Ok, Bo, not every contact is a foul on Illinois, and you can't just call a play to run into Illinois players and demand a foul.

I want Wisconsin to win this game, and he's not making it very easy for me.

 

That probably should've been a charge on Augustine though.

Hard to tell, seems like a lot of flopping going on. That play it looked like he stopped and the Wisconsin player dove backwards. Was close though. It's like their plan of attack in the second half is to dive at or away from Augustine whenever they get the chance.

Augustine is getting away with murder.

 

Hardly. Wisconsin players are all working on their acting minors this evening.

My bad, when I saw that held ball live it looked like he had him on the arm, but when they showed the replay, he didn't. But that earlier call or non call should have been a charge.

I think they would've called it if Augustine hadn't stopped. However, there's no physical way the Wisconsin player could've flown that far backwards from the force considering that he did stop. Made it too obvious.

 

Plus, the fouls are 14-3 right now. Wisconsin is getting more than their fair share of calls.

But they make that call all the time, every team flops like that...and i'm not complaining about the calls overall.

And if his motion had continued forward, they probably would have.

 

Illinois really needs to make the free ones they get. And boy was that a ticky-tack foul on Augustine.

That's the story for the Badgers ever since Landry and Stiemsma have been gone. They hang around all game, get within striking distance and then can't get over the hump. The other team goes on a run with 3s and then the game is over.

Eventually Wisconsin is going to have to figure out that fronting Augustine offensively doesn't work. That's 3 times this game he's burned them with a dunk/easy layup, and I remember it happening at 2 crucial points last year in Wisconsin also. It's nothing new.

Bo Ryan maybe the biggest crybaby that I have ever seen, and this is in a game where his team has been called for less fouls then the Illini.

You've never listened to Tom Izzo apparently.

Why is it that I don't feel like this game is over yet?

 

Oh yeah, Illinois is shooting less than 50% from the FT line.
