He was short, that was not a reason to throw stuff on field.There were missed calls, but still not a reason to throw stuff on field making our fan base look like idiots.Somebody in the other thread said it perfectly:
“What are you gonna do, take another TD from us?”
Best way to avoid this in the future is to have some accountability with officiating and make sure games are called correctly and fairly.
I agree but we don’t need this look while we are trying to dig ourselves from the grave. Another large fine may be coming because of this and they’ll use us to set an example I’m sureSomebody in the other thread said it perfectly:

And to add to that there needs to be a rule regulating fake injuries.I know every team is guilty of it but every play is excessiveSomebody in the other thread said it perfectly:

Not good - this look probably won’t help us in whatever penalties they decide to give us from the other investigation too

I can’t stand Greg Sankey. Maybe he should focus more on hiring competent officials.Not good - this look probably won’t help us in whatever penalties they decide to give us from the other investigation too

Yea. No way the SEC lets something like this happen to bama or uga this year.I’m so sick of blaming the fans. The simple truth here is we are tired of being on the wrong end of these close games with crappy officiating. To say nothing of everyone losing site that the OM players were instigating to fans during all this.
Ask yourself if the game would have been called this way had we been Bama or AU or GA and then tell me the frustration and lashing out isn’t understandable.
Unless you are the big dogs of the conference or you have a cozy seat with top cover in Birmingham this conference sucks. They have zero regard for fair play or even the appearance of competent officiating.
The injuries hurt and the calls hurt the throwing stuff was embarrassing. But we have something special happening on the hill and the recruits have to see it and know they could help the team win that game. The 102 thousand fans should let recruits know that this is a special place now and they know mistakes happen and everyone loves redemption and second chances.This in conjunction with the ongoing investigation, injury of key players which will limit the win total this year, and no the non-stop negative press (making Lane a victim) can’t possibly help us in recruiting. Talk about self inflicted wounds...
With facial recognition technology and technology in general, it's pretty easy to accurately levy a $1000 penalty and ban from future games for a period of time...I'd expect something like this coming from UT if not SEC. If the SEC fined Kentucky $250K for rushing the field, I'd expect something at least in this range for delaying the game for 20 min, and endangerment.2 comments
1. They said "the actions of fans", not some fans, not the actions of a few, not the student section..."the actions of fans".
2. It'll happen again when there's a call that don't go our way.
