The controversial call that decided a national semifinal, Auburn’s Samir Doughty sidling up to an in-air Kyle Guy and affecting his landing from a 3-point shot?

That’s not the entirety of the outrage emerging from Virginia’s 63-62, heart-stopping win Saturday in Minneapolis, in which Guy sunk those three free throws to put the Cavaliers ahead.

No, it’s the play that led to Guy’s look from the corner, in which guard Ty Jerome hurried the ball upcourt, bounced it off his foot and re-started his dribble — a textbook double dribble that was somehow ignored by the refs (and CBS announcers until after the game).

“Why not let refs use monitor in the last minute to determine a rules situation?” ESPN college basketball legend Dick 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.”

Few are disputing the foul call on Doughty, which, while slight, was clear: His presence underneath Guy caused the Virginia shooting guard to twist on his way back down to the court. But just as indisputable was Jerome’s double dribble.

“I certainly credit Guy for making 3 FT, but he never should have been on line,” Vitale said. “Obvious double-dribble was missed. What a gut-wrenching way to lose for Auburn.”

CBS rules analyst Gene Steratore confirmed as much.

“As we start to watch Ty Jerome dribbling the basketball, it bounces off his back foot,” Steratore said. “It doesn’t go far either. There’s no defense that touches it. He regains possession with both hands and starts a new dribble sequence. By rule, this is a double dribble.”

After the game, the Tigers were despondent, though their energy was directed toward the Doughty foul call.

“NCAA needs to get some new refs,” guard Bryce Brown said on his way to the locker room.

“There are lots of calls during a game, and some you’re not going to get,” Auburn coach Bruce Pearl told reporters. “If that’s a foul, call it. Call it at the beginning of the game, call it in the middle of the game, call it at the end of the game.”
