Give the foul to someone else - On his 4th foul, someone made the remark that the foul could have been called on another Illinois player. Not true! Powell had LGP and was standing strong. Augustine simply reached for the ball and hacked Manuel across the arm. No reson to give the foul to anyone else.
Contact - The officials allowed a lot of body contact and were consistent with it all night. They allowed contact on layups, drives and screens. But, they also allowed May to move at will with the ball in the paint. Most of the fouls were called when defenders used their hands.

1. Agree. Augustine looked like he wanted that foul.
2. Tell ya the truth, I saw some iffy screeens in the first half, nothing worse than borderline. I didn't see anything in the second half that was anything different. I agree they called the obvious the entire game.
