Nothing. It has to do with the shit that KU overcame to win this game out of nowhere, which was a hell of a lot.

And there were bad calls both ways.

Which is what happens when you have college referees. But those without an agenda against KU must admit that considerably more went ISU's way over the 45 minutes of game time. As normally happens in a road environment.

Neither of Ejim's last two fouls were legit, yet he watched the last 10 minutes from the bench. It happens.

They were of the ticky-tack variety. Same as many of KU's fouls throughout.

But game deciding calls/non-calls are going to stand out. It's that simple.

One call doesn't make a game. That's the simplest concept of all, I'd say.

The fact that KU fans are working so hard to counteract the end game officiating tells me you probably get what happened.

I watched what happened. ISU jacked up threes all game and made a ton of them, which, in combination with the calls they got through it, helped them hold a lead for about 39 minutes. At which point, EJ took over the game at the end and KU got one questionable call to go their way at the end of regulation. ISU then proceeded to bitch out in OT, while EJ dominated.
In sum, suggesting that KU didn't deserve this win is a load of whiny, petulant bullshit. They were the better team.
