BTW, there was recently (last 2 or 3 yrs) a HUGE mess up in
the last few seconds of a tight D1 tourney game. Can you
name the refs? The game? The sitch?

Robert Strong, Lollie Sienz, and a veteran male from the east coast. Women's regional final between UCLA and someone. They allowed the thrower-in to run the baseline on a spot throw-in at the end of the game, and then the clock did not start on time, which allowed the winning basket to be scored when it should not have.
This play was the catalyst for the women's game to modify the end of game procedures as to when the officials leave the floor after a close game (less than 4 point difference).
The bad thing is, the officials thought they had nailed the game until the observor came in after the game. [/B][/QUOTE]
You got it! I believe the other team was Tennessee (not
sure) but I do know UCLA was playing on the other team's
home court, and of course UCLA ended up losing.
