McCall Gets His Way

His hated Boise State is out of the tournament.  All it took was for him to officiate a game.

Team fouls in a tight game the entire way:


New Mexico 13 (the entire game)
Boise State 26

Looks evenly officiated to me. (insert sarcastic emoticon here...)

In this stage of a tight game...

Bairstow 11 free throw attempts, Boise State 8.  No further comment necessary.

The Mountain West Conference Needs to Fire Randy McCall Immediately

Bad officiating is the nature of the beast--it happens all the time.  But when you have a guy that obviously hates Boise State, he needs to be shown the door by the Mountain West Conference.  If a particular team experiences bad officiating from a particular referee one time, it is what it is.  But this guy has been vindictive four times against Boise State, so much so that in one game, he wouldn't let Rice even talk to him, then chatted it up in the Wyoming huddle afterwards.

There is no room in college basketball for an official that hates any school.  Time to go.

Cortney Finishes 10th in One-Meter Dive at Zone E Diving Championships

Bates Takes On the Best Tonight

Emma Bates will run in the 5,000 meters tonight at the NCAA National Indoor Track & Field Championships in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  The event will start approximately 8:35 Mountain Time tonight.  Bates is currently ranked ninth in the 5,000.  She will also race in the final of the 3,000 meters tomorrow.

Best of luck, Emma!  I just feel eventually you're going to win one of these.
