Both teams racking up the fouls.  Might be a lot of free throws this half.

They are, but it's both ways at least. I feel like the chirping between Scott and UAB's guy have forced the refs to blow some soft fouls to take control a bit.

I’ve noticed in the American that they really allow plenty of pressure physicality early and tighten up late.

On the Crean thing, I’ve actually loved his commentary.  He’s been pretty fair and yea he sounds more like he’s coaching than broadcasting but it’s kind of nice.  Really good observer and he (for the most part) clearly knows a lot about our guys and their tendencies which is a compliment.  Fun fact I’m sure plenty already know but he’s married to the Harbaugh brothers’ sister.

That wasn’t even a foul

His observations are solid…he’s just a bit too much. It kinda sounds like he’s ripping lines at the broadcast table. 
 

bc I mean, c’mon…this guy clearly loves coke.

UAB giving us fits with their pressure.

I do think I heard a sniff right as they were coming back out of break

he strikes me as the kinda guy to finish half your bag at the afters and say he’ll get you next time. every time.

I see no coke (diet or otherwise) anywhere around the broadcast position.

This game is frustrating to watch and we’ve had a decent lead all night….

[MeanGreen22]

2nd half ref show. How predictable. 

[TheColonyEagle]

The refs are going to have to let them play….this is gonna go until midnight

And another. Up to 5 now. Not good at all.

Make it 6 and free throws for UAB with 16 minutes left in the half….

This might be one of the worst basketball games I’ve ever watched. And there are 8:00 minutes left. 
 

We better win this game. 

[Andrew]

Wow what a drag….. Can we get 60 seconds without a whistle….

i dont know what is worse, the refs or the announcers

 

[UNTFan23]

This game.

[Marty]

what an ugly game. 

[GMG_Dallas]

I just don't understand the offensive gameplan. We're in the double bonus, get to the paint! Make them defend cleanly. UAB is doing it. Stop shooting jumpers.
