Criminally bad calls! (Merged)

[tnvols72]

The Fla and USCe game is pathetic, The refs basically handed the game to Fla. False start and holding on the same play that Fla scored on and the holding call was for at least 15 yds. Then on another score a WR picked on a DB that was plain as day. Its disgusting and not even for sure if Fla had a penalty called on them in the 2nd half.

Yeah, this is bad. Even the commentators are blasting the refs. 14 points to the refs.

It’s really difficult to have watched the second half of that game and not believe the refs actively worked to steer the outcome of the game.

I was watching that game hoping 'little chicken' would win. But those refs are helping the Gators way too much.

 

[imavolfan]

On that note, SC is playing good football right now. I am worried about that game.

Some nerve these refs have. Right after the fans go crazy about the holding call, they overlook offensive pass interference. Must have gotten strict orders from Birmingham

Yea , was thinking the same thing. I dont like Muschamp but he has every right to be pissed. I still dont think Fla is good. Lucky is what they are

 

[VolinMichigan]

Yea it’s been pretty bad. Horn didn’t help with the defensive holding that negated the int

You can almost see the instructions before the season starts. If its an all SEC contest one of the teams is ranked, you better think twice about throwing a flag to cause a ranked team to lose. Ditto on a higher ranked team losing to a lower ranked team.

That said today's game the way it was called seems like the zebras had money on the game. Really a poor bunch of calls against USCe.

That has nothing to do with the refs just screwing SC. If its a penalty then its a penalty but not calling penalties when its right in their face is BS.

I agree that SC has gotten a raw deal.

If its remotely close tonight ,which it wont be. but if it is , you can bet the refs will start throwing flags on Tn.

 

[volfaninky]

With that being said, SC would have came in here next week with a lot of confidence if they were to win today after last weeks miracle. This loss probably helps our chances next week!

 

[OrangeTsar]

The premiere football conference in America should be able to get premiere officials to work the games.

I think a good first step would be for the SEC to publicly post the internal rating scores for each crew each week.

Those men in stripes have a lot of power over the outcome of games. A little transparency and accountability should be in order. The scores of the performance of the players is public in the form of the game score. Why should those judging those young mens adherence to the rules be less public.

 

[golfballs]

The only chance the league has to redeem itself is to give the Vols all the calls tonight. Otherwise the league is clearly rigged

 

[OrangeTsar]

For me, the biggest surprise of the tonight's game would be a holding penalty on Alabama. I think the officials last called holding on Alabama against us back in 1987.

Tn will probably have more penalty yards than total yards tonight lol

 

[OrangeTsar]

Not saying Alabama's offensive line is historically guilty of blatant holding or anything, but i do remember one play in one game against us where the entire defensive line simply mysteriously disappeared during one play and were not seen again until they were discovered three weeks later chained in a storage container behind an abandoned K-Mart down in Pratville.

Not true, they usually get 1 called against them late in the 4th quarter and leading 48-6. Cheating commie ba$[@^&$!!

 

[Other_Guy]

It used to be home cookin was the bad calls... Now they're just so bad no one is safe. I missed the 1st half but dad said SC was getting some early calls.

I’m not able to watch it. Is it really that bad?

Awful!!!! The refs are trash! Of course not all of why usc jr lost, but they contributed greatly to it.
