Way back when, a BB coach jumped on our team when we tried to use the refs as an excuse as to why we lost a close game. His simple solution was that you had the opportunity to win the game with or without a bad call(s) -- that ended the excuse game from that point going forward which was good for the team.

Someone mentioned earlier that Cook played only 18 minutes and a few of the calls were questionable but at the end of the day, it is what it and is irrelevant. Players/teams need to deal with it and overcome it as there will always be missed calls as took place at the end of the Princeton game. I would imagine that is the attitude of Coach Donahue and Henderson.

It does seem that some Penn fans based on comments were jumping on the refs as per the norm over the years. Best solution is to get separation so that you are not trying to come back from a 5pt deficit.
