how do u justify allowing the same amount of fouls within 40 minutes (NCAA) as u do within 48 minutes (NBA)?


Heres the other reason I dont want to see it raised. It would slow the pace of the game. Like it or not, referees DO get influenced by the foul limit.  Im sure youve all noticed how hard it is for a superstar to pick up that 6th foul in the NBA. I guarantee you, if you lowered say, the NBA foul limit to 4 per game...youd still have the same amount of players fouling out. Just less fouls called per game.

^^That's what I'd really want. Less fouls, a lot less of that ticky-tack stuff, and none of the "I'm not sure if that was a charge or a block so I won't call anything". The NBA doesn't seem to be a problem with this, but college bball can get so sloppy and dependent on trying to draw the foul. I would like to see less fouling, but the refs do need to swallow their whistles sometimes. I'd also like to see more coaches stop pulling players because they get a quick foul, tell them to be smart and play the way they should so foul trouble doesn't affect them.

And college hoops are slow to finish enough as is.  When there's something about to come on at the time, the game still ain't over.  Too much time outs also, especially at the end of the game.

refs should just stop calling pussy fouls...that's about it.

^ Lol forreal. There's time's when I think it should be raised in college but overall I think it's ok the way it is.
