It's hard enough to be a Cat fan, but it's the Pac-12 ref culture that makes it INSUFFERABE!

We have to tighten up our end of half defense or that will come back to bite us in the tourney

We stayed within striking distance despite not having any of our primary ball handlers available for the last ten minutes of the half. We can do this.

They outplayed us in the first half. Some of that was certainly due to not having either Kier or Larsson. Poor reffing or not we need to play better in the second half. I think we will.

How do you play defense when a whistle is called every play and our players are all in foul trouble?

Well, that’s one of the toughest halves we’ve had to weather all season!! We’re fortunate to only be down five!

And with Kier & Larson both with three fouls, we’re gonna be really vulnerable on defense. We absolutely need to stop their offensive rebounds - I don’t see how we prevail if they get another 8 in the second half!! And somehow establish some better ball movement, too. Not sure how many minutes we’re gonna be able to get from Kier & Larson (and they’ll be guarding exactly the guys who can exploit their foul situations…)

BTFD!!!!

Exactly. Refs will not let the UA play defense. Any contact is an automatic foul on an Arizona player.

Look at the reversal on the UCLA charge when they switched it to an And One on Tubelis.

Agreed! So we need to find a way to win in this context!

Fuck the refs! Forget the refs!

Going to be an ugly second half too. Hopefully we don't sustain any more casualties.

How are these announcers basically begging for a flagrant?
