didnt i hear you joining in about the refs hosing maryland in the semi final game that year vs duke????
but when a guy (jason williams) has 2 fouls at the 8 minute mark of the first half and the refs refuse to call the third foul when he has his feet off the ground and is parallel to the ground on the gardners back who then falls to the ground, then yeah i start to wonder about the regs and their calls, that one was indisputable but not called........
those two teams were very even and calling a third on williams would have tilted the game toward arizona for a while, thus a no call on an obvious call changed the dynamic of the game for a while but wasnt the reason arizona lost........arizona still should have overcome and won the game and were down 4 with 3 mins left but couldnt hit another shot......so no the refs didnt cost us, arenas getting injured vs mich state and playing with a seperated shoulder and he and gardner going about 5-20 from the field cost us much more than the refs
