The dude instigated it. It was a hard foul and he went after Baker. He should have a T at the least.[/align]

The dude lost the ball before Baker even got there. If the guy goes up with the ball then it looks A LOT different. These refs are a joke by the way. I'm done watching.

You can't do what baker did. They're trying to protect guys that can't defend themselves.

Just following the rules.

I'm not sure any of them were much further from the bench than anyone else on our team. I'm also not sure how the guy who got fouled doesn't get a T or anything for the instigation which started the entire debacle. These refs are clueless

Yeah, you're right. Baker committed a foul. A hard one because the guy lost the ball and didn't even get off the ground. Then the guy instigates a brawl and walks away unpunished. Good stuff.

I love how Lamont backed up when Maric faced him haha

saw that +1

How can you charge an opponents bench provoke a brawl, not get thrown out of the game and get four guys on the team you charged thrown out? Makes no sense to me.

Dontell might actually see minutes tonight lol

You can't without the help of some idiotic refs

You're a true quisling, looking to surrender at any moment.

no

Guess the mac refs didn't want niu undefeated. Too bad officiating is deciding the game instead of the players.

I'm just so confused how they can give nothing to the WMU guy when he instigated the whole thing.

Refs decided the outcome of this game rather than leaving it to the players. Seems almost impossible for NIU to win this game. They should have thrown one guy out from each team.

He also appeared to do a two hand dribble, is that legal under the new rules?

If you leave the bench, you're tossed. Doesn't matter what you do.

We look really sloppy plus disadvantaged

Officials are making a point tonight against the huskies no doubt about that
