Kentucky’s 19-point loss to Iowa State was a disaster. The Cyclones completely dominated the Wildcats in the second half. Kentucky did not deserve to win, and a few calls would not have changed it. We’re not going to blame the refs at all, but we have to ask the question.
How did they let an Iowa State player kick a basketball into the stands without receiving a technical?
When certain things happen in any sport, it’s a non-negotiable penalty for a team. If a specific word gets said, that’s a penalty flag. If you make contact with an official, you’re getting a technical.
