I can't believe they didn't reverse the call after they went to the monitor. You could clearly see that Meeks touched the ball.

Welp, Arkansas found a way to lose this one. Some on the refs but they also started taking dumb shots.

And Jackson with a punk move rather than running out the clock.

Can't blame this all on the refs. UNC played great defense down the stretch and Arkansas had terrible shot selection on their last possessions.

Officials handed that game to UNC. completely. Ridiculous. Arkansas deserved that W.

Officiating in general has been terrible this tourney.

The Northwestern missed goal tending and then technical was a 4 point swing. Gave the game away.

What the hell was Arkansas doing offensively down the stretch? Beating the ball into the floor without movement for 20+ seconds, and trying to do something frantic in the last 5 or 6 seconds. What terrible basketball after such a great effort.

Yeah I've never even had a word really lol. But my moms from there and I was always with my papaw or somebody from there and they knew everybody when I was around. He used to tell me I'd get shot though lol
I don't have any family in eastern Ky but I'm there a lot for work.

Arkansas was a disaster down the stretch. They had some calls go against them, but they can only blame themselves. When you start your offense with six seconds on the shot clock and are 30 feet from the basket --- every time --- you're not going to win. I don't think Arkansas got a single decent shot the last four minutes.

Now it's time for Us to go get a win.

And that my friend is why Ark. will never make a run to a FF. Their coach locked up and didn't know what to call or draw up a play to break UNCheat down. Just dribble, dribble dribble and chunk is not an offensive play. That part of the game is where coaching absolutely matters. Thanks Coach K

Hats of to Arkansas for staying in it as long as they did. Let's go RI.
