The way the Cats have played the last couple games this could get really ugly, but I'll be listening and hoping for the best. Go Cats!!!

So far they're playing pretty damn good- very aggressive on both ends. Up 24-23 with about five to go in the 1st. Go Cats!!!

Great hustle by the Cats in the 1st half- up 32-31. This one is radio only, but the WSU @ NAU game just started and BigSkyTV is a big flop so far, video and audio are both f'd up.

Looking for another good half for the Cats.

Sounds like the refs are playing the home-team game in the second half.

Awful non-call. Again.
These referees are f***ing shameful. They are absolutely screwing us.

Definitely getting homered by the zebras. Cats are fighting back. Cats down 50-52

Awesome. ANOTHER terrible call. Every minute there is a bad call.
Down 6 with under 5 to go.

I don't think I've ever heard a game reffed as poorly as this one. And that's saying something, having lived through the Eric Curry era.

Ref's are horrendous, I can't believe Brad hasn't be T'd. He doesn't mince words.

When the hell was the last time they called an intentional foul on a team fouling at the end of the game? This is stupid.

Cats lose. 68-60.
Why we lost:
1. Turnovers
2. Refs
3. Free throws

Final 60-68. Cats forced to foul at the end. Poor FT shooting and too many TO's, but all in all a good performance that could easily have gone the other way (FTZ :yes: )

Seems like a pretty good effort after a long road trip.

C'mon 'horn, you're better than that. You had 6 fouls inside 5 minutes to go, 4 of those inside :40. Assuming you were fouling as you were still in the game...

Add 7 missed free-throws and 10 more TO's then them and I'd say these things contributed more to the loss than the refs.

You guys played a pretty good game in a very unfamiliar place.

FWIW, I don't let Griz fans blame a loss on refs either.

I'm waiting for final stats, but there is no doubt the Cats were homered by the refs. As I posted earlier the Cats had too many TO's and blew it at the FT line, but I think the FT opportunity's favored SM something like 25/10.

I don't care. As much as I rag on the refs, I usually don't blame them for a loss. Tonight is an exception. If you listened to or watched the game you would agree.
