NCAA tournament refs

Do they call more contact fouls, or will they allow the hand checking? If they don't allow the hand checking, I like Iowa's chances.

From what I have seen recently, the NCAA's are much more free flowing. Not sure if that's due to more fouls being called or what. It is different than the B1G IMO.

I think we will be at an advantage with NCAA refs vs B1G refs

The first few rounds pander to the style of the mid-majors. Open race, lots of daring three-balls, maybe contact allowed a little more if there's a chance for an upset.

But once the tournament becomes a blue blood fest, it's basically all glorified conference games.
