I Feel Like An Idiot Saying This

When Jimmer got the steal (foul) at the stripe on Willis it was basically the same thing that Willis (I think it was Willis) did to him which lead to Wallace picking up a steal and put UNLV at the line.

THIS is absolutely correct and those two inconsistent calls killed us in the end. The only other real complaint I had about the officiating was the amount of handchecking Willis was allowed to do throughout the game, BUT since Willis has a rep for being an outstanding and physical defender, I can understand the refs giving him some leeway.

The game was called like home court match-up, slightly favoring the home team. I feel there were a few calls against UNLV that shouldn't have been made either, certainly considerably fewer, but the refs didn't lose that game for us.
