Kim Mulkey. Caitlin Clark. Ruined. In a highly anticipated women's basketball game between LSU and Iowa, the referees were the center of attention for all the wrong reasons. Several recent tweets highlighted just how poorly the officials performed during the game.

One tweet noted that the refs were "letting way too much physical play go on," while another suggested that they were "missing obvious calls left and right." Fans were particularly upset with a non-call in the final moments of the game, which many felt cost LSU the victory.

One user even went so far as to say that the refs were "actively ruining the game" and that they "should be ashamed of themselves." Others called for better training and accountability for officials at all levels of basketball.

Despite the controversy, both teams played hard and gave it their all on the court. In the end, Iowa came out on top, but many fans were left feeling frustrated and disappointed with the officiating.

As basketball season continues, it's clear that there is still much work to be done to improve the quality of officiating and ensure fair play for all teams involved.
