Dick Vitale was among those who took issue with game officials after Virginia held off Auburn at the Final Four thanks in part to a disputed call and a questionable non-call in the final seconds of the game.
Vitale, the longtime college basketball analyst, said on Twitter that a “clearly missed’’ double-dribble by Virginia’s Ty Jerome cost Auburn the game. Virginia won 63-62 in the national semifinal matchup.
“Why not let refs use monitor in the last minute to determine a rules situation?’’ Vitale tweeted. “A game like the Virginia / Auburn should not end on such an OBVIOUS MISSED CALL/ clearly missing a call like a Double dribble to effect the outcome is ABSURD.’’

But Vitale said he agreed with a disputed, last-second foul call Auburn’s Samir Doughty that resulted in Virginia’s Kyle Guy making three free throws that clinched the victory for Virginia.
“…my heart breaks for @AuburnMBB as no doubt Kyle Guy was fouled but he NEVER EVER should have been on the foul line as 3 refs clearly missed a DOUBLE DRIBBLE,’’ Vitale tweeted. “…What a gut-wrenching way to lose for Auburn.’
