Yep!! I still think the officials from a different conference should call SEC games, and the SEC sends refs to call other conference games. Then have a neutral crew call interconference game. It would not be that hard to do. SEC calls Big 10 one weekend, and Big 10 calls SEC. If one of the crew tries to show favoritism in a big game to try to cause a loss to one of the teams who may be a playoff contender, then the same can happen from the refs calling their games that weekend. It wouldn’t be that hard.
It will all shake out somewhere, somehow, between calling your own fouls and the flopfense.Umm, all the other conferences said no thanks to take the SEC refs…
After the Pitt game, I would rather not have ACC refs either.
How about going old school. Call your own fouls. would probably work out better for Tennessee…
Interesting! Thanks for the info.@volbeast33 had this info a few weeks ago, and I posted that I laughed at the USCe game when I saw Dayne Davis down for about the 5th time this year. We score so quickly that it gives the defense more time, AND it doesn't effect the flow of the opponent's offense like OM did. Heupel is a smart dude.
That was as kind as you could say that, but I cannot resist translating into layman's terms:This is such a bad take and has the empathy and emotional intelligence of a caveman.
There is a 0% chance he said "I know I have other options but I don't want to get tackled - even though I've been playing football all my life and have been tackled thousand of times - so I'm going to avoid that at the cost of my other options to possibly win the game."
There is a much higher chance that he simply panicked and didn't have the mental fortitude to process his options and possibly thought he was stopping the clock by not getting tackled in bounds.
I wish Joe Milton had never came here..if he had not, precious and valuable preparation time and effort would not have been completely wasted on him that could have been focused on Hooker and Bailey
I find myself wondering if the sheer number of bad injuries is a function of the system's tempo.
