Did anyone else notice that during the last 10 minutes of the second half a lot of the time we were on offense the badger stadium crew had the ring lights strobing so hard that you could see the flashing show up on the floor of the stadium and the second the badgers took possession of the ball they turned the strobes off?
I get trying to get your crowd pumped up but I would think that was intentional to try to mess with the shooters for the gophers and I am very surprised that would be allowed. I'm all for fans trying to distract shooters with motion/signs/cheering, but using the stadiums light system seems like cheating.
Also on the play Gabe K beat his man and his man's head hit him in the side of the shoulder when he elevated for the shot and one ref called charge and one called block, did anyone think maybe the ref who thought that was a charge needs to get some retraining? I was watching in a bar so I didn't have sound, what was there rationale to go to the monitor? Did they think it was a flagrant because there was contact to the head? How do you review it and come up with gopher ball, no foul either way?
