SEC officials are flat out corrupt

They added another official (now 8 on the field), when they needed to recruit quality rather than quantity. The selection process is all about the 'buddy' system and 'who owes who a favor'... Plus, the officiating commissioner is an Alabama graduate who's office is in Birmingham. Let's get someone with no SEC ties, and an office in a neutral city. The official that missed the face mask penalty in the Ole Miss game should be reprimanded. The non-call was inexcusable. Same goes for the official that called 'targeting' in the UT game.

Birmingham is as neutral as you're going to get. With the money the SEC is generating we should be able to get the best college officials in the country.

Games tapes should be sent to an arbitrator type official instead of the SEC office and offending officials should receive team fines for egregious calls.

I'm sorry you're too ignorant to figure that out. The clock keeper hits the button, the timer immediately goes from 15:00 to 14:59. From that moment, the time from 59 to 58=1 sec, 58 to 57=2, 57 to 56=3, 56 to 55=4. Uh oh, when the clock says 55, how many full seconds have gone by. 4, because no seconds really went off from the 00-59.

You have no idea if that is correct or not. In your example you don't know how long the clock sat at 15:00 before moving to 14:59. I would guess a second.

You think there was still time on that clock when the ball was hiked? Or are you just one of those, "I don't dispute what the refs say out of fear of being labeled a quote, unquote crybaby" type guys? That "you have to overcome those calls" mentality is born from those who are OK with being screwed by the system. The system instilled that mentality... We can't fix the system, so lets make them think it's their fault for not being able to win... And then win by even more bc the refs can't make the correct calls. Is the system flawed? Of course. Do i know how to fix it. No. Should I be labeled a "crybaby" bc the other team got away with one? Absolutely not.

The clock was zero before the ball was hiked. That wasn't the last play of the game. So had they called delay and Florida punted, we get the ball.... Maybe we win, maybe we don't. Had they kicked even still, maybe we win, maybe we don't. In any event, I would love to have seen that vs what happened. Yeah, $h!t happens...it goes both ways.... That doesn't mean I should be willing to accept the call just bc the system is flawed.

The more you're willing to accept the fact that the system isn't perfect, is more of a reason for them to keep going without change.

Was the clock at zero before the ball was hiked? Yes or no? It changes everything...for the good or bad. Officiating has to improve. The no call is unacceptable.

Mistakes happen, slick. They blew it. It's the same as a player blowing a play. Same as an interception. Same as crappy gameday coaches doing crappy gameday coach things.

Dumb.

Do you know a profession that demands 100% accuracy? It doesn't exist.

Not even doctors have to keep that standard. Not military. Not even your McDonald's, chief.

Grow up and accept it.

It's actually not the same, slick. An interception would be thrown by a player. Refs aren't on a team(well, they don't wear a team uni anyway). Refs are there to enforce the
rules of the game. We both get the same play clock. It isn't our responsibility to overcome the fact that Florida kicked a game winning fg on a dead ball.

The commentators saw that they kicked the ball on an expired play clock. You can't tell me that they are the only ones who noticed it. And if it's up to the commentators to point out what the refs can't do correctly, I guess let them be able to notify the replay booth in the future. If it's up to Jesse Palmer to call the game, there are clearly problems with the officiating.

Stop defending incompetence. Makes no sense.

I do know that. Every countdown timer does it. Try it on your phone. The timer we have at the Little League where I umpire does it, the basketball timer at Thompson Boling does it. Hence why there's .4 secs left on the game clock. Even better, try a stopwatch. If you hit it and stop it immediately, the clock doesn't automatically go to 1, it stays on 0 for a little bit. Watch kickoffs. The ref circles his arm to start the clock, it immediately goes down a second.

If just 1 fan had rushed the field and confronted the refs, this issue would be national news.

Someone is going to have to be a martyr.

You're a dandy if you do.

All I got to say is that it is my understanding that after the 2000 Tennessee/Florida game with the "phantom" Jabbar Gaffney TD "catch" to win the game, CPF had Hubert Owens (the referee yesterday & a former TE for Vanderbilt) banned from officiating games at Neyland Stadium. CBJ needs to have the ban reinstated immediately.

I do see a pattern of flagrantly bad major calls going against UT that are likely changing outcomes of games. This is just one more example. They are piling up. Georgia game alone was a highlight reel of referee bias.

I hope he has someone on staff documenting all this stuff to send the SEC. It's the only way to keep biased refs accountable.

The ball is on the ground. It's obviously not snapped and the clock is sitting on zero.

That is a five yard penalty that knocks Florida out of FG range - if the refs were doing their job. Huge problem.

Both of your claims are patently and demonstrably false.

First, you cannot see that the ball is on the ground. Second, and more important,you cannot see from a still picture if it has begun to move.

the holder hasn't even raised his right arm off the ground yet to receive the ball. you think he has the the reflexes to raise his arm after the ball is in flight? The fact is we should have scored more in the redzone and it wouldn't have mattered. UF definitely got away with delay of game on the decisive fieldgoal though, rewatch the play on your dvr. It's obvious.

If the ball is moving without being snapped then there should be a false start call. Tennessee should have never been is the position for the no call to matter but they were. We are talking about a one point game. Tennsee got railed by the officials again. Butch and Co should petition this call just to prove a point. Nothing can be overturned but they won't put up with inept officiating.

Look, I don't know. It may have been some fraction of a second late and so we got lucky. But who's to say we don't then punt, you turn it over on downs or a sack-fumble and we score a TD to win 14-9? When it's not the last play, you're rewriting history you necessarily cannot know.

The guy behind me at the game said it live that the play clock had hit 0. It was something that I knew was an issue while in the stands.

The conference just gives a BS explanation to defend it. The NFL officials are always on top of the play clock and are quick to call it. Just so inexcusable.
