Loyola seems to play well as the underdog. They've pulled off a couple this year with a 6 point spread against them, most notably against San Diego State. Officiating has been a huge deal it seems, and a little problematic. I've noticed a ton of blatant calls blown.



The UNI game was the one that really sticks with me as bad; as well as the no call at the end of NC State. Otherwise I think we've done OK in terms of foul distribution (I've certainly complained at other times but that's basketball).

Speaking of UNI though following their win against us, they won at SIU shooting free throws on a very questionable call with 15 seconds left and recently won at Drake this weekend with a 27-10 free throw disparity.

Those were the only games I really had issues with too for LU. Some of that stuff with UNI seems pretty questionable as well, but it feels like a large majority of these game-deciding trash calls happen right as the game's about to end. Indiana State @ Illinois State for example, back and forth the whole game but just as soon as Indiana State was down Indiana St. was starting to go out of bounds and Paris Lee (Ill. St.) forced it out, but the call was against Indiana State somehow so they never got a chance at at the end.

We lead by 3 on the road at halftime? That's big, especially against this team. I'm a bit worried that Johnson and Miller haven't scored much.

I'm in..
Nice half, but damn you knew they'd get that basket at the half.
hope it won't matter later.
Kirby continues to show improvement, and he's earned the time on the floor.
Let's keep it going in 2nd half, and get out of Dodge with a W.
Go Ramblers.

PS how cool were those two moves by Donte and Custer?
Also the Jackson/ Doyle duo...
