At the end of the game when Barnett slings SC QB around like a rag doll, and then Obrien gives him a good hand check to the shoulder pads; was this a good no call? If it had of happend earlier in the game rather than at such a critical moment, do they throw the flag?

Could of threw the flag on either of them. We got a huge break by them not throwing. Thompson whining to the refs all game probably helped us too, they may of been tired of hearing it. Barnett and O'brien got to be smarter than that it could of cost us.

I think I read someone stating the whistle hadn't blown yet, but I'm not sure. It maybe could have been called. Also, it looks like an acting job by Thompson on the push. At least it did to me on slow mo.

I agree they gotta watch it, but it sure was fun to watch!

That should have cost UT the game...They have to play smarter than that.

Barnett was killing Thompson all night. The refs simply let them play. Thank God it was not that Hubert guy! He stinks!!

They played like mad dogs and bleed orange.

The refs missed the call and had they called it correctly, it would have given SC a first down and game over. We were very fortunate and I imagine Cockytalk was going in full meltdown mode after the game on that one.

Refs didn't miss any call. Whistle hadn't blown and the ref nor Barnett had seen the qbs knee down. Additionally, the qb was out of the pocket as a runner and not standing idle.
