo, but it was very close.
