Why can’t the SEC have this type of officiating? Our conference is an abomination. Something has to change.

Yeah much better officiating.

Both crews that worked today in Nashville were horrible but the refs that did the State/Auburn game were atrocious.

Also, if I was a fan of an ACC team, I'd be pissed the tournament was in DC.

Why? It's fairly central isn't it?

Simple:

Good officiating = Good officials = can’t be bribed <> SEC

Nobody is traveling for the ACC tournament but UNC, Duke and State. Not playing this tournament in North Carolina is way overthinking it.

The central location is the only redeeming quality. There are other NBA arenas in the ACC's footprint.

Hotel room prices in the DC area are insane and this time of year there's school trips to DC over Spring Break which make availability even more difficult than normal.

Even if you get a room somewhere on the outskirts like Springfield and take the Metro to the area (the arena sits on a Metro station) you're still paying out the nose for a hotel room.

Doesn’t matter sport, SEC officiating is across the board questionable at best, and at face value, corrupt.

I live there now. Half the people waiting in line for doughnuts this morning were dressed in red. Great day to live in Raleigh. This afternoon I'll go to Burke Bros and I'm sure it's all anyone will be talking about.

ACC refs know real basketball. Traditionally the strongest basketball conference in the country. Unfortunately, doesn’t translate to SEC refs with football.

In the recent past they’ve played it in NYC. I don’t think anyone was going. They just announced it will alternate between Greensboro and Charlotte in the future.
