Yup. That accounts for the 29 FT discrepancy.

Baldwin and Martin never drive to the hoop...

talk about a conspiracy nut, you take the cake. Guess your Bearkittens didn't play tonight so you thought you would come over here.

Just trying to add a little juice to your dying board muskieman.

LITTLE being the optimum word.

Now to important news Badgers take down IU tonight by 10

Missed goaltend.

Currently 31 free throws to 8.

Officials continue to ruin CBB.

I just finished watching the game that I DVRd and went back over that Supposed goaltend that you claimed was missed and there was no way it was goaltending like you said. I also noted that they didn't play that play over and over again to show us there was goaltending which they would have done if it was missed. You sir have no standing and also no understanding of the rule for goaltending.

I was at the game and then checked out some of the game at home and I agree with Muskieman on the alleged goal tending not to mention a couple charging calls against the Muskies.

I look at charging calls as a 50-50 chance even though there are rules to govern it the refs seem to have their own interpretation of that rule and it seems to change from game to game. I too thought a couple charges against X could have been called the other way had the refs seem a replay. Sky how did you like the half time show...I could dunk if I could ride a cycle like that but I wouldn't wear red to an X game!

According to the Indy Star article linked in the other thread......Butler is among the nations worst (312th) in the ratio of free throws to field goal attempts.......because they keep settling for JUMP SHOTS.

X on the other hand, works from the inside out and their guards (especially Goodin and Scruggs) are more slashers than shooters.
X, because they are overall such good FT shooters, also gets more attempts from the back end of 1 and 1 situations after making the front end.

Good point and the fact that they have no inside game at all. Omar had his way inside and Tyrique had his chances as well.
