Saw that on the replay. Wtf was that guy doing?

I think he was saying, “fuck you, we’re about to review this and call it a touchback for some reason, motherfucker”.

I'm still confused by the spot in the 3rd quarter. They spotted the ball at the 8 when it was clearly out at about the 11 or 12. 

Then they reviewed it and still couldn't get it correct. Just unbelievable. 

Did they actually review it? TV said nothing at all about what they were doing that I heard.

The crew that called us for 14 penalties against Oklahoma State and them 0 when they were tackling our defense? There’s no integrity there. 

I think Sark spent 5 minutes trying to convince them to review it but they told him to fuck off.

Didn't they go to the monitor on TV? Maybe they were reviewing something else?

The spot was insane but they also missed a couple delay of game calls in the 2nd half. 

It's one thing to miss on holding or PI calls that might be somewhat subjective but when the time hits 0 it's obvious.

I didn’t notice that. But again, Galindo was talking about Barbie or something completely unrelated to what was happening on the field.

I didn't really pay attention because the spot was so egregious and the stoppage of play made me think it was definitely getting overturned.

Maybe it didn't come through on the Longhorn Network feed but I was listening to Craig Way. At the end of the quagmire the referee clearly said that the spot of the ball was not reviewable. It made zero sense. They had just reviewed the spot of a ball for a similar situation a few plays earlier.

Craig Way said the refs told Sark that the spot of the ball is not challengeable. WTF? Isn’t every TD or first down review a challenge of where the ball was spotted?

They also just watched Barron make a great play after they tackled a defender while the ball was in the air.

Also it's really hard to run temp when the refs seems to be doing all sorts of ticky tacky technical shit to disrupt the flow.

LHN didn't address it at all, like not just the spot but didn't even acknowledge there was a lengthy delay with no time out lol. They just kept talking like they normally would between plays.

But also how awful of a spot it is that a coaching staff on the opposite side of the field wants to challenge a 1 yard gain on 1st down? 

The coaching staff knew it was at least 4 yards off and that was on the opposite fucking sideline.

Was annoyed how often the Wyoming WRs would lock onto the DBs to block on passes to the RB even though he was pasted the LOS. 
 

And once again another game and another 0fer on holds against the opposing team

The LHN didn't even know that Wyoming was starting their backup QB despite it being rumored all over social media for days AND said backup taking all the first team snaps in pregame warmups.  So the LHN not addressing it is just par for the course.

It was a wrinkle!  Lowell was genuinely clueless.

Fucking ridiculous replay is not being called even with a timeout

How did they decide that play wasn’t reviewable?? They review spots on 3rd and 4th down all the fucking time.

It sounds like they were not saying it is not reviewable they were saying it is not challengable, which what that tells you is they can review it but the guys who call for reviews didn't call for it.  So the Big 12 guys in the box or wherever they are saw that and were like, "nah you guys are good" but saw the 3rd down Wyoming catch or the Ewers TD and were like, "WAIT A MINUTE HOLD EVERYTHING"

Hmmm...good point

Anyone have screenshots of where the LOS was before the play and the LOS of the play where the QB ran out of bounds 3 yards behind the LOS?

No, but I rewound the game to double-check what I saw. Could not believe LHN didn’t say a word.

that's because they are too busy trying to think up catch phrases and hear themselves talk about things unrelated to the game.

Well it was fozzy’s first call as an analyst. I assume it was an audition of sorts and he doesn’t want to give espn a reason not to bring him into the larger fold.  Maybe Lowell too but after all of the talent that they’ve seasoned on lhn and brought over, for him to still be here likely speaks about his chances. 

So you guys are saying that play should have been a TFL?  I'm so glad there will never be another game on that fucking network!

To be fair, Lowell did make a comment about the bad spot as soon as it happened.

The problem on the play where they blew the spot so badly was that the ref on the sideline where the QB ran out of bounds, who should have been responsible for the spot, got knocked on his ass.  None of the rest of the crew held the spot when that happened so they just kinda picked a spot. 

They absolutely should have reviewed it themselves without being asked and ignoring Sark's pleas to review the spot was absolutely bullshit and pure incompetence.

To be fair, Lowell is a douchenozzle.

This will be another interesting season to compare penalty stats in vs out of conference.

The idea that Alabama had more holding penalties against our dline than Wyoming is... something.

And keep in mind that the common refrain in the sec is that Bama gets protected by their refs.

Fuck the big 12.

God damn, this. They will stop the game and have a giant conference to discuss god knows what. Meanwhile the defense we are tempoing to death that is sucking wind gets a chance to regroup.

This was honestly the most annoying part of the night.

Offense struggling to find rhythm?  Wonder if the stoppage of play every time we started to establish any, usually for some bullshit discussion that had no impact on the game, might have something to do with that.

I hope CDC is at least trying to take this stuff to the big 12.  Not that I expect mr "tech better take care of business" to do anything.

Even the false starts seem to require a conference with this crew. 

This conference and the five to ten minute discussions about everything from a delay to pass interference has completely made the new clock rules irrelevant in speeding up the game.

Ironically both the head Ref who screwed us in the 2015 Okie State game and the Ref who thought he was Mr Universe wearing a smaller shirt to show off his muscles and botched the Safety call against Bama last year are both in the NFL now.    Which explains why officiating in the NFL is as inconsistent as the Rig 12.

This also means if the trend stays on course, the White hat from last nights game will be seen in the NFL soon.  Rig 12 Refs that screw over Texas with an agenda and incompetence seems to be a good resume bullet point

It would be nice if they didn’t miss 5-6 offensive plays due to running the commercial about robotics for the 13th time…

That crew was embarrassing. Missing the spot on a play by 3 yards is a fireable offense. 

Also, from where I sat last night, it sure looked like we got hosed on a DPI on them that wasn't called in the first half, then on a DPI that was called on us after we stopped them on 3rd down, then they ended up getting a FG.  I don't think I can sit through those first 3 quarters again on the DVR to see if that's right, though.

Hopefully Galindo will be gone next year. Him and Lobe suck worse than Beth Mowens. Sometimes I want to punch Lobe in the face during the VB matches.

I saw a ref do that in the CSU-CU game too.

Yeah, that was bullshit.  They reviewed a spot during the game to see if Gunnar scored, and also to see if Wyoming WR made the 1st down around the 9yd line.

Ridiculous mistake and explanation by Rig12 Refs 😬

Yes. Both happened and were egregious.
