Wtf are these refs doing 

[zipsrule]

Freeman got tackled and no foul?!?

Thank God Dawson answered that 3 after the gift by the refs with a no call on a tackle.

 

SCOTT!

In football that would have been a 15 yard penalty. The guy jumped on top of him. Freeman is lucky he didn't get seriously injured.

Groce very animated, motioning for the crowd to get into it.

OU just picked up their 9th foul.  Keep taking the ball inside.

OU just daring the officials to call a foul on every trip

Scott is coming along nice.

They've been doing it all night. Their game plan - much like Kent's 2nd half gameplan - is to bully Akron and out physical them.

THORNTON! 10 point game!

Ohio U is as solid of a defensive team as we've seen since At. Bonaventure.  Very good at doubling the post then getting back to the perimeter.

Absolutely. Great gameplan and execution by them all night.

Ali Ali gets throat chopped on a dribble drive. Blocking foul, naturally. I mean what the hell are we doing, zebras?

[zippy5]

Ali just got punched in the face after Enrique got tackled (again)

 

Foul on Ali. Lol

[Illini Zip]

Freeman with the mop. He's unbelievable.

Part of me thinks he was buying time for the refs to decide to review the Ali play

[Let'sGoZips94]

Great stop after the quickest jump ball whistle I've ever seen.

[LZIp]

Refs are just not good all around.

[Let'sGoZips94]

The guards are growing on me. Tribble/Scott/Thornton - we're seeing where each fits in, and they're beginning to make a positive difference. 

[Spin]

That should do it. 7-0 here we come 

[zipsrule]

Winner winner chicken dinner!!

[Let'sGoZips94]

9 pt win. Ugliest win of the year? Maybe. But a win is a win. 

[Illini Zip]

I thought Scott showed some fight tonight. We needed that energy.

[akzipper]

Good win for the Zips and the crowd looked decent on TV. I'm not sure if Boals and Bobcats believe they committed a foul all game with the way they were complaining.

Freeman got back into the Double Double column. 19 & 14. Duplicate that performance and it's MAC POTW #8. And tonight was an off night as far as I'm concerned. He should've had... 26? 28?
