Postgame thread- BU 60 Wichita State 58

[Chucky T's]

Great win in one of the most physical games I've seen BU play in a long time. This was not a game for boys...The refs did seem to be lost on how they were going to call the game. Their were bad calls both ways tonight and it was great to see our young guys play through it. EM was being hounded pretty good all night. His TO's were high but he did a great job on defense and had some great passes down the stretch. He is going to be fun to watch over the next few years. Theron was a beast gaurding Clement. He has become the leader on the floor IMO. Sam Singh was very solid tonight and it was great to see him get the game winner. It was also very cool to see his dad right behind the bench giving high fives to everyone within reach after Sam scored. Overall a great road win and we are 2-0 in the MVC!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! GO BRAVES!

Quite a few Wichita State fans on the board are complianing that they didn't get the foul called on David Collins on the inbound play with 0.9 seconds left. Apparently Marshall was upset they didn't get the call, too.

Too bad. That's really a weak call if they make it.

I didn't SEE the play... but honestly, DC couldn't run over a shopping cart. They think they are gonna get a foul outta DC in that situation... sorry - I am just left belly laughing.

I didn't see it.. but listened to the Bradley announcers.. and they were surprised it was not called. Both seemed to think it should have been called.. but were glad it was not.

A weak call, but a call they could have made and BU couldn't really have argued it. Especially after ALL the coaches WARNED DC IN THE HUDDLE to look out for the screen according to JL on the post game show. I think we were pretty lucky to have that go as a "no call" on the road.

Collins Running over the screen

Having only the Radio to go by. Dave Snell thought it was a foul. He said it would be called 80 to 90% of the time. Buescher thought it was technically a foul but would have been a horrible call if they made it.

Looked like a pretty obvious flop to me, and I think the ref thought so.

If he did flop then you are right....I dispise Floppers! (see Vandergaurd from ISU)

I give WSU credit..they set the play up and ran it to perfection....it's also one of the oldest plays/tricks in the book!

[bluedevils1]

I watched it online and it was awesome!! Some pretty good defensive plays and decent offensive execution when we needed it. And the last play was perfect - the guard goes to the rim, draws out the shotblockers, and leaves Singh there for the offensive rebound and putback. Talk about a hostile crowd!! That was like a Big Ten game. Great win, not pretty, but being 2-0 is awesome.

It was a 'HS prank' play. It was a desperation move. Actually DC should have been put on the free throw line for two shots because he was the one that was fouled. The refs did a good job.

[bluedevils1]

I agree, I'd have to see the game tape, as I recall one palming call and a couple bad passes against the press,
otherwise he almost single-handedly help BU counter the press with his ball-handling skills and quickness.


Here is the PJ Star coverage -- BU is 2-0 in the MVC for the first time in 13 years!!!!!!!!!!!!! (13 exclamation marks)

Awesome editing in the 2nd link. "Maniscola" and "McClain". Haha

[BUFAN]

I want one, I will order it first thing Friday morning...





Here's an idea...John Searby....
the first 10000 fans get a free, plastic, Sam Singh face mask!!!
The place would be packed--

There is only one magic mask and jl has it safely locked away...

Disagree DC, We were very lucky it wasn't called. If that happens in the first minute of the game and its called no one would say anything,but do to where we were in the game the refs just swallowed there whistle. IT should have been called and if it happened earlier in the game it should have been called. The rule book doesn't dictate when in the game to use a rule. They should be inforced for 40 minutes. We got a hugh break on the road now lets go to MSU and take care of business.

[real fan]

We got a break on the no call, but they were not being called for a lot of fouls that they were committing in the 2nd half.
