No. 1: Officiating

You really thought we weren’t going to bring this up? It was horrific down the stretch. No Cowboy who played today had less than 2 fouls. That includes Cam McGriff who had 2 fouls in only 4 minutes of action. The Jayhawks shot 45 free throws today. The Cowboys shot 14. That is not a typo, Kansas really shot 31 more free throws than we did. Kansas’s star freshman Josh Jackson took 16 free throws by himself Saturday. He out shot the entire Cowboy team from the line. Kansas actually missed more free throws, 15, than the Cowboys took all game. Yes Kansas is better than us. Yes we are one of the worst teams nationally in terms of fouls per game, but in no game, college or professional should the difference in free throws taken be 31. That’s home cooking at it’s finest.
