not true at all
There are 96 officials that work the 1st round, half of those work the 2nd round. I know of 7 Pac-10 officials who worked the 1st round, and only 3 made the next round-they were on separate crews...all 3 refs that worked the conference championship worked the 1st round.
Not sure how things work after that, other than that there are 10 officials sent to the final 4. (6 for the semis, 3 for the finals, and 1 alternate)
