Hope the Lady Vols don't look past their Saturday game against most likely either SC or A&M. Ky may have a tough game Sat. also.

I haven't ever seen a group of women's college basketball refs that weren't stupid, so I'm betting they're there!

I'm afraid I agree with you on this one. They will no doubt have the most SENIOR refs for the tournament, but that just means that that crew will be the ones who have sucked the LONGEST.
