Given the way the B10 was jobbed by refs while playing in Hawai'i this
year, I'm not sure we *didn't* deserve better than sitting at home for the
holidays.

Did I miss any posts describing exactly where the refs were from?  Also,
does anyone know if the same refs "officiated" at the next game where MSU
got jobbed worse than we did?
