The Refs

[Dave in Green]

Let's get this one out of the way quickly. The officiating tonight was about as good as it gets in the MAC. They let the players play, and the players generally played a good, clean game. Any missed or apparently bad calls were minimal and evenly divided. This was a game between two teams without the refs getting in the way. If the officiating in every Zips game were like this, there'd never be another complaint from me about the refs. Special kudos to Bo Borowski, who never once called attention to himself. A championship officiating performance for a championship game.

I think that after the last two or three games (especially the double OT game where half our team fouled out) the League called them in today and told them

LET THEM PLAY

Must have had that talk in between the games yesterday. They let them play in the second game last night too. If they let them play, Zeke is one of the best players in the MAC.

I wouldn't have given us much chance in a game against Ken+ where they "just let them play". And I'm obviously wrong

The difference is ESPN. The mac was told: we have a 2 hour slot for you guys on saturday evening. Don't let that game drag too long.

If we play the same game tomorrow with the same refs, both teams will be shooting one and one with 10 minutes left in each half.
