Anyone watching this Duke/WFU

[saint]

Did u see that tech they called on Prosser. I love it. Reddick picks up a foul on Paul, and then coach K gets 2 inches from the referees face and drops about 3 F-bombs lambasting them. Then wake comes down, there is a ridiculous make up offensive foul call, and Prosser steps 2 feet outside the coaches box from 30 yards away and does nothing but put his hands up and he gets a T. People will rag on my and say it's cause I'm a UNC fan but it's as a basketball fan, how does coach K get away with as much as he does? I would like someone else's opinion who was watching this. What BS.

 

[The Big Tease]

I didnt watch it, and dont have money on this game, but I am sick and tired of the Duke special treatment.....it is bullshit. I try to make myself believe that it doesnt exist, but it does. I loved seeing them get their ass handed to them last Sunday

Was suprised at that Technical call - especially since it's in Winston-Salem.


Looks like Duke just got called for a T while I was typing, make up call perhaps.

Regardless, looks like both of these teams are going to do anything to get this win.

 

[freelancc]

hot tempers on both sides and its early in the game..

 

[Blackman]

Just saw that both sides shot FT's - where two Technicals called? Only saw the one on Duke - and Vitale is no help with all of his yelling.

 

[saint]

No, that was the same shit. Horvath comes in and throws an elbow, and he gets the T but somehow, someway, they call a T on the wake player too. I'm glad people other than me see the special treatment duke gets from the officials. I understand coach K has put in his time to get the respect, but the double standards are amazing. And of course Dookie V was going nuts when prosser picked up the tech, but when goon horvath did his mouth was shut for a world record time of 20 secs.

 

[Blackman]

Here we go - whistles galore. I know that they have to settle this game down and get the teams in line, but I just hope that they don't start calling ticky-tack stuff as a way to "keep control."

 

[freelancc]

this is why the ACC is da bomb.. great games

 

[saint]

This is a fawking great game!

 

[Blackman]

Tons of whistles, but I'm loving the intensity.

2nd half thoughts??

2nd half thoughts??

Oly has it at Duke - 1/2 with total of 82 1/2 .... I haven't been watching but wondered how others saw the flow of this game so far?

 

[Blackman]

Geno - both teams are playing extremely hard, not giving an inch. That total seems high for the second half, both sides are playing hard and making the other work on offense, but I do see a lot of trips to the line in this half. To be honest neither of those lines are jumping out at me as all that great.

Yeah, I played soccer there right off the Garden State for years.


Tough game to call, could go either way IMO. Very chippy so far, a lot of physical play and fouling. Tough one to gauge.

 

[Blackman]

Saint - very cool. Amazing how many people have some connection to Jersey.

saint i thought maybe you might be different from most tarhole fans but alas i am mistaken.the message board at unc is full of whining after everygame how refs are cheating unc.it was especially funny last sunday when unc shot 50 foul shots to 30 for visitors.fans still vehemently complained.don't suppose you saw the phantom push off call on reddick for his second foul that changed game and sent him to bench for several minutes.same move he has made all year.horvath retaliated when wake player fouled shav twice.maybe if unc had tougher players they would not be lanquishing in 6th place.coach k was berating the refs to get control of game.he cusses-dean whined-.nice win by wake.paul is rookie of year and 2nd team all acc.if they play this way rest of year with their depth they may be best in acc.by the way i think the box score shows duke called for more fouls than wake.
