I know it is hard for me to be unbiased, but curious if others think we ever get the benefit of "home" refereeing like I am sure I see elsewhere. When is the last time anything like last night ever happened at Mizzou Arena in our favor?
Followup question if you agree with my premise, why?
1) the SEC still hasn't accepted us? (although I keep being told there are no "SEC" refs)
2) Coach Martin's belief in respecting the refs as men doing their job and not "working" them as he often gets criticized for here?
3) CCM style of hard nosed defense will never get the benefit of the doubt?
4) We haven't had 5 star players or "star power" that get the advantage that it seemed Cooper got last night.
Again, I freely admit I see things thru black and gold glasses. But I try my best to be fair and often point out to my wife who is a bigger BB homer than me, that a call was correct. I just don't see us get the advantage in Mizzou Arena I believe I see when we are on the road many times.
Maybe Cobra has some stats to validate or disprove? Seems there are stats for everything now if you know where to look.
