    I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.

    That's interesting, I would have thought that there was a bigger discrepancy then that. It seems like BU gets called for a lot more fouls then the other team.

      I agree, and last year was atrocious when I ran the numbers, but this year hasn't been terrible so far, but the flat out numbers don't tell the whole story. The ISU and Loyola games, in particular, were just terrible as the officiating was extremely lopsided in my opinion as far as what was called on each end of the court. The ISU game had at least 3 egregious fouls that were no-called by the refs, one of which put JaShon out for the season, while on the other end, any contact at all was whistled which just allowed ISU to be far more aggressive than BU.

      One interesting thing to note is the foul discrepancy in the 3 games we played (and lost) in the Paradise Jam. Huge discrepancy in the foul calls for that entire tournament!

          BU is 10-2 when we have less or same amount of fouls as our opponent and 4-9 when we have more.

            I'm hesitant to complain, since Bradley beat a good Drake team. But, did anyone else think the officiating was noticeably uneven? Usually, officials seem to try to keep the number of foul calls fairly even. If one team does get more fouls called on them- 1) it is usually the visiting team, or 2) it's because of a more physical and aggressive defense, or 3) because a team that is trailing and is still close enough to have a chance to come back will be forced to foul down the final stretch.
            The fouls in tonight's game: Drake 17, Bradley 20. Not a huge difference. But Drake played a much more physical and aggressive defense all night, plus they fouled intentionally several times in the final minutes. Yet, Bradley still ended up with more fouls, and clearly did not get any home court advantage. Several Bradley players (Roberts, Leons, Mast) were forced to sit out parts of the game to avoid accumulating too many fouls. Those three ended up playing fewer minutes than usual, though thanks to great play by the bench, it didn't hurt Bradley.
            From my perspective, there were a number of ticky-tack foul calls on Bradley, yet Drake seemed to get away with a lot of using 2 hands on Bradley players on defense, hacking BU players as they dribbled, and pushing off on offense.

            It's great to see the Braves overcome bad officiating, and still beat good teams. But this seems to be happening more as Bradley moves up in the standings.
            In 5 of Bradley's last 7 wins, they have gotten whistled for more fouls than their opponent, despite the fact that winning teams usually tend to get fewer fouls called.
            What do others think?

              I said it at the time at home that when we went up double digits, it was the most frustrating double digit lead in a long time. I think on the whole the officiating has been decent of late and today it was okay until around midway through the second half (a little before Roberts 4th foul). Constantly Penn, DeVries and Hemphill would throw themselves into the lane, usually extending their off ball arm to initiate contact and I can't think of a single offensive foul called the entire game on Drake. It felt like the only reason we weren't up 20 points was that they were getting to the line on reckless and illegal contact from the ballhandler. No intention to sour a great night - it really was! But yes, this particular game stood out in that a lot of marginal things didn't go our way, especially playing defense.
              Go Braves!

                Coach, 100% agree. I am not a fan of the officiating in the MVC as a whole. I think far too many fouls are called regularly and I also think they are wildly inconsistent as to what they call a foul. Loyola, the favorite child of the MVC gets all the calls in every game and I feel like we typically get the shaft. Just watching the Loyola game, Valentine rides the refs the entire game and it’s clear that BW teaches the players not to complain and he doesn’t complain too often from what I’ve seen, but maybe some of you sitting behind the teams bench can speak to that more easily. I sit behind the visitor bench so it could be it’s just easier for me to see when they are throwing fits.
                Either way, I always say that we don’t go to games to watch the refs. You start getting up around 40 fouls I think that’s a bit much. Call the things that egregious and things that effect the play and let the Ticky tack stuff go. Seems like many games are the exact opposite.

                In closing, what does everyone think was the worst officiated game they’ve seen? I remember a game against Missouri State from 2019-20 season where they blew the whistle 51 times. I was livid, but we did win in OT. Still, I did not enjoy that game and it took forever.

                    Tommy, don't you have the foul numbers for the Drake game reversed? Bradley had 20 fouls and Drake had 17.

                            So many fouls in this last game. Did anyone hear BW after the game? I didn't catch exactly what he said, but I think it was that BU is 10th in the Valley for getting to the line. Is that accurate? Did anyone else hear what he said?

                              Here are the team stats for just the MVC games (not updated yet for this weekend's games)

                              Bradley has attempted fewer free throws than any other team, except Evansville, and Evansville has played one less game.
                              So Coach Wardle is correct. Bradley is getting to the free throw line less per game than any other team (about 12½ FTAs per game).
