First up GCU vs UMKC
Its the WAC tournament anything can happen. This should be a good game regardless of records.

UMKC is vying for that upset. Roos up 20-4 with 13:22 left in the half. GCU needs to find some rhythm to stop the Roos offense.

42-40 at the half. GCU's bench is what is keeping them in the game.

Lever getting all the calls. Two absolute phantom calls on Leek. One ref waited to double check it was on Leek then called it.

Look like GCU wasted a bunch of money buying their students tickets, their might be a total of 300 GCU fans at this game right now. Sad!!!!

That's all that GCU has? All kidding aside, I was hoping they'd bring a nice crowd. The games are much better when you have good crowds. Bummer...

Are the WAC refs going to let UMKC finish with 5?

Looks like the Roos are going to come up short.

GCU pulls it off, 77-74

Been nice wac, but refs just confirmed everything. UMKC just played its last game in WAC.

Giles charge call was difference.

Letting a little home team bias seep in here? Roos played an outstanding game and GCU stunk up the place. We are very, very fortunate to pull out the win.

2nd year in a row the team we lose to will shoot the most fee throws in the country in tournament play. That has a 0.00811681 % chance of happening.

Don't have UMKC waste its athletic budget to fly out there.

I think your statistical odds are a bit off. Richardson had the Roos playing in your face defense the whole time (great strategy by the way) which tends to lead to more fouls being called.

I must admit that is hilarious. Hopefully, JB is found before the next game.

Refs calling it this close worries me about our game. We love to foul.

(1/351) * (1/351) = 0.00008. An adjusted ratio for fouls per game and set wouldn't be that much higher when you have an outlier like these last two games. UMKC is 182nd in fouls per game so midtier.

UMKC has led in nation in tournament play in opponent free throw attempts the last two games. (2017 + 2018)They happen to be against NMSU and GCU which leads WAC in attendance, but I think this one was more the WAC knows umkc is leaving.

There was too many phantom calls in this one. They were all big in 3 point game, but none probably bigger than Giles charge call and then phantom call where benson shoots two free throws.
