Watched the whole series-

-Held ball- arrow goes to Butler

-Butler called for 5 second count

-Refs didn't change arrow

-Another held ball shortly thereafter- refs gave ball to Butler

 

Not sure what explanation was given as to why they didn't give Murray the ball.

Seems like the Butler Twitter account was making a statement:

That's a bad miss by the officials.

Is this because Butler fouls more than Murray, or the refs weren't being consistent?

From the twitter feeds it sounded like butler beat up on Murray.

Several fouls were late when they were playing catch up.

Idk, I just looked back at the stats of their 1st game early this morning and noticed it and then it played out again. 1st game was in owensboro. Butler shot 69% for the game including 60% from 3 and were 0/2 FT. Butler may be more physical I guess,. I dont know who called the game today, Im sure it was region 3 guys the 1st time
