... is that OSU got totally home-jobbed on the refereeing, and we still couldn't win.

Tell me I'm wrong here. The refs were very biased against OSU from start to finish. Every 50-50 out-of-bounds call went UC's way. The bogus technical foul on Muhammad. The ticky-tack fouls on OSU and none called on UC. The refs were UC's 6th man.

And UC still couldn't win.

You are correct. The basketball team sucks. Good thing football is going well.

I don't think this was at all accurate. I thought there were a lot of calls that went against UC. I didn't think the officiating was egregious one way or the other. I'm sure there were calls that went against OSU too.

The Tech was a textbook call. Their guy hit the shot, started running back, and then turned back to the defender to talk smack. Jacob Evans got called for the exact same thing against Xavier in 2016. If you're gonna talk, don't do it after the next play has started. And definitly don't do it in front of the ref.

Yea. I thought that one was really obvious.

We stripped Wesson clean for a steal on the press and they called it a foul on us.

But by all means, let the self loathing continue.

yeah. this wasn't my super bowl

The worst thing was that after 50 years we still haven’t beaten OSU in a significant game.

As much as I would like to blame the refs the problem is the guy on the bench. Mickey Cronin is and has been over his head. Of course almost everything is over his head. LMAO.

You lose Evans, Clark and Washington and replace it with? Players who have ZERO offensive game. Don't say, but they are great defenders, because compared to the three gone they are ZILCH ZERO ZIP NADA NOTHING.

Yes we will beat a few multi direction schools and AAC bottom feeders but at the end of the year the best we can hope for is to host an NIT game.

Sad so sad. $87 million wasted. Should have built BDF a true indoor football complex.

I get the frustration with the OSU game. My $.02: it's still early. This will be a different team come the end of the year.

But they won't be anywhere as good as last year's squad. Did people really expect Cronin to replace two NBA-ers and K-Washington with other NBA-type players?

This is UC. Not Kentucky or Duke. That won't ever happen in Clifton under current circumstances.

Sucks enough being Xavier's whipping boy, now we gotta be OSU's ***** too?

Maybe I'm way out of line, but I think the foul calls on Cumberland in the first half were complete jokes. ESPECIALLY the first one. That was so bad that if our offense wasn't making people throw up in the first half there would have been a riot. Go back and watch it.

OSU definitely got the short end of a number of calls, but losing Cumberland in the first half was so huge that anyone ignoring that is being obtuse.

I agree, our HC is obtuse.

Cumberland should have been playing anyway....we 'lost him' because Cronin can't coach his way out of a wet paper bag
