Damn...good call. Reps

400 bad calls so can't blame 1 but would like to see it replayed from there.

Not sure they can review a call wasn't made. They didn't call anyone out of bounds. But definitely missed.

Can you UNC all calm down about Roys style of coaching and his issues now, during every game and season??

Also, those referees were beyond horrendous. Collins 4th was a post up. The tip?? Berry didn't foul, and compound with a flagrant? Not to mention the rest of the half...but, worst of all, taking the ball away from Gonzaga and letting unc run 3 more seconds off when Meeks was CLEARY out of bounds. Not as bad as the "save" in the first half, but more impactful.

Was that not the appropriate cap to this tourney? Few great games and fewer great finishes.

Nah, play on. Watched it about 10x in slo mo after mhs pointed that out. Never got a good pic of ball but ball was pinned between Zaga arm and Meeks leg...whistle for jump ball had not happened yet.

Ball grazed the UNC shoe creating a weird spin that made the easy looking gather a tough spinner and Gonzaga bobbled it.

Not so fast. I e-mailed the NCAA about Meeks hand being out of bound. They should penalize UNC for that as well as subsequently finishing the game with an inaccurate score.

I propose next year in championship game they use 2 dads of players from top seed and 1 Dad of player from lower seeded championship game and let those 3 guys referee.....I think they'd do better.

The officiating throughout the tournament was just atrocious. I was pissed last year during the title game when they called a bunch of touch fouls. They took it to a completely new level this time. 44 freaking fouls tonight.

In defense of the refs....they distracted from the fact these guys shot the ball like an 8th grade CYO team

Carolina only had 4 turnovers. In a game that was THAT ugly, I'm amazed.

Nigel Williams-Goss interview just now on ESPN was so hard to watch. Really sucks to be on the losing end of a championship game. Feel bad for the Zags.

They must have recovered a bunch of loose balls before they became turnovers!
