That guy was fast enough to outrun UT's defense last year when he picked up that fumble though.

 

[LA Vol]

How many fouls do UK fans think they needed to win? UK shot twice as many FTs and were allowed to elbow our player in the face and have that foul called on the Vols. So... what did they expect-- a 3:1 advantage? 4:1?

 

[drvenner]

Is there a way to filter out posts about the refs?

We would only have 2 pages of game posts

Yea, that's ridiculous. I don't think we shot a free throw in the second half.

I thought they did have a 3:1 advantage

It wouldn’t surprise me if it doesn’t help with football recruiting as well.

Do you mean “would” or “does”?

There’s no such thing as SEC refs

That's not really true. The officials are contracted and usually work 2 or 3 conferences. Since they are contracted annually by the conference they are their officials. There is a conference employee that assigns officials to games. The SEC and most major conferences have offices relating to officiating where performances are reviewed and schools can make their complaints. They take their orders from headquarters like everybody else does relating to areas of emphasis. As an example, TV Teddy was booted from the B10 after last season for poor performance and showboating after having been contracted to them for over 30 years.

Yep. The Vols didn't shoot a FT in the second half and still won by 19.

 

[drvenner]

Definitely back to a projected #1

Lunardi FM said before the game that we would not move to a 1, even if we win.

Exactly, they’re private contractors. There is no such thing as Conference refs

They’re gonna be too bulky to move well

Tell that to that 4.33 DK just posted

The SEC office chooses each year who they contract. Then they assign which officials they want to work specific games. Before the season they explain the points of emphasis with officials as well as teams.

The officials they choose have track records relating to teams, # of fouls, type of fouls, etc. StatSheet was a site that formerly provided great info on it.

So if you know in advance Bayou Bengal's historical record, which they do since he has worked the SEC for a long time, why would you at the SEC office assign him to work an LSU game against the top team in the SEC? Answer: to achieve the desired result if at all possible. This is not hard to understand.

Today was the same as Lexington. We just beat UK and the officials badly to where they could not achieve the SEC office's desired result.

 

[Rishvol]

If Washington didn't play for Kentucky and had the same stats he wouldn't be in the conversation for POY

Cal told the CBS reporter at halftime that he thought that his guys were intimidated by the atmosphere. Said he can't remember when that was the case.

Loudest I’ve heard it since Lofton gave Durant a facial.

How did this get to the LSU ref lol.

Refs choose which conferences they work for, they work for multiple each year, and its a one year contract. dj carstensen would work for 6 different conferences. They are private contractors and there is no such thing as conference refs, no matter how you try to spin it. If there was there would be way more accountability.

 

[VolsnCards5]

Man, SEC gonna be super disappointed when LSU is regular season champs
