We lose and WIU wins are we 8 seed since WIU has a win over IPFW? lol.
I don't know what to say anymore except our guys battled back, swung the momentum in our favor and were ready to take the lead and finish the game and the refs took the game away from us. There were 4 or 5 fouls where we didn't even touch the guy, the charge Eliason took gets called a block and on the other end our guys get their arms raked over trying to drive to the lane and nothing gets called. We played the 2nd half of that game 5 on 8, could we have done a little more to get the W, sure but we had it in our hands and had it taken away by the stripes.
I did not watch the game, But the stat line had WIU 33-41 from the line and 19 fouls. NDSU was 18-23 from the line with 29 fouls. 10 more fouls lead to 18 more free throw attempts and in the end 15 more points. I know we do not always drive enough to create fouls and get to the line. But we have done better this year with doing it. But to me it seems like we foul a lot more on shooting attempts vs just the run of the mill reach in or block type fouls. Not sure if that is what happened last night.
I noticed this year (maybe we never did last year either) that our team does not come over and fist bump or shake the refs hands before the game as most teams do. Do you think that rubs refs the wrong way before the game even starts? Is there a reason we do not do this?

It wasn't just shot attempts, WIU was in the bonus with like 12 minutes left and double bonus with 8 minutes left, everything was a foul, it was ridiculous. And I don't remember us ever going and giving the refs a fist bump, they are Division 1 paid officials, they are paid to call a fair game not get butt hurt over a few college players not giving them a fist bump before the game, no reason that should have any impact whatsoever.
