    Best Championship game since 2008. Didn't like either team much so I'm not really thrilled or disappointed. The reffing was horrendous, including that first half (someone mentioned the reffing in the first half was fine. Sorry, you're blind). Seemed like Michigan got boned on more calls but who knows. I'm just hoping Kentucky doesnt win again next year.

    I'm not sure one team got boned more than another in terms of the refs, but if they get the first clear goal tend right 1 minute into the game, Michigan has the game tied with 2 minutes to go... chew on that for a sec.


    And that's not even counting Burke's block that was called a foul.



    1 blown call 1 minute into the game changed the entire outcome of the game.





    (still think Louisville deserved to win b/c they played better team ball)

    Both teams got shafted for sure, but the calls that went against Michigan were far more glaring and had a much bigger impact. Louisville was and is the better team, no doubts.

    I already stated that he shot better than I thought, but hogged the ball and made poor choices from the 7 min mark on. The ball movement was non-existent to the point that the little white guy wasn't even touching the ball on Michigan possessions when he was in there. If his teammates don't trust him that's a problem.

    The 2nd foul on Burke that put him on the bench was atrocious as well(hancock's 3 in the corner)...cant remember how many free throws he put down on that exchange

    I wish they would call offensive fouls when the shooter tries to jump into the defender like that. So annoying.

    I didn't watch one second of this game last night. Heard it was ok. Overall, I'm fine with the champ. Best team won. Pretty shitty tournament overall though, and hopefully college basketball makes changes now that improve the product, because its reached a point where even casual fans are tuning out.

    i think it's evident there needs to be some kind of replay rule changes. and ive been a big proponent of decreased time outs for years.

    I watch a fair amount of hoops during the year, but seeing four straigh days of games really underlines how bad the sport has gotten. And frankly, making changes is more than ok provided it results in a better product. Guys sliding in front of drivers all game is nothing I wanna see ever again.

    A quick way to make the TO situation better is to eliminate the scheduled TV timeout when a coach calls a TO in the media timeout period. It sucks so bad when the coach calls a TO at 15:56 of the first half (first TO of each half automatically stretched to a full), then 2 minutes of commercials, then a foul at 15:51, another two minutes of commercials.

    I know it doesn't happen often enough to fully ameliorate the situation, but on the other hand coaches will take more TOs in that period knowing that they will get a full when they'd normally only get a 20.

    I wonder if the NCAA would consider adding extra refs for Final 4 games, like MLB does for playoffs.

    Have a ref under each basket for blocks/charges/3 second calls.

    Might help

    I think the NCAA just needs to look at how their officials call games where one or both teams play really aggressive defense.

    I'm not knocking the likes of Louisville or VCU, because they do play tenacious defense, but they also foul a TON. I don't think teams should be rewarded just for the simple fact they're really aggressive.

    Hmm let's see...

    Field goal percentage: 2010- 39.1%, 2013- 48.6%

    Turnover percentage: 2010- 16.2%, 2013- 16.2%

    Pace: 2010- 123 possessions, 2013- 130 possessions

    Fouls/possession: 2010- 30% of possessions had a foul, 2013- 28.5% of possessions had a foul

    3 point percentage: 2010- 31.4%, 2013- 47.1%

    Effective field goal percentage: 2010- 44.1%, 2013- 70.6%

    Efficiency: 2010- 0.97 points per possession, 2013- 1.22 points per possession

    Percentage of turnovers that were steals: 2010- 45%, 2013- 57%

    So, how exactly was last night sloppy compared to 2010/almost any championship game?

    Since when do low shooting percentages equate to sloppy basketball?
