Very good write up. I definitely agree UNC is a good enough team to have been able to win the tournament without the lopsided officiating. I wish we could have seen a tournament with semi-even officiating so it didn't leave so much controversy and bad feeling surrounding what is really a great accomplishment for the UNC program (first NCAA tournament).

I hope UNC pulls an upset. It looks like the newest bracketology has them as a 15 playing Texas...if that's the case there's not much hope of an upset unfortunately. I'm hoping that if they do get a 15 they play BYU instead. Would be fun to see a Jimmer vs ...mini Jimmer (Beitzel) matchup.
