Lol it is a 31 point game. Sometimes you just get your (I can't express myself without swearing) kicked, but if whining makes you feel better, have at it.3rdGenAggie wrote: ↑March 24th, 2024, 2:19 pmThe only thing more annoying than complaining about refs when they don't suck is defending them when they do suck.

Wait. Do you think I think we'd be winning if not for the refs? Let me assure you, I do not.Aggie formerly in Hawaii wrote: ↑March 24th, 2024, 2:23 pmLol it is a 31 point game.

Now, at least make the refs buy you dinner before you let them have their way.

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Agreed. It’s like they saw who our best player was in the first round and decided to take him out with foul trouble.
That said, we still probably get beat by 10 but at least we’d have had our big guns in there.
Oh well.

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Stop acting like officiating doesn't matter. It makes you look stupid. And no, USU would not be winning with a clean game, but that doesn't mean you have to pretend like the officiating is great.
Read the comments to this...basically none are USU fans.

The refs were not great but had no bearing on the game. Purdue is just a damn good team.

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Disagree. Purdue probably wins, but when we have to go to our 9th and tenth guys on the bench 12 minutes into the game because of fouls, then yes, they had a bearing on the game.Aggie84025 wrote: ↑March 24th, 2024, 2:36 pmThe refs were not great but had no bearing on the game.

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
The refs took us out of our game, it was Sprinkles job to get them to settle down and not let the awful reffing and crowd get to them, we did not do that. Such is life
We looked fine for a while but once they went on the run we got frazzled and let it get out of hand

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Game was even until we had to go to our 9th player on the bench with 8 minutes left in the first half because we were in foul trouble at the FIVE minute mark of the game.Aggie formerly in Hawaii wrote: ↑March 24th, 2024, 2:23 pmLol it is a 31 point game.

We probably still lose by 15 but the foul trouble killed us. Foul count needs to be increased to 6 in college. Makes for poor games.
Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Not at all. Here’s how I think you guys see officiating:
> say we all agree that a post defender can put a forearm in the back of an offensive post man. If osobor was to do that to say filipowsk, I’m not sure filipowski could back him down.
If osobor was instead to put two hand and his body into filipowski’s back and push, all neutral observers would say that’s a foul.
Where you guys are wrong right off the bat when you b*tch about Purdue is.. you say “hey edey is 7’4” 300, and that’s not fair, so what you can’t do against most players you should be able to do against him.”
You’re already wrong. A foul against one player doesn’t become not a foul against another because he’s big. If you get a forearm on filipowski or Ben Gregg’s back, then that’s what you get on edey. It’s not the job of officials to say “no he’s big so now there are different rules.”
> then, on top of being just as wrong as you could possibly f-ing be, after your guy is hanging on edey with two hands and their body. YOU EXPECT EDEY NOT TO BE ABLE TO FIGHT FOR THAT SAME SPACE. And if he does, you want an offensive foul called on him.
> and then, you’re too dumb to realize that what is actually called comes after your guy hangs on him, he fights for that same space, then your guy hits his left arm or slams into his body on the way up for his shot.
Edey isn’t hard to officiate at all. Whatever movements or motions are allowed against your guy with the weird mustache are allowed against him. Nothing more. Officials don’t get to decide what is and isn’t allowed … to make it fair.
Don’t like it? Go get your own 7’4” 300 lb player and develop his post game into a fully functional post game. You’ll pay on the other end on pick n rolls, but you’ll have a player who is legally able to win matchups and get the best shots to can get.

On a hunch, I looked up the leading free throw shooter by attempts in the country. Huh, Edey. I don't think fouls on Edey were a major reason USU lost to Purdue. I do think Edey gets a favorable whistle, and it's to be expected.

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Of course he leads the nation in fouls. He’s 7’4” 300 stooge. You can’t stop him with legal post defense. You know how you stop or slow him? How FDU did. You bracket him with two guys.

You know that’s how you slow him … outside of getting David Robinson as your own center. But you don’t want to play 3 on 4, so you’re hoping you can play as physical as possible and that the refs don’t call them all. Then when they do call them, you’re flabbergasted lol.
Imagine this.. when your guy had two arms and a body in his back pushing and it’s only allowed cause he’s big, imagine if he could turn around and put his two hands on your guy and shove him as hard as he could. Would you really like no whistles then (I can't express myself without swearing) for brains?

Edey isn’t hard to officiate at all. Whatever movements or motions are allowed against your guy with the weird mustache are allowed against him. Nothing more. Officials don’t get to decide what is and isn’t allowed … to make it fair.
Don’t like it? Go get your own 7’4” 300 lb player and develop his post game into a fully functional post game. You’ll pay on the other end on pick n rolls, but you’ll have a player who is legally able to win matchups and get the best shots to can get.
On a hunch, I looked up the leading free throw shooter by attempts in the country. Huh, Edey. I don't think fouls on Edey were a major reason USU lost to Purdue. I do think Edey gets a favorable whistle, and it's to be expected.

You know that’s how you slow him … outside of getting David Robinson as your own center. But you don’t want to play 3 on 4, so you’re hoping you can play as physical as possible and that the refs don’t call them all. Then when they do call them, you’re flabbergasted lol.
Imagine this.. when your guy had two arms and a body in his back pushing and it’s only allowed cause he’s big, imagine if he could turn around and put his two hands on your guy and shove him as hard as he could. Would you really like no whistles then (I can't express myself without swearing) for brains?

There's zero chance this guy is a Purdue fan. Zero chance a Purdue fan would make an account today to argue this on a dead thread.

Re: 8 on 5 is tough!
Did you actually watch Purdue v USU? Our guys didn’t use two hands very much, I am sure it happened but it was rare. Maybe you are thinking of Sundays game(two days ago)? Now in that game the Tennessee dude was basically countering Edey with a shoulder and two arms, it was kind a funny to watch.boilerD wrote: ↑April 2nd, 2024, 7:07 pmOf course he leads the nation in fouls.

Your blood must be truly boiling if you think refs call Edey fair on defense. I will give you the point that guys are raking him when he backs down with the ball, but watching every Purdue game so far in this tournament I have noticed that what he does on defense, when guarding a player that has the ball and is in the process of shooting, is no were close to being officiated equally. If it was, he would likely not play more than ten minutes for either fouling out or fear of fouling out.
He has some nice handles with the hook shots though.
Oh and, Good Day Sir!

Hmm consider me skeptical that a Purdue fan would come here talking smack 2 weeks after the fact wanting to argue what a foul is. Welcome back, how is the troll study coming along… now go get yourself some AggieIceCream.

No, that’s the thing. Opposing fan bases like to say that.

You think Great Osobor was guarding him with one forearm to the back? I didn’t know he was Hakeem Olajuwon.
And again, if you talk to Tennessee fans, I bet they tell you their guy wasn’t doing that and think it’s not a foul if he did. AND THEN they expect Edey not to fight back for space or they think THAT is the real foul lol.
Ahhh … you think edey is the one committing the real fouls on defense. Have you thought about how that sounds? He’s 7’4” with a 7’7” wing span and a vertical in the mid 30” range. And you think he’s the one who needs to foul.
Now, what players like osobor do is try to do is go into his body to draw a foul. But I bet even though you think it’s only fair if someone hangs all over edey, you expect edey to have someone hop into his body and react by backing up and running away.
By the way, you do realize that four of the first five fouls on your team were actually committed against Trey Kaufman-Renn right? All that Utah state fan crying I watched and you guys didn’t even have the right guy lol.
