Officials gave 90% of calls to TN to drag them back in game

We know the drill - only game going on, try to keep the game relatively close to keep the casual non-partisan fan tuned in

TN 20 FTA Houston 4 FTA

It’s been this way for years
I was hoping for a loss around 40 but 30 would suffice.

Tenn is doing the same thing Conn is in that the state political officials are pulling strings for them. Though they cant make a final four because they dont have ESPN on their side like UConn does. I mean the Tenn AG sued the NCAA last year to keep them away from investigating tampering etc to protect their post season run (LOL still couldnt make a final four though)

No such thing as a fair whistle anymore. It's entertainment not sports.

Officiating apologists.... 3 2 1

Why is it always about the officials? Duke will not get the benefit of a crooked whistle anymore than Houston. These officials call the game to the best of their ability. It seems that whatever team people want to win, the other teams gets help from the official. Ten damn refs could not have helped Tennessee back into that game. TN could not contest Houston's shot therefore they were never close enough to the shooter to foul him. I wonder if the Houston fans feel like the refs hosed them?

It’s a fake reality show to draw eyeballs

4 one seeds in Final Four will do it
Was there a team that you feel lost due to refs that would have beaten any of the one seeds? Florida was the only team that really had close games but Clayton won those games not the officials. Clayton became the best clutch player in the country.

Texas Tech left 4 points on the foul line

You must not be able to understand fouls in todays game. What the hell does wrestling have to do with basketball officiating? The thing I can't understand why you think officials cheats for a team. I know you must think every lose we had this year was due to the officials. If you are watching the Auburn/MI St game, howis the officiating? Both teams have beat the hell out of each other. They have called the game poorly but poorly both ways. The only cheating I have noticed this year in all games that I have watched is the lack of charging. They are cheating good defensive plays by always give the call as a block. This is for all teams.
