Official Shocks-Ugly Dawgs thread

Luckily, I fell asleep on the couch and slept through the second half of our continued implosion. In 50 words or less, can someone sum up for me wtf happened last night?

Our team fell asleep, too.

does this guy blow you?

No. I'm just apparently better at being objective when it comes to officiating than most fans. And the replays, of which they showed many, validate everything I said above.

The double foul is a joke Someone nut up and make a call, there can't be blocking and charging on the same play. This happened in the indst game also wtf!

I believe it occurs when one ref calls a block and another a charge. By rule, it is a double foul.

You don't see it often, but when both make a visible signal that can be seen, you have to go with a double foul. I've never had one in a game. My brother had it happen once in his 10 or so years of officiating. It's not something any official wants to happen.

In this case, I can see why both thought what they did though. I don't remember who had the charge call, but in his position at C, he probably couldn't tell that Jake was still sliding. Higgins was at T following the play and had a great angle to see that. I'm sure both were certain of what they saw, so you go with the double and move on.

I'm disgusted with people saying every win is "gravy". We would've taken thus record to start the season, we were picked 4th.
Whatever...
WSU was a legitimate top 20 team. It was in the drivers seat for an MVC championship. The team was fun to watch. That team has turned to garbage. Its not excusable to blow opportunities after persevering to get them.
If you had monthly sales records within reach & goofed it away, your boss would be ticked. This is no different, great opportunities are being pissed away.

Is there a fan board for just officials?

Well worth 9:23 of your life... it might even make you feel a 'smidgen' better about last nights debacle. You might respect BH even more. If nothing else, at least listen to the last 3 minutes for a couple of great quotes. The interview was sometime Monday.

I think there is some irony with the comments people are making about the shockers play and how we suck nuts at offense etc etc etc

We shot higher then our season average on FG's, 3',s and FT's percentage

We out-shot the other team. We out-rebounded the other team. This loss destroyed us as far as an NCAA bid goes but frankly I thought our play was better in this loss than the other two losses last week...we are not where we need to be but can you imagine what this loss would have looked like if we had shot 20% from the three like we like to do...

Team Cohesion and turnovers lost it for us, not bad shooting, not poor free throw shooting, not our rebounding..etc...

A good offensive performance does not include over 11 minutes of scoreless basketball.

This is not new though, Its not like this was the worst offensive preformance of the season. Or even the worst offensive performance in the last 10 days.

I think that's kind of the point. The offense has sucked.

[DUShock]

I like Barry. Glad he's back.

Go Shocks!

Not the end of the world guys. The good thing is, we as shockernetters absolutely suck at meltdowns. If you want to see an epic meltdown, spend a few minutes at kusports.com and check out the apocalypse going on over there. 50% of the time karma is fun!
