Any discussion of referees in any sport should start with these words: It all depends on whose ox is gored.

I would like to see some consistency between the games. It is fine to say that in each game, the players have to see how the refs are calling the game, but is it fair for the players to have to make huge adjustments from one game to the next? Case in point is the last two UConn games. Very physical game with Baylor (too physical, actually), and 30 fouls called. Far less physical game with Arizona and 44 fouls called. That's ~50% more fouls called in a less physical game. I think the disparity in the refereeing from game to game can be too wide and it leaves the players guessing what is okay and what isn't.
The disparity is Dee Kantner, UConn's fouling seems to be higher in the games called by her.
