Kansas has made a ton of money on their basketball tier 3 rights, and the conference or other member universities never publicly decried that or demanded that they stop. 

Yes.  For those that don't know: Kansas rakes in more media revenue than any SEC or B1G team. #3 in the nation.

  • 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

aggy stirred everybody up about LHN and T3 rights and then hit the door.   Nobody did same with Kansas basketball because as bad as the rest of them are, they are not aggy. Also, conference basketball money isn’t in the same universe as football money. 
 

The same year Texas launched the LHN, Kansas State sold it's T3 football rights to an online streaming service (which, admitted, was incredibly forward thinking albeit maybe 5 years too early).

It has nothing to do with the sport played or any of that. It's all about money. Simply put, nobody else's T3 rights were worth anywhere near Texas' T3 rights, regardless of sport.

Let's take a peak at what our head ref is seeing under the hood, shall we?

 

 

Hands to the face, facemask, and dpi not called

There’s been a couple late (but reasonable) tackles. I’d not care if they didn’t call that bs on hill last week

Can’t even get a simple concept like no back-to-back timeouts right. 

A rare first down... With the left guard holding back the sack in front of the ref!

Massive hold on first play of the drive.

That was ridiculous 

Of course it's hands to the face at the 1, not the hold in the zone. Whatever. They can't get the soakers back into it.

That was a completely calculated call.  No hold, no safety!

Houston had 6 penalties today. One vs Texas. 7 vs. WV. Funny how that pattern keeps happening with opponents of a single school.

I really appreciated that big 12 refs confirmed they know how to call DPI...

the problem is, they continue to only call it on us and never against our opponent.   

 

Its comical that the only non-big 12 reg crew we faced this year has called just as many DPI calls in that 1 game as we have gotten in the other 7 games combined.

Three players being held to be precise.

Anyone breakdown how BYU’s penalties against us compared with their season average?

 

Quick glance they avg around 5/game and were flagged for 3 against us. Still going with the trend of below avg for penalties

Get ready.

I wish one of these Texas twitter accounts that puts up compilations of plays would put together a compilation of the worst non holding calls in conference games this year.  I'm guessing at least 20 to choose from.  All you can do is laugh at this point at how bad it is.

My seats are in the upper deck, so I usually can't see the fuckery involving holding.  The pics above make it look like yesterday's game was even worse than usual.  Rig 12 refs are encouraged by their WWE Commissioner & crooked deputy commissioner.   That conference needs to be excomunicated from any power grouping until they fix that and games have some sort of integrity.

It's a shame there is no accountability for these frauds.

The fuckery is a feature not a bug.

And without Texas, it’s only going to be worse.

WWE is actually a pretty apt comparison.

Theres going to be some pretty ‘fun’ outcomes for years to come when teams with the best chance of making the playoffs are playing in close games.

Prepare your anus OSU and KSU when you go against a favored Utah or Arizona or the Colorado Deons.

Fuck this conference and their POS cheaters.

UofH was MUCH worse in the holding department for sure, but it was pretty egregious once again yesterday.  And the one hands to the face call easily should have been holding, but the fact the QB was in the endzone and would have cost BYU a safety, the refs had to figure out something.  

 

I was especially elated when BYU's coach attempted two time-outs (or times-out) in a row, and Sark was seen using every four letter word on TV.

Gotta come clean on one thing: I stole the WWE from Bobby Burton.  Just feel like it is such a good analogy, I gonna go with it.

It may not have been perfect, but Derek Anderson's crew is about the best we're going to get in the B12.They're far better than Mar or Alvarez. I'll take Anderson over anything else in a NY second.

I’ll take Anderson and Vandervelde over Mar any day.

I wish some reporter would do a story about it and give the issue some exposure.

And I wish some reporter would interview a conference rep and confront them with the evidence and ask questions.

Absolutely. We're never going to get the holding calls, but that crew yesterday was otherwise competent and, more than that, not hostile.

Cook and Wells are on it today

It really doesn’t matter. The conference isn’t going to suddenly change how it officiates the last month of the season.

Though it will be interesting to watch next year to see who becomes the whipping boy(s) of the conference officials.

That’s akin to picking which flavor of shit tastes better. 

Edited by thunderlounge

Yeah 30 missed calls against us and 1 went for us really solid by the refs thanks big12!
Imagine a game where the officials just call what they see and aren't even part of the discussion because the game is about the play on the field instead of the refs. It's pretty fun. 
Just compare the Bama game with SEC refs this year vs the Bama game with big12 refs last year. 
It was quite refreshing to see SEC refs calling only the obvious stuff while otherwise just letting the game play out naturally. I have no idea if all the SEC crews are that good, but it was quite a contrast to the imbeciles in the Rig12 who usually add at least a half hour to every game.

I’d take Stevie Wonder over any of those crews.

Heard Angel Hernandez and crew will be officiating Saturday's game 😏

I haven’t paid attention to them yet this year but let’s not forget the game day trope by the announcing crew that Kansas state of old was the least penalized team in the league…..as you see them committing penalties right in front of you

There were at least 3 potential calls on that play and certainly not defending those POS refs, but if it's a safety or not is based on where the foul occurred (beginning of the hold for example) not where the QB is.

Texas Tech and Oklahoma State of course.  Habits are hard to break.

Does anyone have a high-res puc or video of the Taafe interception around 9:30 of the 4th Q? I think that was the play where it looked like Sorrell was carrying a choke-holding Mormon like a backpack to the QB.
