I'm much more interested in Lawrence High Freshman Girls versus Olathe North, or Lawrence-St. John's 5th Grade Boys versus Nativity these days as well. There's only so many hours in the week.

Don't let that stop you from checking the box score and spouting off to those of us who watched the game that this was either poor effort by Mizzou or poor officiating.
I would think that, as a coach, you would see a low foul total in a blowout win as a sign of great effort. After all, fouls tend to occur when players lazily reach instead of moving their feet to get into proper defensive position or try to block a shot after being outworked for post position or by going over the back on a rebound for which they failed to box out.
That's just me though. Maybe a scrappier team would have built more than a 35 point lead before clearing the bench with 6:00 left.
