One would have to imagine that T and C may not be working next weekend. They are probably painfully aware of that as well.

Unfortunate miss, but the NCAA tournament is an officiating glass house, and officials understand the accountability involved.

Let's hope not! Both of those officials are Final Four quality having worked the Elite Eight in recent years.

So is Doug Sirmons. And that weird OOB call that was not on his line doomed him last year. Normally he's a shoe-in final four official.

But I understand your sentiment and I agree with you in that context.

You know, there's gotta be SOME criteria for JD Collins to use to narrow the field from Week 1 to Week 2 to the Final Four.

Why shouldn't it be a missed call that decides such a thing?

Those guys know what's at stake. They sign on for it.

I agree. There are plenty of "Final Four" officials to choose from. IOW there are more than 6 guys that can work those 2 games.

I have to trust that the "system" will take account for all the CC, NCC, CI, and NCI to determine who moves on. Does a decision that happens with 18 seconds left in the game weigh the same with one that happens at 4:54 left in the game? We shall see.

If all things being equal IMO, the crew with the F1 in the Ark-SH game should advance to the next round than the Gz-NW or Ky-NKy crew.

I think you're right Rich, it probably will be taken into account, but I think a mistake like this should be punished less severely than one like the correctable error timing mistake that Camron Rust brought up in another thread. (For those who didn't read that, officials put 4 seconds back on the clock at the 12:30 mark of the 2nd half when a correctable error was discovered.) While totally irrelevant to the game, the correctable error was a kicked rule, where as this was simply a missed call. No one I watched with caught it live either, it wasn't until replays made it clear what had happened.
