Tar Heel fans are hurt. So hurt that one has petitioned the President to overturn the result of Monday’s Championship game and launch a full investigation into to the referees who officiated it.
This game was poorly officiated from the tip off to the end. It was a one sided called game all the way through. The officials called fouls against UNC that should have not been called and never called Villanova for the fouls they committed. The officials never called Villanova for multiple travel violations either. Also I want a complete investigation into the officials as it was them that decided the game not who played better.
I understand it was an extremely tough loss, but blaming the officials is the easy way out. Eventually Carolina fans will get over Monday’s loss to Villanova, but it will take a while.
