As for the officiating, I thought that UK got the raw end of the deal in the 1st half, but you'd be a fool not to admit that the refs called UK's way until the last 90 seconds or so.
I will admit, I didn't think that Wall should've picked up the charge on Williams, but there were several other instances in the 2nd half that had me shaking my head. The 2nd half, in my opinion, was far worse than the 1st.
It was one of the worst officiated games I've ever seen. You can't blame the refs when you shoot that poorly from the field. Basketball 101 says: hit your shots, rebound, play defense. If you do all those and lose because of shoddy officiating, then you can complain.
If we would've gotten beat, I'd have probably felt the same way you do. Fact is, it was piss poor both ways. You can't say the better team on Saturday wasn't UT...UK layed an egg, plain and simple. I do think UK is a Final 4 team, though...UT MIGHT make it the Sweet 16...Doesn't mean that UT wasn't the better squad for the afternoon.
