NCAA Basketball - refs ruined both games.
1st game: Horrible phantom jump ball called with only a few seconds left in the game. Instead of calling a foul or letting them play as they had all game, the stupid ref stops the game and calls something that didn't even happen. If anything, it should have been a foul. The Louisville player never had possession of the ball. At that point, it was a 3 point lead with 10 seconds or so in the game.

It would have been a thrilling finish - that an idiot ref didn't allow to unfold…


2nd game: Michigan up by a few points with less than a minute to play. Michigan dude dribbles and elbows the Syracuse player to the floor - and they call a foul on the Syracuse player. Inexcusable…

Also an offensive charge on Syracuse where the Michigan player was clearly moving during contact. That was closer, but still wrong.


Refs ruined what should have been two very exciting finishes - both opportunities stolen by horrible officials.

Too bad.

:(


PS: Not a fan of either losing team.

Totally agree. I'm not really a fan of any of the teams but would still like to see a fair finish. Would of made both games much more exciting

yes you make great points, that was no jump ball, moreover the Louisville defense is allowed to rake the ball from players late in the game with no fouls called throughout the tournament. great defense my butt.

Re: NCAA Basketball - refs ruined both games.
Yes OP...this is being talked about. Being from Syracuse I'm not even going to talk about our game tonight however the Louie game it was obvious. People have yet to understand that there's a third area of gameplay to consider everyone judges the players but wheres the call outs on the ref game? This issue is getting more prevalent especially after tonight's high profile games..the NCAA has their hands full. Theres changes ahead thats for sure..

you can go back a couple minutes though and see the missed foul by syracuse on a layup attempt. that should count too to be fair

I agree! There were so many poor calls or non-calls in the Mich/Cuse game that it was a distraction to the game itself.

Some refs just wanted face time - it was all about them.

What a shame.
