This could be said about any sport. Yes it is hard for officials to make correct calls 100%.  
However, referring to women college basketball only in its growth popularity and its current status….Has there been any investigation/s of officiating controlling a game trying to cover betting point spreads…or not cover point spreads….or who wins vs who loses (meaning yes, of officials betting on games)?  The amount of money they make vs point spread betting would increase pay.  A conspiracy maybe, maybe not.
