Juulie,

I did not work D1 before the WNBA, but two of the three officials in the Title game are WNBA officials.
There WERE opportunities to blow the whistle, but no one was tackled or murdered, and with the score basically out of reach of UT, I quess they wanted a CLEAR-CUT foul.
I think the philosophy is if the team behind has an opportunity to still win the game, give the quick foul.
Why let someone get hurt?
On the other hand, Tennessee didn't do a very good job FORCING the officials to blow the whistle in that situation.
