It's hard to beat a rigged deck.

:crazy: I am sure that 3 foul difference in game is what is causing West Virginia to be losing by 20 points.

Damn refs are outshooting WVU by 40% as well and making WVU shoot up bricks

I like Kentucky, but they still havent truly played any elite teams off their home court

Maybe UNC or Louisville being generous to call them elite and both were in Kentucky

I think Duke has a shot because they are a lot more battle tested.

This Arizona game seems like it will be a blowout like the Kentucky game. There's no way Xavier has the kind of shooting % they had last game against Zona.

Duke's size and athleticism will carry them to the elite 8. Mark my words.

I would be really surprised if it isn't a Duke-Kentucky NCG which would be really fun.

Even the Kentucky fans are getting tired of all the whistles

What a freaking boring game

Apparently the referees decided they wanted to be TV stars

Lets just stop the game every 7 seconds with a whistle for no reason.

I would really like to see Wisconsin vs. Duke or Michigan State. I think Wisconsin has the size and skill to take out Kentucky.

They'll choke on that whistle in the 2nd half. They cannot allow KY players to foul out. It WON'T be allowed. I guarantee you you won't even see half the foul calls in the 2nd half, but you'll see the same play. The damage is done. This game is RIGGED. It's sickening.

Players of the Game thus far: the zebras.

Ryan Ruocco ‏@RyanRuocco 4m4 minutes ago

Basketball is a rhythm sport. Rhythm is impossible with these whistles. It's not favoring one side. But it is literally appalling.

What's after the Double Bonus? Penalty Kicks?
Ryan Ruocco ‏@RyanRuocco 3m3 minutes ago

These officials are trying to give us an entire games worth of the way you feel when you get the TV time out post TD and then post Kick-off

Corey Clark/TDO.com ‏@Corey_Clark 3m3 minutes ago

16 minutes played. 24 fouls called in this Kentucky game. Fun to watch.

Yep, it is ridiculous. 24 fouls already. At least fouls are pretty even right now.

If Kentucky plays their A game like tonight, they are literally unbeatable.

Their best game is 20 points better than the next best team in the country.
