This is my two cents worth but I think it's the other way around. The Syracuse-Ohio State was called too tightly. John Higgins and Tom O'Neill had a few calls where the contact was minimal I felt. Not that John Feinstein is an expert on officiating by any means, but I agree that some calls in that game were head scratchers.

I thought that yesterday's crew in the UNC-Kansas game let them play more and the product was better. I thought that Tony Greene, Doug Shows and James Breeding called a very good game.


We'll see what John Adams thinks by his choice of officials for the Final Four
