This is where I am at the moment. We've always known some teams get calls. But to see it this egregiously makes me question if it's even worth playing/watching the games anymore.

I'm speechless and it's not even my team. This should start a revolution.

Can't we get Rutgers instead please?

Don't love these play calls when the priority is giving the defense a little rest.

Not ready to give up on Xavier Scott and Juice Clarke. I think they're going to be good.

Ugh.

Good things happen when they actually show our game on TV, it appears.

Pretty annoying to essentially lose out on a game of your season ticket package if you can't make it to Champaign on a Thursday, especially after the price hike/reseating process. Definitely annoying to not have as many fans in the stadium.

Kudos to Brad. Lots of things that still irritate me but I have to give credit where it's due. Good on him.

Thankfully that's the Iowa basket in a few minutes.

Some bad misses cost us a couple games, just like those did for UNC.

Honestly I'm so glad other teams are just as bad at the free throw line as we are.

This is a good point. I probably need to adjust expectations. I compare it to football and think that there, winning a lot of games is acceptable because of where we started. But it just seems we never realize our potential in basketball. We underachieve instead of overachieve.

I'm not even just talking about winning a national championship. I think we have consistently underperformed in March despite winning a lot of games, and to me, success comes down to that. We are always a good team, but I think there have to be some post season results to consider ourselves...

I guess my point is that I don't feel we are consistently competitive. We win a lot of games (and always lose some real head scratchers) but I have not one iota of belief that we make it to a final four. It would be great if Brad would start proving me wrong.
