All of the Referees for the Final Four had assignments for games the second weekend, and the Final Four Referees were selected based on "performance" in the tournament.
Interestingly, none of the Referees from the MU v. Fla. game received an assignment for the Final Four. This just provides some confirmation, in my mind at least, that the flagrant foul call was blatantly blown.
Clearly we did not lose the game because of the missed call. Just in my mind this is confirmation of the blown call in specific, and the crappy officiating for the game in general.
No Higgins? No Burr? I thought they were so great...
Some hacker needs to infiltrate the NCAA/BE network and wikileak the Referee "Performance" spreadsheet.

As bad as those two may be, there were actually games this year for MU where i would have welcomed either one, or both of them. I canpromise you this, that flagrant elbow WOULD have been called had either one of them been officiating that game.

Can't promise anything with these guys. Eyes and mind can turn off whenever.
