I did a quick scan of a gator board, and as expected it's all b*tching about the refs. Very few actually owning up to the fact they were physically dominated in the paint today, and 0-14 from 3 in the 2nd half.
------
"Mugging inside Madison Square Garden. Suspect still at large, somehow nobody in the entire arena, including the individuals in stripes, got a description."
"Seriously, what a blatantly laughable screw job. Horrible officiating, just awful. Worst I have ever seen."
"I will NEVER accept this as a legitimate loss. We were robbed of the Final Four."
"In any game there are always a couple calls that went the wrong the way, and I can think of a couple of questionable calls that went our way. Having said that the physicality they played with was not allowed for us on the other end. When they got physical it was a no call for them. And when we made any contact whatsoever we were called for a foul."
"Not one to complain about officials, but damn, the gamecocks really get away with anything."
"it was the refs fault..not calling even fouls when they mug our guys"
"JOBBED!!!!!!"
"I hate when people blame refs.... the refs lost us this game. Absolute horse dung."
"It was too clear. Non fouls called on the Gators..but the refs couldnt blow a,whistle on them unless blood was drawn. Refs gave the free throw line to them. What was it 5 calls in one possession..when was the last time you saw that?"
"Usually, teams that brand of thug ball never get very far in the tourney because the officials don't stand for that - but somehow USCe and their ghetto ball seems be the darling this year - or something else shady is going on"
"If this game was called the way 85% of all NCAA games were called this year, their entire team would have fouled out."
"we were not allowed to play as physical as them"
"Verne Lundquist blatantly anti-Gator today. Heard him say "YESSSS!!!" at least 3 times as the Gamecocks started pulling ahead towards the end of the game! Made my frustration even greater. Thought Verne wasn't a hater!"
