The refs are human and I think they have unconscious bias that gets in the way of making the right call at times.

Not just unconscious bias. Refs are human and so they also have conscious bias, like the rest of us. And as part-time refs, they have their weekday jobs (middle school principals, high school teachers, accountants, ranchers, etc.) and all their co-workers and employers who no doubt let their favorite teams be known.
