Game 19 - Southern Illinois (Annual what's a Saluki?)

[MNpanthers]

Lol they are gonna call this flagrant aren't they... He's just driving with the ball and the dude is in his space

[sivert]

I don’t think AJ was extending that arm, but he did make contact...

[run&blade]

Flagrant on Green. Ugh.

it looked bad in slo motion I will say that.

[UNIAlum95]

Yep not going to happen tonight with calls like that

[panthergirl123]

Crap to call that on AJ.

[MNpanthers]

For a second there they were calling a fair game

[Waverly_Panther]

These refs need to be run out of the Valley. They just can't handle this level of a game.

[sevelev711]

I'm not a big believer in jinxes, but my goodness, AJ finally gets some attention from the national media and this is the game he has.

[sivert]

Terrible call on Phyfe.

[panthergirl123]

What is SIU's shooting percentage?

[sevelev711]

Okay, so let's just assume this is a loss, that pretty much dashes the At-Large hopes, right? Q3 loss that has potential to turn into a Q4 loss by the time things shake out, pair that with the Q4 loss that is ISUr and that's not good. And that's assuming this team wins out, but let's face it, this team does not look like the kind of team that is going to win out.

[UNIGrainer]

We seemed to lack focus on defense early on. Really felt like maybe we were taking them lightly. They started to knock down some shots, got some confidence....pair that with the adrenaline of playing the conference favorites and here you have it. You'd think we would've learned from the ISU Red game, but hopefully we do this time. Gotta bring it all 40 minutes against everyone on the schedule.

Turnovers 14-3.

[MNpanthers]

Fun while it lasted. We didn't show up, the refs are garbage and SIU decided to shoot their best game of the season

[panther-state]

Did Jacobson bully these refs as a kid? What a hot garbage performance by them

[Leatherhelmet]

We looked like a team that would win out just a few days ago.
