To get it out of the way: Yes, a prominent late-game call went against Duke.

It happened. With a little over two minutes left in a two-point game, Central Florida’s B.J. Taylor airballed — or was it a brick? — a jumper that, after an offensive rebound and a pass, ended in Tacko Fall’s hands underneath the basket, and he dunked it home for a 74-70 UCF lead with 2:09 to play. If Taylor’s shot did not hit rim, it would be a shot-clock violation.

Officials took a look at it — and another, and another — and eventually conceded that they could not see clearly enough whether it touched the rim. A questionable call went against Mike Krzyzewski.

Beyond that, though? Well, Duke got a few breaks.

The frenetic, fantastic finish to the Blue Devils’ 77-76 exhilarating exhale of a victory over the Knights to reach the Sweet 16 Sunday has left plenty of Monday morning officiating, with analysts pointing to the final sequence, in which several whistles could have gone the other way.

It started with Zion Williamson’s game-changing drive, the Duke sensation, down three, taking control of the game, putting his shoulder down and willing his way to the hoop. Taylor was on the other end of the runaway train, ending up on the floor, and Williamson spun and reached Fall, the final boss of his mission. Fall lifted his arms. Williamson went up, got a roll and a call.

“It was a close play, a block-charge play. They didn’t call it,” Taylor told reporters, via The State, afterward about the no-call.

“Obviously I was in foul trouble. So I stayed there with my hands up. There was body contact. Could’ve gone either way,” Fall told reporters about the call officials did make.

“Aubrey Dawkins and @Coach_Dawkins deserved better. That WAS a charge. The game plan was perfect. Shame,” came from ESPN analyst Seth Greenberg, referring to the block/charge on Taylor.

To the officials, it was not a charge. Instead, it was Williamson at the line for one shot with Duke down one. He released, it bounded off the front rim, and there was RJ Barrett waiting, able to snatch the rebound and put it right back up to put Duke ahead.

But did a careful shove put him in that position? You be the judge:

And look at the opposite side of the lane. Javin DeLaurier, in clearing out Collin Smith, appeared to link arms with him, keeping Smith’s left arm down. It’s a call college basketball is focusing on after Purdue center Isaac Haas broke his elbow last year by being hooked-and-held.

“I talked to two Final Four officials — they blew this call,” Greenberg, the former Virginia Tech coach, said on ESPN. “That’s the way it is. You look right here, this is a point of emphasis in college basketball today. Hook-and-hold in free throw situations. … That is a classic hook-and-hold. That’s what they’re looking for, that’s what they’re calling, that’s why they go to the monitor.

“… I’ve talked to multiple Final Four officials. … There’s no way that officiating crew will move on to the next round.”

But Duke will, as will fans’ fair or unfair anger.
