What?? I am just stating my opinon. I happen to ref with several guys who have reffed with Higgens in the past. They have stated that his current streak of games, have not looked good. Fans have their views on officials, and Officials have their view on other officials.

I actually was observed the other night at a NJCAA game by a guy who works in the Big 10. Talking to him and having him critique me, showed me that the NCAA isn't messing around. The NCAA is trying to get a hold on things and not allow crap to happen (I.E cinci vs xavier). This guy said, the main thing is officials need to become more a force in the game (call it early, and teams will adjust). He said a lot of the "Big Timers" are still not getting the hint. They are allowing the hand checks to happen and the assignors are not liking it. The old timers are struggling in the college game, that's why you haven't seen Eddie Hightower work a Final Four in a couple of years. he is one who isn't willing to change.


FYI man, I graduated from UNI, how many times do I have to repeat that. I worked for Rick H. at UNI in the athletic department. I cheer for UNI anytime they are playing anyone (except Iowa) sorry I grew up a hawk fan. Majority of my family are hawkeye fans, except for my (sister, and little brother) Everyone else is a hawk fan.

You say refs need to call it early and teams will adjust. I do believe UNI adjusted - Iowa did not. That's a mark of a good team.

Yes, I am not disagreeing with you on that aspect. UNI adjusted and Iowa did not. That's not the main point here. What I am debating is how Higgens has fallen off this past year. I personally do not care about the Iowa/UNI game anymore. Its over and no one really cares.

I am just trying to say that their are different views on games. "Regular Fans" watch a game and see it one dimensional. Officials watch games and they see both sides (because as officials are you supposed to see both sides and call it like you see it).

I mean the fans in the Syracuse/Toledo game this year. Cuse fans were saying that PAT was good and the Toldeo fans were upset. Well as you can see both should of been upset, but the Cuse fans were saying it was good and said the official didn't have the best view. It just goes to show, the team who wins, always think the game is officiated perfect.

i am not questioning your panther loyalty. i am just pointing out the absurdity of most of your statements in this thread.

This. LOL at the fact that he keeps repeating that the game means nothing anymore, also, then keeps going on and on about making a case that one of the refs who "stole" this game from Iowa is on a serious career decline, like this UNI/Iowa game is the climactic moment in his career's inevitable downward spiral. You lost by 20 - get over it already.

What? That was not a judgement call by a referee where someone could see both sides of it. That was a botched call and THEN a botched replay ruling after the botched call. Terrible example.

Marble is the only one athletic enough to avoid his defender as he makes a move....

No, no, no. May is ALWAYS the most athletic player on the floor.
Haven't you heard?

I heard that when their radio guy said it in pregame. Made me chuckle.

Okay what about OSU/Miami in 2002 when the Pass Interference was called in the end zone in overtime??

Who was saying it was pass interference?

Who was saying it wasn't pass interference?

Just saying, teams that win will always agree the referees called a great game and are the best refs. Sorry its true and you can't deny it.
