Dang I forgot about a lot of these plays you guys are mentioning. I’m enjoying reading them even though it hurts. But yeah the Tillman no call was awful too

I don't think that was the worst call in the OM game or the one most critical to the loss. The officiating was poor all game long and most of the bad/border line calls went against the Vols.

Game was fixed. No one can convince me differently. Sad thing is there have been worse games by sec officials; every team not named Bama knows our officials are terrible.

Guys please stop with the scoop score stuff. We wrapped Corral up took him backwards 2 or 3 yards and spun him around and the ball comes out. That will NEVER stand as a fumble. Besides, make one stop on defense and it’s a different game.

That’s a scoop and score 10/10 times I’ve seen it. If it’s JG instead of Corral, it’s no doubt. The refs looked lost, Corral looked lost. That doesn’t mean you wipe 6 off the board.

U have to think something could be done in those critical hands up in the air WTF do I do moment's.They were completely lost on the strip sack fumble and screwed us period!I believe coaches should be allowed one review a game similar to the red flag in NFL but to many times these games come down to 1 or 2 plays that can derail a season.You just can't make me believe that faking injuries and a review are the uncrackable codes of football

Well then you need to go watch the replay again! I’m a football official, and that play would be blown dead 10/10 times. I get the orange tinted glasses, I really do. But really, he is wrapped up, driven back about 3 yards, and then the ball is stripped out. You’ve got to be kidding me to think that’s a score.

But Ray Charles can see that QB is wrapped up and not trying to gain yardage before the ball comes out.

Make it 10/11 then, because no ref blew that call dead last year.

Actually, the crew on the field did. They let it go because a touchdown can be reviewed everytime. It’s easy to get together and say no he was down here. Which is what they did.

I don’t want to question your integrity, but it is very unbelievable that the Big 12 has as clueless an official as the SEC. That means you’re an SEC official and rightfully ashamed of the fact or you’re just outright being dishonest.

You’re pretty funny I give you that. But please tell me about your officiating experience.

One final pre season thought, then it’s go time.. it’s so close now I can smell it!!

Apart from the fake injuries and the horrible calls in the Ole Miss game, the last play was not a first down. They made the right call which led to bedlam, but it was the right call. That and Corral running for about 200 on us, I can swallow that one and move on.

The Purdue game, our guy had a touchdown, and we would have won. They made the wrong call. The fact that the play didn’t stop and players were still going 100 on both sides, proves the whistle hadn’t blown yet and forward progress hadnt stopped. His knee wasn’t down before he reached the ball to the goal line. That one is still hard to get over for me.

But we persevere and press on!

Looking forward to a very very exciting season with lots of big orange wooooooos 🍊 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊

The truly egregious call for the ol' Miss games was the QB strip for the TD that was called back because even though the whistle hadn't blown they ruled he was "in the grasp". I think the real deal was the Mississippi center snapped the ball early and it took both the QB and the officials off guard but that was a live ball and should have been a TD.

It’s not that clear cut not 10-10 probably 75% of the time .

It is a fantasy for me to have a season with unbiased officiating..... unfortunately most fantasies are just that.... a Fantasy

Pretty much anytime a quarterback is wrapped up and then carried backwards, that play will be dead. Also applies to other ball carriers if it’s obvious forward momentum has stopped.

They let it go making it a touchdown which is reviewable.

Okay, but.... none of the refs actually signaled a touchdown either. I pulled up the game on YouTube to see what happened after that 12-second clip you linked above. Interestingly, they did not blow it dead yet they did not signal a touchdown. According to the SEC league office, the referees didn't make the decision until after the play. The referees huddled after the play to make the "forward progress was stopped" determination. (Sources: article on Nashville's AtoZsports website, USA TODAY's KnoxNews website, and Sports Illustrated).

I understand what you are saying. I'm not even disputing whether this was the right or wrong call here with my comments in this thread. I just don't think it's cut-n-dried "this gets blown dead 10/10 times" is all.

Anyways, thanks for showing up and giving your well-informed insight on this topic. I'm just a fan who's tryna understand. Cheers!

I get it if it was flag football or two hand touch but he is being tackled and lost the football. That should be a touchdown every single time. I dont understand some of these new "rules". I dont care if he is going backwards, sideways, or upside down. If your being tackled and lose the ball it should be a fumble. It's football, hold on to the ball until your down or give yourself up and go to the turf. Otherwise that should be a fumble 10/10 times. That's the problem with all these new rules, it leaves too much interpretation in the officials hands. If your not down and you fumble, it should be a fumble no if's and's or but's. Forward progress is garbage and puts officials in a bad position.
