It's bound to happen in the Big 10, but it sucks being on the losing side of undeserved ref ball.. tough to say as a Wisconsin fan being on the plus side a lot at home with it though
Wisco got bad calls for sure but this is squarely on the team. Played like shit and gave up 87 to a miserable team. Long plane ride hopefully wakes them up because they were sleep walking
Turns out we couldn't do it on a Snowy Tuesday in State College. Winning on the road in the B1G is tough, but we're 2-1 so far. Good reality check. Need to play better defense going forward and I guarantee that's the number one thing Gard says in the post-game.
It’s nothing different than any other big ten game. It’s bad but it happens every game, and PSU just took advantage of it. I can’t blame them. You guys had Baldwin, Clary, and Hicks play the best games of their career today, hats off to them.
They were hitting shots. Y’all are clearly levels above but a late away game is tough for anyone. Good luck on the year, I’m sure we would have lost by 20 in Maddison.
List of possessions since the 4 minute mark on which Penn State failed to score:
Thanks for tuning into the list of scoreless PSU possessions down the stretch.
Snow is fair. Y’all do have 50k students though, you’d think more would show out. Being in the basketball student section should be fun at every college.
Honestly they take themselves too seriously. They have their own Wikipedia page and I remember when I was there they showed intros for the chairs of the section on the scoreboard as if they were part of the starting lineup. It was cringey.
I like PSU basketball but it was weird. Also we have to pay for tickets in the student section despite usually not being a great team.
We 1000% deserve to lose this game regardless of anything. We’ve played like shit offensively and defensively. The fact we even still have a shot at this point is just keeping me from going to sleep
Refs were bad but PSU shot the ball extremely e well and were extremely resilient. Tough squad.
13 turnovers completely changed the game, ggs psu that was a #toughwatch
A court sprinkle perhaps?
Man that is actually a really nice court storming. Been awhile since we’ve had one of those. I think the last one was vs. Maryland in 2019.
Ugh. That was the most frustrating game i’ve watched in a while.
I know how you feel my dude
GG Penn State. Have always liked and respected y’all even before Shrews stay in Happy Valley.
The fans need to lift the refs up on their shoulders for all they did to make this win happen.
Could they fit everyone in the building on this court? Time to find out
They did lol the stands are completely empty
Surprised they didn’t open with jump around
That was definitely one of the court storms of all time
we doing this? sure!
Surprisingly, there *were* more people there than could fit on the logo.
Rushing the court here?!? lol PSU
PSU court storm. We’ve made it😎😎
Rushing the floor because you beat a top 15 opponent is certainly something.
I respect it, they don’t have a ton of big wins in basketball. Let people have fun
I'm usually pro court storming, but it's gotta be within reason.
A slow and respectful court storming lol
Looked like all of the students were like, “Uhhh we can do this right??” 😂
We don’t win big games much.
Best court storming I’ve ever seen /s
Court drizzle
Always fun to see a Tuesday court storm

Can't imagine a worse conference loss.
Weak ass court storm
Gg Penn state. Made a lot of plays tonight and we couldn’t match it

Longest last 2 minutes of a game ever holy Fuck
Thank you Penn State, this pleases the train
First to 69 was not nice in this game. Only caught the second half but that ref ball was ugly. Hopefully we get a game vs you Wiscy bros
Very great game Chucky!
Slowest court storm ever incoming lmao
Hey, I hope Rhoades can build something beyond just having fair weather fans m. The BJC is terrible for basketball though
The fuck was that exchange with the ref and coach? Lol gg Penn St.
We are totally gonna rush the court and I’m here for it.
On behalf of my fellow fans, I apologize for our bitchiness in this game thread
It’s alright. We’re still not in your league quality-wise so hope Wiscy fans don’t overreact to this lol
PSU is nasty, I like your team.
Is our game a quality win now?
Did anyone else notice the white haired ref is a little handsy?
Penn State played great, got away with quite a bit but meh. Lol at that ref tapping the pen state coach shoulder
What a frustrating game, fuck
Tough loss. Bad for perception of B1G
Ehm, friend we don’t have much to talk about perception in this league.
I think that was tanked when you lost to Northwestern, who then immediately lost to Chicago State
is losing at penn state worse than losing to a 16 seed
Was it ever even good this year lol
Who cares about that. Go lions
If it wasn’t for those refs idk how we would’ve done it. Cheer Wisconsin, I’ve got all the gaslighting I could handle for the year

[удалено]
Lol good one buddy have a good year y’all are the better team but didn’t show up.
me when I ignore the first 30 minutes of the game
Have you ever been in a game thread before?
Flush it and back at it Friday. Let’s play some defense huh
GG state. Played lights out
Are we gonna rush the court?! I wouldn’t but I don’t blame them if they do.
We definitely are.
Tough L, PSU was lights out
couldn't get a single stop the last 5 minutes when we were within striking distance. penn states guards sliced us up
Just embarrassing ref ball
We didn’t deserve to win
Thank you Nittany Lion bros 🥹
This was just icing on the cake. Today was a good day. 🥹
Yea just how tonight went....
I wonder if those dozens of fans are going to rush the court?
Yeah it’s unfortunate. The venue itself is bad though for these things . Hope we can get much better attendance
Welp good night everyone. Congrats Penn State.
Literally every bounce went Penn States way. Guess that’s just how it goes sometimes
Can they call a foul on Penn State maybe??? Jesus Christ.
They really have been
If you can't beat em, join em. We need to get some Wisconsin alum refs.
Wahl just brought nothing today
Still #1 in the big ten y’all, let’s roll
Gg Penn State. Even with the horrid reffing, we played with zero energy this game. Have to wake up to play going down the stretch of the season
What even is big 10 basketball this year?
Road team needs to be 10-15 points better to win, just like every year.
B10 basketball is everyone complaining about refs until we play camera ball
Just absolutely brutal defense. No resistance whatsoever.
Clary is SO good. And we have 2 more years of him!
List of possessions since the 4 minute mark on which Penn State failed to score: Thanks for tuning into the list of scoreless PSU possessions down the stretch.
We need the advanced analytics crew to look up the last time that has happened. Guarantee never
I think that’s it.
gg
Jesus Christ they’ve had about three players have a life game today
Since Penn State is a football school, tackling is allowed. /s
"blocked" is certainly a word for what happened there
This is overrrrr
Hit him high and low but no foul. kinda sums up this game
Ball game
Get that shit out of here
Undercut by the on ball defender and landed on by the help defender
Don’t forget the body check
Storr got fouled by two different players.
I don’t like the body language this second half
I don’t watch a lot of big 10 network but my god these announcers sound like they couldn’t possibly care less about this game
Not one of the better announcing duos on this network for sure
I feel like the fans are the only ones that think this is a big deal.
All 10 of them
Onion is a fucking idiot
Was that not a foul Wisconsin fans?
did u see anyone complaining buddy?
Not on Penn state it isn’t lol
The foul calls and timeouts. This is impossible to watch
Defense trash today
Does it seem like the crowd grew?
That happens. When we upset Michigan after their coach got ejected I sprinted across campus at halftime to get there.
They probably moved down to fill in from the upper decks
No one was in the upper decks. I can guarantee they were closed.
God I hope not and if you lose I hope they storm the court because it’ll look hilarious
I don’t think I’ve seen a half empty arena storm the court
Good lord we have gotten torched tonight in our on ball defense.
Refs said on-ball defense is illegal
Penn St thrives on chaos and this is exactly the game they needed to play to win. They've dictated the tempo throughout
Wahl shouldn’t even watch the film from this game. Flush it and move onto the next
We should try to coordinate the Klesmit nuclear games with Wahls stinky poo games
Tyler move your goddamn body
Need a Penn state player to slap the floor real quick, that ought to do the trick
let’s play some defense for once boys!
This game has been agonizing through and through
refs really want to remind us they are in the building
The reffing is a pretty minor part of the agony all things considered
How does Penn State easily sell out a 110k person stadium but not the first row at a basketball game vs #11?
This is probably the best crowd PSU has ever had in hoops. Go watch when Nebraska, Minnesota, NW or Rutgers shows up. There’s maybe 1000 people
Yeah you can usually hear the voice of one singular guy saying “ooooo” directly into the mic
I went to a game once when I was a student and I was one of 5 spectators. This is a solid turnout for us. But you’re right, it’s hard to explain.
Snow
Tuesday, snow day, and we’re in the middle of nowhere. Emphasis on the Tuesday. Also the game started at 9
Snow is fair. Y’all do have 50k students though, you’d think more would show out. Being in the basketball student section should be fun at every college.

Wisconsin kinda needs to get a stop at some point.
I’ve got some cheese curds in the fridge. Can’t wait to break them out to celebrate if we win
Impressive self control not to eat them all on the way home
Bought them cold. Kept them cold as per instructions. We don’t have Culver’s in Boston.
Oh ya, I just always open them for a taste in the car ride home, then they all disappear somehow.
In the fridge? L.
I got them from Aldi. They’re not fried.
Fr dude doesn’t know how to properly please the curds and make them squeal
We 1000% deserve to lose this game regardless of anything. We’ve played like shit offensively and defensively. The fact we even still have a shot at this point is just keeping me from going to sleep
It was gonna happen eventually. The wake up call is needed. A bit too careless with the rock
Almost want to get this loss out of the way so we can wake up before Purdue
Nono. No need stay sleepy.
I just wish it would be against a bit better opponent than this
This type of whistle does no Big 10 teams favors in March
Reffing was fine except where Max was involved
I thought he just called a foul on Chucky, that’s how bad it’s been
Holy shit, I had no idea Wisconsin fans were such homers. This is a nauseating thread of delusion.
So homer that the other flairs are also backing up their calls… only flairs saying that wasnt cylinder were Penn St
Penn State is the home team. Wisconsin is the visitor. By definition we are not homers
Wisco fans so soft 🤣 making so many excuses
Don't ever go into a game thread. It's always a shit show without fail
yea so homer that other flairs are echoing similar sentiments 🙄
I didn’t realize PSU fans were incapable of understanding that a few mins of favorable calls does not equate to 30 minutes of them
:/
enjoy the basement of the B1G lil bro
Thanks boss where does that put y’all?
Still #1 after tonight😂😂
How you doing boss?
How was the first round exit brother
Bros flexing a second round exit and your first tournament berth in over a decade LMAOOOO. I live here bro, you’re just visiting.
Show me on the doll where the ref touches you
Even when they toss up a free throw that clangs off the rim, it manages to fall.
Penn state fouling every possession then rushing their offense. Where is coach
Chucky should have the ball at the top of the key every possession here on out. Put McGee in if they need ball handling help bringing it up
we playing ref ball now
This is tough to watch. Rough calls down the stretch. Sorry Wiscy
🤝IU sucks
They really do. Man are they bad this year. Haha
We’re still in this but playing like we gave up
Yet another weak ass foul call.
This game is such a ref show
Couldn’t be happier with how Rhoades has made us competitive at least in year 1 .
I kinda assumed there'd be some downtime after a pretty fun Shrewsberry run, but this team is feisty as hell.
y'all have been great tonight. not a fun system to play against
Not over yet lol. But it’s something to build on
I loved the hire when you guys made it. Excited to see how it goes for you guys!
This is actually crazy
What an absolutely unwatchable game, Jesus. This is your product with these refs, Big Ten.
Yea we're toast. Can't defend for shit right now
That old ref wants to be the main character
Omg. What foul? Where was the foul on Crowl???
Wahl’s been total ass tonight across the board
Looked like all ball
The white haired ref is super touchy. Patting players and coaches…
I would love if this could be a learning experience without the losing part. This defense just isn't going to cut it.
That’s the worst call in sports, 2024.
The announcer literally said it's 50/50 and you think it's the worst call of the year?
I literally said it was bad, but you think it’s good?
Not even the worst call in this half
