I would think keeping kids fire up after a game like that is a challenge.  Especially after they get to watch and discuss the game together.   

 

You get this game followed by anything even approaching 2015, then Sark just has to come to the PC and admit "they are just playing out the season now.  It's obvious what is going on.   Want to know why we are leaving?  Look at your refs for starters, big 12.  Reap what you sow." 

Then I would hope he would push for that nationwide pool of refs mentioned above.  Considering the money this sport generates, flying in refs from across the country is piddling in an effort to keep the game as fair as possible.

And no way with the advent of Zoom you couldn't have anonymous review committees of random games.  Use panels of officials and fans, ex-coaches.  Post grades for each ref and then as a group.  Refs would never know what games would be chosen each week, like random drug tests, so they call all games cleaner.

  • Media is just hung up on the 14-0 difference in penalties stat. The first flag of the game was a holding call on the OSU RT. The dumbass UT coaches declined the penalty, basically giving OSU 3 pts bec

Do refs screw OSU in Bedlam to the same extent?

They don't have to.

I don't believe that the Big 12 has instructed the refs to rule against Texas in any manner.  It's definitely possible that they have instructed refs to protect OU since they have been the conference's best playoff shot the last few years.

The problem for Texas is pretty simple, the talent pool that the refs are drawn from.  Most fans of college football in the Big 12 footprint either love or hate Texas.  Many of the fans who hate Texas blame Texas for a lot of their school's problems.  They find it funny when Texas gets fucked over, often chalking it up to karma.

So when the Big 12 picks refs they can't send Texas fans to ref Texas games, therefore, we get the refs who hate Texas.  At best we get a ref who is indifferent but there's bound to be at least one Texas hater on the crew, likely more.

This is completely true, and most of the dumbfuck B12 refs look like aggy. 
 

Imagine giving up that cushy insurance sales job to go be a referee for 1/3 of the year instead.   Their median salary is 57k so I guess the raise in pay, 8 months a year to work part time cleaning restrooms at bucees and getting to fuck over TU is a sweet, sweet gig.  

You thought last week was bad?

Prepare your anuses

REVIEW 12 what a conference

2 holdings against Texas in the first 6 mins

That's a hold by Imade? He is strong and simply put a hand in the defenders chest. I missed the hold..

ref fuckery continues...  and no DPI for tackling receiver before the ball gets there.  And that technical hold by Imade was legal by OU all last week and more..

Tackle in bounds on 3rd down

Flag on us

that was legit horsecollar.  but the standards for holding continue to be allowed for our opponents and they can tackle the receiver before the ball gets there.  

sigh

Pass interference no call

If you don't drag him down by it I don't think it should be called. You know if they tackle Casey exactly like that on a 3rd down they wouldn't be flagged. 

In the SEC you can hit and tackle hard and nobody bats an eye. It's got to be an obvious dirty hit or tackle to warrant a penalty, like it's meant to be. Can't wait until we are in a real football conference.

Oh no doubt we have been horsecollared several times this season... no flag.

Takes us getting tackled right in front of the QB to draw a hold.

Other way it's just a hand on the jersey for half a second

so the script is to call a few early on osu....

Casey isn't gripping the ball...didn't he have a thumb issue against OU, after he got hit

edit: wrong topic

Personal foul, touching the quarterback after he started his throwing motion.

I’ll never hate Dr Pepper, but fuck big 12 refs

Nice of them to finally call PI, and ignore offensive holding too.

Wait he drove him into the ground i thought that was a penalty you cunts?

okay - that's the same fucking thing - driving the qb to the ground - no flag

fuckery ingame tracker: +3.5

How the fuck???!!! Seriously, we just got called for that shit by the same ref watching thompson get drove into the ground...

  • Author

Dude puts his helmet In Casey’s chest and drives him into the ground and no call…. Fuck that bull shit

Get the fuck out of this shit conference asap. That’s unbelievably obvious

Fuck these refs. 100% rigged. That was as clear of a roughing call and targeting as you can get and no call.
