Big 10 officials are notorious for allowing rough play but the amount of physical play under both baskets during the UM/UT game was beyond belief. I think they did a good job of "letting them play" and the traveling call on Dozier/Dorsey's "same team tie up" took guts because a UT player (Chism maybe?) was in the play and he could have easily been called for a push.
On the game winning shot, Smith was fouled twice and still made a tough turnaround for the win. I think Dorsey should have been tossed several times for his behavior and his attempt to get in Prince's face on the FT line was bush league.
