It doesn't take much to change a game. With an average spread of about 3.5 points, it sure doesn't take a lot to change the outcome.
 
It's also not just the fouls called, it's the effect that they have on the flow of the game.
 
So with our game with Ohio State, for a defensive and transition team like SU, it's not just the fouls called, it's their effect on how we can play defense and not being able to run in transition. I have no doubt in my mind that there was a conscious effort to affect the outcome of the game. Statistically, where just the fouls called were three standard deviations from the average of the entire regular season, and that there were 6 more called than the highest total for any game this season, the officiating in that game against us was incredibly mathematically improbable. And there are way too many games in the tournament now that are in that same category than to explain as mere coincidence, especially given their timing in the postseason.
