Week of 1/15/24 Other Games

[sdglast]

I've been rooting for Seton Hall but man Creighton is getting jobbed. Clutching and grabbing from SHU all day, Kalkbrenner got mugged by two defenders and then Richmond shoved the defender. And the refs missed a travel on Creighton. Headed to OT

Big East refs are a joke, we deserve better than this.

100%, and I have never seen McDermott this animated. Seton Hall gets away with a ton and not just in this game. A little like Pittsburgh way back when. You get them to the Tournament, you may see a lot of whistles. I have a feeling the away crowds may have an affect on the officials down the stretch of the season as Seton Hall has a bunch of tough road games upcoming.

 

[Hurleyman216]

Seton Hall is this year’s PC. Fouling on every play with most going uncalled. Throwing up low percentage shots that go in and somehow winning close games. Hoping Creighton pulls this out in OT.

 

[superjohn]

Richmond has been brutal.

 

[TXHuskyFan]

Blew a big call in the St John’s game as well.

 

[aceboon]

Was not expecting Creighton to bottle up Richmond this well

 

[Kemba'sYogurt]

Kalkbrenner has been DOMINANT. Huge stretch there for him.

Winning at the rim vs Richmond is no easy task.

 

[sdglast]

How about Kolek, 0-3 on free throws late in the game. He is a 94% free throw shooter. Go figure. I think Marquette is like 3-10 at the free throw line today.

 

[REB1094]

When in doubt, throw it to the 7’2 guy. Back to back easy alley oops for Kalk and Creighton goes up 4. 26 points, 7 rebounds, 5 blocks so far. Damn

 

[aceboon]

Looked like Alexander traveled on that possession when he eventually made that jumper to go up 4. Started moving his feet way early before he put the ball on the floor

 

[Ctedgeman]

Part of me wants SH to win because it will continue to make our loss to them look better, but I also don't want them to keep winning because I want us to be alone at the top of the big east

 

[superjohn]

Double OT.

 

[Drame]

How was that no foul end of OT

 

[aceboon]

So many times Creighton stopped Richmond but couldn't come up with the ball after the initial miss, and then the refs let SH get away with more contact on Ashworth

 

[superjohn]

Man the stuff they're catching on these microphones from the Seton Hall fans.

 

[storrsroars]

Richmond has been brutal.

So if he gets another rebound, would you say it's the worst triple-double ever?

fwiw, McDermott made some good adjustments. Kadary was fine in 1st half.

 

[REB1094]

MORE FREE BASKETBALL IN NEWARK

(because the refs missed the foul against Ashworth)

 

[superjohn]

Johnnies miss the game winning three, they've had some heartbreaking losses.

 

[Bomber36]

How many no calls can these refs get away with? Announcer said they’ve “been consistent“. Consistently bad is all I see.

 

[navery12]

Texas with a layup to win at the buzzer

 

[sdglast]

McDermott is just furious, and I can't blame him. Wow, shocked there wasn't a call as Ashworth pushed the basketball. But if you are Creighton, Trey Alexander has to make the free throw. Unreal.

 

[Marbles90]

(because the refs missed the foul against Ashworth)

And because Alexander missed the front end…

 

[Bomber36]

How was that no foul end of OT

Twilight Zone.

 

[superjohn]

So if he gets another rebound, would you say it's the worst triple-double ever?

Probably. He's missed 5 layups, also thought he got bailed out a little while ago.

 

[traitor71]

How was that no foul end of OT

Looked almost like a goal line defense when the Creighton kid was trying to cross midcourt.

 

[husky8273]

Texas by 2 over Baylor
