Nah the call on Coleman was correct.. he reached to far hit both his arm and leg gonna get that called 9 out of 10 times. you call on TJ was bullcrap i agree.

Underwood is way over reliant on the top 6. Clearly 2 losses now where we couldn't compete at the end because the top 6 were dead.TSJ wasn't driving well the whole game, and was especially out of control at the end of regulation. He looked gassed. A wild drive by him on the last play actually might have been called a charge by these inconsistent refs. Domask was the right guy for the last shot, even though he missed it. Overtime was a nightmare with NW shooting lights out and the D switching confusion.
The bench has to get more minutes. BU is making a mistake pushing a 6 man rotation which is wearing out the players and it showed tonight. Teams won't go deep in March with just a 6 man rotation.
I think NW got called on those in our first game early on and they had to adjust to life without moving screens.There were so many moving screens that weren't called that I lost count.
"Hazed" is putting it mildly.I just have one question for Northwestern fans. Does “No means no” apply to freshmen football players being hazed in the shower?
7 guys played 15 minutes or more last night. Who would you have played more?Underwood is way over reliant on the top 6. Clearly 2 losses now where we couldn't compete at the end because the top 6 were dead.
I've been wondering the same thing; that was bizarre.On the flagrant one foul on Shannon why did he only get two free throws? He was fouled in the act of shooting shouldn’t he have gotten three?
So much wrong here….We don't have a point guard. Or rather, the good point guard, Moretti, spends his time watching from the bench. The experiment with Rodgers was ludicrous from the start, and it looks like Underwood has finally figured that out. Domask often brings the ball up the court, then starts backing down and backing down and backing down in the paint, then tries to figure out what will open up. Teams never double him, so he gets his points. I wish Moretti was playing the point (it would make Domask even more effective,) but I suppose this is not the point in the season to be breaking in a new scheme. Is Bouie the best player in the conference?
Just looking at the video there....what slap down??? He poked that ball out without contact....The NW dude did step on Coleman's foot, which is probably the main reason they called a foul (because all together, it looks like he fouls him because of the step and stumble.)I thought Coleman got the foul for the slap down. I thought Shannon played great defense on that play and it was a play on.
They (somehow!) didn't call it on the floor, right? Only on review did they identify a flagrant. My guess it's a quirk of the rules.On the flagrant one foul on Shannon why did he only get two free throws? He was fouled in the act of shooting shouldn’t he have gotten three?
Gonna stop you there. TJ is working his way back still, and is not himself yet, which he will be soon, but Buie is not better than Shannon at all
And anybody could see that, which begs the question why put TJ out there for 40 minutes, including putting him on Boo when we needed one stop to win the game?
Still love Brad and I think he’s a great coach but last night wasn’t his best. It happens. We all have off days/nights. Despite the poor coaching, unconscious shooting by NW and us smoking a bunch of layups, it still went to OT.
I bet if you take the exact same shot charts and replay that game 100 times we probably win 75. Happens on the road.
I feel like this summarizes BU's tenure at Illinois. We are a much better program than we had been in recent history, but we generally fail to get it done when it matters most.
