@michigain1310 @ctkevb He says that here only to avoid getting fined. He’s being snarky, as he absolutely loathes James Breeding - it’s well documented, he got T’d twice and lost 4 of the 6 games Breeding officiated THIS SEASON

Michigan was/is the better team. We also played well enough to win this game.
Did everything we could.
Don’t think we got a fair shake.

@matthewwinick You clearly didn’t watch the same game as everyone else

I'm sorry, but if you are feeling this way about this game, you DO NOT know ball.
The refs have been tremendous in this game, and the foul discrepancy is ENTIRELY scheme and personnel related.

The fouls are like 15-5 right now. It’s impossible to be this 1-sided call wise. The officiating is very poor.
English
@EvanMiya LOL not a chance! This game was very even until the refs gave every advantage to Michigan
English
We had more talent this year in college basketball arguably than any year in history.
Michigan was the clear best team this year, beating every team in the tournament comfortably.
In light of that context, they have to be in the conversation as one of the greatest ever.
English
No foul was called on this play to end the first half
English
@ESPNInsights 25 points off free throws. Was not a fair fight
English
Michigan scored 61 of its 69 points from the paint or free throw line in the win ✨
The Wolverines' 36 paint points were the most allowed by UConn all tournament 😮
English
@JayhawkTakeover Not sure what the context of that quote is (makes no sense) but we play to win. If you don’t win the natty, we’re not celebrating being runner up - You’re either the champ, or you’re not.
So yeah, we came up empty.

UConn fans… just remember, this is a black eye on the legacy of your program.
Losing in the title game is WORSE than going 12-18 and not qualifying.
These are the rules you have put forth.

@alexinman True, but also just use your eyes 👀 they don’t lie

This might be a good time to remind everyone that Michigan was #42 in the country in fewest fouls per game. UConn was #243.
Say it with me: some teams foul more than others.
Roger Ayers Ref Tracker@AyersRefTracker
Maybe, just maybe, UConn is fouling more and that’s why they’ve been called for more fouls?
English
@BFW Fouls were out of whack in the first half for who exactly? They got whistled just for touching a Michigan player
English
I know people thought UConn got a bad whistle tonight but they chose to play that way. It was the only chance they had.
Fouls were out of whack in the first half but second half I thought it was even officiating. Michigan was just better.
English
@RGIII You forgot to mention Michigan’s 25 points off free throws from phantom fouls. I watched the game, the officiating was horrific
English
Michigan was clearly the better team. They shot 38% from the field and 13% from 3 point range, got out rebounded, had fewer assists and still won the National Championship on their off day. #GOBlue
English
UConn fans crying about the fouls can't have it both ways
You can't play overly aggressive defense all over the place and NOT expect them to call it
I get that as a strategy - it's what i do in men's leagues - but it's pretty clear here they NEED to stop fouling

Wild sequence. One Michigan player causes THREE players from UCONN to fall in just a couple of seconds. The first was not a foul.
English
Michigan: 25 pts from FTs, won by 6. Nice job refs

Alex Karaban was called for a Flagrant 1 foul for a "hook and hold" on this play
