Michigan State is playing great basketball right now. I think they would cover 7 points.

For those of you that are interested, the officials for tonight's Championship game are:

Curtis Shaw, Tony Greene, and Tom O'Neill.

Do the officials advance in the tournament like the teams do? I thought I heard that somewhere. And if so, how does T. Greene make the championship?

If I'm not mistaken, none of these guys worked a game until the Sweet 16. The NCAA tries to "save the best for last."

As for Tony Greene getting a final....I'm pretty sure this is his 3rd final in the past 4 years. You may not care for him, but he's pretty solid with his whistle.

I've done a little research and here's what I've got:

Curtis Shaw has worked 3 games in the tournament so far, including the MSU/Louisville game.

Tony Greene has also worked 3 games, including the MSU/UofL game.

Tom O'Neill has only worked one game (the Villanova/Pittsburgh game).

I have no idea how these three particular guys were picked, but in my opinion it's a very nice crew.

Thanks for the research! I don't have anything against Tony Greene, I think it was more of a Billy G. thing that made him seem like a bad ref because BCG was always yelling at him. However, Billy did that with most refs. I just know people kept mentioning Tony Greene being a bad official throughout the season. Congrats to him for making the championship game.

I picked them in my bracket but considering they are up 17 with under 2 mins to go I think I was right, sadly.
