Gibbs was fouled and then Hill pushed him out of bounds.

Hill fouled Gibbs hard while Gibbs was dribbling down the sideline. Gibbs lost body control and got completely turned around. Hill shoved Gibbs hard in the mid-section, sending Gibbs into a table and onto his butt on the floor. Then Hill and Gibbs exchanged further pleasantries - resulting in the double technical.

I've been questioning the basketball IQ of some of WSU's players, but Hill doesn't seem to have any. A blatant move like that - down 3 - when you know there are 2 or 3 officials watching you - that's just idiotic.

Creighton wins by 9. This was a 2 point game with 30 secs to play.

While I think it is bush league to do, what is a fan to do to show displeasure with shotty officiating? We've seen a rash of it lately and no one at the league office seems to care. ISU fans should know better, but on this night I sort of understand.

Edit* After reflecting there is no reason to justify ISU the ball throwing. I'm angry at officiating in another Valley game and spoke out of turn in this thread. My bad.

I do think that Gibbs sold the shove quite a bit. Sad finish for the whole league but the better team did win.

Again no place and no excuse for Hill but I can't say I wouldn't have been frustrated and thought about doing the exact same thing.


I think Gibbs is a pretty smart player and got under Hill's skin. Smart move IMO. Plus, I didn't know the shot clock started at 33 instead of 35. Questionable calls at the end both ways......

That happened because Illinois State knocked the ball out of bounds on the initial in bounds pass following the basket. I didn't understand why the refs didn't catch that.

It was still a horrible call. Once the ball went out of bounds with 33 on the shot clock CU should have had a new 10 seconds to get the ball over. They got the ball over at 24 and the ref looked up at the shot clock and called a 10 second call because he saw 24 on the shot clock....you'd think they could have figured it out after going to the scoring table to look at the replay...I guess they just plain sucked - both ways.

Sad ending to an otherwise great game.
There are three rules that I live by, never get less than 12 hours sleep, never gamble with a guy who has the same first name as a city and never get involved with a chick with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Stick to that and everything else is gravy!
