Officials for Tuesday vs MSU?

[tweeterhawk]

Apparently tm just wants to walk into a room and yell fire for no reason.

Dude - as IPA pointed out, I think this crew is a good thing for Iowa. They call a lot of fouls. One of these teams goes 11 deep without much falloff in productivity (debatable but I will leave that alone), the other is depleted with two of their key players out and another hurting. I'll let you figure out who this benefits.

The other side of this coin is that at least two of the refs don't put up with **** from the coaches. We all have watched Fran get T'd up but Izzo is prone to blowups too. IMO this is a push to slight advantage to the Hawks. We don't need any T's tonight and Fran likely knows the propensity of the refs just as well as the rest of us.

It it's not cyclone basketball, tm sometimes doesn't understand right away. Good points; perhaps he'll read it and get the point. I think overall these officials will be good for Iowa tonight.

Sanzere is brutal.

Yes, he is....he just makes bad calls.

Still, overall, this crew is probably as good as we could hope for in this bleak Big Ten officiating landscape.

Teddy V. has only done 5 Big Ten games this year...I think they are phasing him out after last years debacle.

Is that correct? If true, very interesting. We can only hope he's on his way out. Jim Burr should be next.

Let the refs do their jobs and root for the Hawks. The players will decide who wins this game.

With that crew, I would expect a lot of fouls to be called tonight and Fran likely to be T'd up at least once

FPG Average
Sanzere 39.2
Eades 40.8
Scirotto 38.1


The average FPG Big10 play this year is 37.1

Eades did the Iowa v Wisky game where Fran was tossed.

Sanzere did the Iowa v Iowa State game.

Eades and Sanzere did the MSU v Texas game where Appling fouled out. Lots of fouls called in that MSU v UT game. (3 disqualifications and 2 others with 4 fouls).

For those of you that like to spend mama's welfare check at the casinos - take the over.

Tom Eades is the one that Fran tried to kill. This is Mike Eades doing this game. Tom also did the Iowa-ISU game. Mike did an ealier game. NW maybe?
