Sometimes it gets wearisome writing about the basketball officiating in the SEC, where referees seem to anticipate about as many fouls as those that really happen.
An observer will see out-of-position referees, sometimes completely blocked out of the line of vision, make a call they obviously thought was going to happen.
It happens all over the SEC, but after Missouri made 27 of 33 free throws Saturday compared to the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville's 12 of 15 to steal a Friday afternoon game as a No. 4 seed in the SEC Tournament from the Razorbacks, it was time for some research in hopes of answering these questions:
Does Mike Anderson's Razorbacks simply foul more than all the other teams?
