Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

I don't disagree that there may have been a foul, but on the road in the waning minutes of the game, you're just not going to get that call, especially against Burke. Not to mention Craft was the only one looking for a shot in the last few minutes of the game so it seemed obvious he was going to do it again.

well, it's obvious Michigan is going to shoot much better in our rematch than they did at Assembly. We better be ready.

Doesn't mean we'll win by any means, but there should be no chance they're not ready to play with everything that will likely be at stake (B1G ramifications, possible #1 seed in Midwest, etc.).

I was having flashbacks of the Wat shot on that last posession... if craft would have kicked the ball out to the wing on his drive Thomas (I believe it was him) was wide open spotting up for a 3..

Florida gets throttled by Arkansas. Really bad loss for the Gators. Maybe now we can put to bed the discussion that the media is having about how Florida can run with Indiana. NOBODY in the SEC can run with us! End of story.
Don't read too much into one game. If one game means everything, remember they beat Wisconsin by 18.
True but Wisconsin was still working out the kinks at that point. I think if they played again today Wisconsin probably wins. If Florida was in the B1G they would be in 5th or 6th place. I just personally think they are really overhyped.
No, they wouldn't be. Prior to their loss to Arkansas, they were beating SEC opponents by an average of 26 points. Outside of Indiana and Michigan, no one in the Big Ten is in Florida's league.

I agree that refs will eat their whistles on a bump in the final seconds, but you have to call a player riding another for an extended period.

I agree that it's a foul, but I really disagree about the point where it's a foul. Just went back and watched the video. Hardaway's forearm is draped across both of Crafts arms when he brings it down. That kind of action is an obvious foul. No way was that all ball, or even 50% ball.

I'm also tired of the "can't let the refs decide the game" mantra. Newsflash: They didn't call an obvious foul an gave Michigan a win. I'd call that deciding the game. Much more so than making the right call and allowing a player to shoot 2 free throws to potentially send the game to double OT.

TCU rushing the court. Love it...good for them. I believe they were 0-9 in conference.

Kansas had 2 points like 15 minutes into the game.

I disagree, Craft got to the rim, so Burke didn't inhibit him in getting to where he intended to go...problem was, there was someone there to block his shot. I thought he should have kicked it out. Everyone and their mother knew he was going to take it to the hoop...again...you just can't count on fouls on the road at the end of the game. I don't think it's a mantra, I thing it's the reality of the situation.

After rewatching the video, I would not have called a foul on Hardaway. The Burke call looks less obvious to me than it did at first glance, but if that play happens in the first minute of the game, it gets called a foul.

Agreed...if that play happens anytime other than the last minute of the game it probably gets called.
