I'm not sure it was not an over the back call at the end. I think the refs did a good job and let the players determine the game, but if I'm Georgia I'm pissed I do not get that call in my gym.

Agreed completely that it should have been called over the back....

I've never really understood this. The "let the players determine the game," even if they did so by fouling.

I don't agree with it either, but you rarely ever see a ref call a foul to decide a game even if there is contact.

The SEC is a clusterf*ck right now. This loss, while not good for X, doesn't surprise me. Look at UK and Alabama last night. The West is pretty much useless and no one wants to pull ahead in the East.

I completely agree. If a player fouls another player on the final play of the game then he indeed did help decide the outcome. The official who doesn't call an obvious foul is the one who stole the outcome from the hands of the players.

Seth Davis said on FSR this morning "Georgia is one of those teams we're going to look at in the Elite Eight and wonder how they got there".

The guy was pulled to the floor from behind, it was a no brainer over the back call. I am fine with not calling a bump or a nudge. But if the contact is that apparent, you have to call that foul. Even the kid from Tennessee stated he was surprised they didn't call a foul.

True, and I'm usually fine with that if it's just contact. But what I saw last night was rape. I don't understand how I can blow my rape whistle on that but the ref can't blow his game whistle.
