So just playing devil’s advocate year but how many seed lines did poor officiating cost us this year? You can start with that Memphis game which absolutely should have been a win if not for the blown over the back call at the end…that win would have kept us from playing Dayton and Colorado which would have dramatically impacted our SOS. There are another 3-4 games that were 100% impacted by poor reffing. Just off the top of my head the 5 point loss to Creighton where they took 10 more free throws than us and the loss at Seton Hall where Solo Ball got tackled which resulted in a fumble to lose at the buzzer. The 2 point loss at Nova where we shot 54% to their 43%, outrebounded them by 9 and had 23 assists to their 11 but lost at the free throw line (AK’s misses at the end and Nova took 9 more free throws). I could go on, but by my rough calculation the awful whistle this team got probably cost us 2-3 seed lines and now we’re staring down at having to play a top 4 team in round 2. Nothing to do about it now but win the damn BE tourney and get off the 8 line.
