+Duran Scott: Holy ****! I remarked that he was the Kris Letang of basketball players after the GT loss because of some poor decision making. Well, the other half of that is having the raw talent in him to put his balls in the defenders mouth and take over a game. He set a career high of 32 points. If only he were good enough to make 3rd Team All Acc...

+Barry Larkin's Son: Dropped 23 points and also came up with 7 boards. He was 8-10 from the line. If he has bad day from the charity stripe, the end of the game would've been alot more interesting.

+Getting to the Line: We went to the line 30 times, making 23 (76.7%). That's the difference in the game.

Minus:

-Him: Nothing that hasn't already been said since the Duke game.

-Mark Gottfried's Face: I said yesterday his face was very punchable. It still is. I'm just glad I got to see Durand donkey punch it.

-Refs: Really hard to complain when you shoot 30 free throws, but that's how bad these guys are. This game would've been over at half-time if not for these ***-holes. Don't you dare think tomorrow will be any different if we play UNC.

I'm not seeing where all the ref hate is coming from. They're not favoring Miami, but they're not all against us either. I only counted one or two real ticky tack calls and otherwise there were a few 50/50 calls that were charge/blocks that I could have seen going either direction.
 
My only beef with the refs was that 3 or 4 possession sequence late in the 1st half when we were up by 19. I thought the call on TMJ on Wood was pretty ******* bad.
 
Watching the game with a Tennessee fan, and I was yelling at the TV, "Don't shoot" every single time Scott launched a 3. He finally looked at me like, "WTF are doing."
 
The refs were bad, but bad for both teams. We got away with crap, but they also got a lot of and 1s and 2 shot fouls because the refs assumed we'd foul on layup and dunk attempts. There were actually a couple where the NCSU guy pushed off and we got called.

I didn't feel as though we got the shaft from the refs today. A few calls went our way that probably shouldn't have.
