There were horrific missed calls or bad calls by the refs both ways in UK-UW. But the key play was one Kentucky did to themselves. Just prior to the missed shot clock violation, three Wildcat players watched what they assumed was an airball go out of bounds. They were up two at the time with about 2 and a half left. Instead of any one of them grabbing the ball easily, and heDing down court to go up perhaps by 4 or 5, the ball was awarded to Wisky by virtue of the ball having been tipped by a Kentucky defender. What followed was the basket on what should have been a shot clock violation. Game tied, then a killer trey, and the game belonged to the Badgers,

One of my pet peeves is not grabbing a ball, under the assumption that it will be your ball. Don't officiate; just play.
