Setting aside the insane phantom whistle/stolen bucket and the missed obvious foul at the end, Penn State scored 43% of its point total...

The coaches tend to want them playing under control. Go too fast and whole game breaks down for them

Missed the NU game. Just saw the replay of the screw job by refs at the end. Unreal!!! Can’t believe CC wasn’t more irate.

We really don't have the depth only going 7 deep. Takes a lot of energy and fouls can go both ways Plus don't have enough guys that...

They're not going to intentionally foul with a 2 point lead.

It if I’m PSU and I see him on the court, I cover the other 4 and leave him open. He gets the inbounds and then gets fouled.
I still...

Well he did have 7 assists tonight. Also if he can get it inside he can dunk it. Or some one shoots it and he gets a put back. I...

I agree.
But to be clear, even tho they f*cked NU for two straight hours, I hope they get it from someone else.
But in the event that...

I hope they spend the rest of their lives in State College with their favorite team.

He did have the ridiculously awesome swat on the 1x1 breakaway. Nobody else makes that play.

I hope that officiating crew gets gonorrhea

I couldn’t believe the inbound came to him. I could see an alley oop but he’s the last guy on the team who should be catching the...

I hate ever saying the refs screwed NU. They have a hard job and will not get every call right. I hate being that guy.
But:
