Looks like POE's on rough play won't be ending any time soon. This crew is definitely not helping the cause in that regard. Very unfortunate.....

I agree.

There have been some misses for sure but I'm more inclined to agree with the above than to characterize this as unfortunate.

Both teams are giving as good as they're getting.

I would have liked a foul called at 6:51
Lots of contact at 6:51...I would have liked to have seen a foul called.

5:09 Second half, good block or good call?

I am leaning toward good block form the camera angles they gave us...

Should have been a no call regardless but especially in this game given the level of contact allowed since the opening tip.

True on the earlier contact allowed, I was just talking about this block itself though.

That's a clean play regardless of anything.

Totally a good block. L is straightlined on the play, so what is he seeing? T should have the best look between players from behind and also for contact up top. Total guess by Greene on that one.....

Usually I am very hesitant to question or criticize, but I am a bit surprised... I was really expecting a heck of a game from an officiating point of view with this crew. I've seen a lot of Higgins games in the Big 12 and he has looked a lot better before.

Is it just the pace of this one that won't slow down that is forcing it?

Good whistle on the Burke block. Going to goal, offensive player in the air, contact and offensive player hits the floor. Watch the off hand on Siva's hip. Entirely too much contact. Why would an official hold whistle just because of a high stakes game? A foul is a foul.

The problem is, the L hustled too fast to the end line and got a bad look. Slow, fat guys like me would have stayed a little behind the play and had a better angle.

The problem is Greene made a call I'm sure he's told a hundred campers over the years not to make.
