lol @ citing the foul difference
duke shot 18 more threes and that's not even what we're talking about here. it's that we couldn't actually play the game of basketball in the second half because the refs put both teams in the bonus 5 minutes in which coincidentally put our entire starting line up in foul trouble 2/16/2012 11:56:21 PM |

You're right, Duke had to score the baskets to come back and we had to give away possessions to lose it, but you'd be remiss not to acknowledge the importance of confidence and momentum in the game of college basketball. These are kids we're talking about, not professionals.
It's never been the refs job to control the pace and flow of the game, there should be no 'reining in,' just consistent and fair calls.2/16/2012 11:57:16 PM |

I realize that you have a long and storied history of talking out of your ass on this board, but you do realize that all of our leads were built with multiple bench players on the floor, right?2/16/2012 11:57:38 PM |

if you didn't see anything wrong with that officiating, then something is honestly wrong with you. Painter gets fucking MUGGED, causing him to lose the ball and fall down. The Duke player who mugged him, walks over to where Painter is lying on the ground and "trips." Painter gets called for the foul. And you see nothing wrong with that? That's grade-A officiating to you? 2/16/2012 11:57:54 PM |

Officials work with mostly just two conferences, one is more primary than other.
Mike Eades, Tim Kelly, and Les Jones are primarily ACC officials.

hey you faggots talking shit about how bad nc state fans are
here is a hint
if you dont want to see State fans posting irrational stupid theories about why we lost the game (which some of us are admittedly doing)
dont come in the fucking game thread after a crushing loss
some of us are (irrationally) devastated by losses like this and the only legal outlet is to rant and rave somewhere where our bosses wont fire us for being crazy people
fuck off
come back tomorrow night to tell us we dumb and expound on your reasons for why we lost
for now

Primarily ACC would mean they work more ACC games than non-ACC games, and none do.
There's no such thing as "ACC officials"

Both years less than half his games were in the ACC.

-we were up 61-41
-Duke played an incredibly poor game, they were disjointed throughout, Leslie and Williams had 4 fouls early in the 2nd half and yet we still had the lead with 3 minutes to go, they shot 36% from the floor and 27% from the 3, remove Seth Curry and they shot 16-for-51; and then we choked and let them win in the game they had no business winning
-Leslie and Williams: STOP GETTING IN FOUL TROUBLE! C.J. Williams is one of our best players and he played a whopping 12 minutes, and yet we still led this game for 37 minutes
-the refs, I'm not going to say they favored Duke over us or favored us over Duke, but they showed zero consistency on calling the game; the first few minutes of the 2nd half it felt like someone gave the refs a phone call in their locker room at halftime and told them they were calling the game wrong; how are players for any team supposed to play the game when you change how you ref in the middle of the game?
-at the end of the game, Howell does that dumb near midcourt in a halfcourt offense, and then Brown steps on the lline; come on guys, act like you've been here before
-Wood, 1-for-7 on the night with 5 turnovers, way to go buddy
-on a positive note, I thought we played a great inside game
-where the hell did our defense disappear to late in the game? 2/17/2012 12:05:34 AM |

i've grown plenty wiser
for awhile during the lowe years i thought i had my emotions about State sports under control
i think when i go into something w/ low expectations i'm fine
its the crush of unrewarded optimism that really stings and a 20 pt blown lead away against a rival is pretty much the definition of that
sports are about passion, if you can deal w/ a loss like that rationally immediately after, you dont have enough of it

i just don't get the "dont blame the refs!" trolls
i mean yea, we still COULD HAVE and probably should have won that game with our entire team sitting on 4 fouls and de thaey play key minutes in the second half but that's asking a lot of a team that went 15-16 last year
we choked and let the foul trouble get in our heads. absolutely. and if we're ever going to be a great team these players have to get over that shit and just make plays in spite of any other bullshit going on. but we're not a great team right now, just a good one. a good team that wins that game by about 8 points if it's officiated like a normal basketball game should be 2/17/2012 12:06:34 AM |

I dealt with it with about 6 mins to go because I knew what was coming, so it made it not quite as bad. Still sucks. Agree about the Lowe years, theres actually some nice things about being that bad and having no chances= you don't care anymore.2/17/2012 12:09:06 AM |
