The foul at the end of the game was a serious thing. As the guy was shooting the defender ran into his legs and altered his body. If someone had hit an Auburn three point shooter on the follow through, which has less effect on a shot, they would gladly accept the three shots. I don’t see where the griping is coming from. The guy’s shot was effected.

That's a very easy way to injure someone. They had to call that.

Beats me, I didn't watch.

I wish they had called a foul on the Crieghton guy when he fouled Trevor Releford in the NCAA tournament in Greensboro.

If they call the double dribble that never happens. The way they had called the game up til that point letting a lot go it was something that they probably don't call up until then.

I've ssen a couple of posters say Auburn committed a foul on the double dribble play, but it wasn't called.

Harper tugged at Guys jersey briefly before the DDribble.

Personally I don't think you call the foul there. Look at the Virginia player's reaction after he misses. He doesn't turn to the ref to ask about a foul, he turns away, says "oh my god", and puts his shirt over his head. He didn't think it was a foul... why should I?

The defender definitely tried to foul before the missed double dribble. Thing is, no one had a clue that the double dribble had even occurred until the slow motion replay was shown.
Hit the 2nd FT and it changes the complexion and Virginia likely gets nothing more than a half court heave to possibly tie it.

I didn't necessarily *see* a foul at the time, but saw an awkward shot. The replay showed that the Auburn player's chest hit the guy's legs prior to him releasing the shot. The shot so happened to end up about as short as the player's body had been pushed away from the rim.

For me and why I though it was a bad call was because the entire game the refs were letting those guys play. There were sooo many fouls in the paint that they let go on both ends of the court. I'm talking literally hold arms and rastlin' WWE style.
So then when they throw the flag on that 3-pointer when there was minimal contact it becomes questionable. It was definitely a foul but calling it was questionable. It was ticky-tack. But the overall outcome made me happy.
And I say this as someone who did and always will actively root against au.

yep, Aubie still had a foul to give and Harper was trying to get a foul called, but the refs didnt call it.

That’s utter nonsensical thinking. The radical corruption scientist guy doesn’t think the earth is round so why should I? The vegan doesn’t think eating a 32 oz ribeye is good so why should I?
How about the ref said it was a foul so why shouldn’t I ? Or better yet, my eyes saw the foul so I believe it was the right call.

We had seen a lot of these calls made in the tournament so far. Hell, AU almost lost to New Mexico State in the same way.
I get that it was ticky-tack but its a foul by the letter of the law. Even Barkley admitted that it was a good call.
Wish the refs had been that ticky-tack in the last play against Clemson in Tampa.

In no way, shape, or form was that ticky-tacky. You can't take out the legs of a shooter.

the uva guy kicked the ball, clear as a bell, right in front of the ref. is kicking the ball no longer a turnover? no call. double dribble, no call.
my issue with the "ticky tack" call at the end is real simple. given all the crap they let go on the entire game. i mean guys getting spun around on layups with no call. in the lens of the entire game, that most definitely was a ticky tack call.

He didn't kick the ball.

Given the context of how rough the game was played up to that point and not calling fouls it absolutely was a tickytack call. Again, I'm happy about it but I call it like I see it.

It was a foul and it wasn’t a bad call. My whole bitch is that up until the last 10 seconds of the game, the refs had consistently let them play. It was a rough, physical game which is usually the norm when you get that deep in the tourney and it’s also the norm (usually) to let ‘em play. But on the last possession by UVA, the refs completely lost their shite.
Auburn is trying to intentionally foul the guy just before he dribbled it off his foot. The Auburn player grabbed his jersey. Should’ve been a foul, stoppage of play and the double dribble never happens. They don’t call that and the double dribble happens. Again, no call.
I get that it’s an obscure instance and the fans didn’t pick up on it right away. But you’ve got several officials out there that are supposed to be some of the best in the game and they all missed it. This isn’t some 1A high school game, this was the Final Four. How do all of the officials miss that?
Then the intentional foul is called after the DD. Now some are saying that because the refs were out of position and had a bad angle on the foul, UVA actually inbounded the ball farther down the court nearer the 3 point arc than nearer to half court where it should have been, making the inbounds pass into the corner easier so that Guy gets a shot off.
Then there’s the call on the shot. Correct call, but a little ?? just because of the way the rest of the game went. In their defense, that has been stressed as a point of emphasis this year so he made the call. But the whole last sequence was a shitshow of officiating gaffes and eyebrow raising events.
