I write this mostly tongue-in-cheek (as I play amateur conspiracy theorist). But as many have complained about the officiating in the Big Dance this year I have come to the conclusion this is the NCAA's way to set it up for Coach K to, at the least, face UNC in the Final Four, if not win it all.
I first came to this conclusion seeing how the refs did in Gonzaga (clearing an easier path for Duke) last night against Arkansas. Yes, I know the ft disparity, but if you watched the game the Hogs basically assaulted the Zags and couldve had twice the fouls. Theyd throw the ball into the low post, knock poor Homgren off balance, then when he's falling over theyd jump into him....and it would be a foul on Holmgren?!
Now theyve got Cinderella St Peters knocking out the two toughest teams in the opposite bracket (Kentucky and Purdue), to set up UNC for a clear path to matchup with Duke in the Final Four- a ratings Bonanza.
Obviously this is a joke, and when UCLA knocks out UNC tonight and Arkansas runs Duke off the court tomorrow it will look even more foolish- but still spread the word and dont let the NCAA and the powers that be pull the wool over your eyes.
