Watched the ‘69 Arkansas game for the hell of it the other night. It was beautiful. No bringing out the chains. No “WAS HIS KNEE DOWN BEFORE CROSSING THE PLAIN”. No intention roughness. Non of that crap. Just line up and play. Refs were basically invisible as they should be. It was very refreshing. Then I watched the aggy-Florida game Saturday and it was a non stop flag fest. Just awful. 

Well, turnovers aside, you were watching the two best teams in the country. No one will mistake the Aggies and Gators for that.

Well, except for aggy.


Eh, I guess the first part of #3 is more applicable within that scenario.

Dude tried to shove the wrong head up the aggys ass.

Complaints about officiating including SEC

College Football Officiating Was HORRIBLE Saturday - Josh Pate Reaction

 

Update...

College Football officiating was a disaster in week 3 with blown calls and ill-advised flags being thrown left and right. On Josh Pate's College Football Show Ep 555 Josh Pate broke down why College Football officials essentially decided the outcomes of games like LSU vs South Carolina while also making egregious calls in UGA vs Kentucky, Oregon vs Oregon State, and more. After Sunday's show several College Football officials reached out and shared their point of view.

ACC refs protecting Cam Ward's Heisman campaign and Miami's top-10 ranking.

 

Indisputable evidence should be easy and clear to see/understand yet I'm not expecting that once again. 

Indisputable evidence always takes 5+ minutes to see.

Those 5 minutes are used for checking on their account transfer.

As bad as the spots have been, at least we didn’t have 6;748 play reviews and 4+ guys out for targeting for the first half against OU

Fuck the refs on the holding call on Wisner’s run.

These refs suck…and are nowhere near as shitty as Big 12 refs. Yet.

Hoping this is the C team and won't be the norm. I thought the refs in our Bama game last year were good.

These refs are light centuries better than the dog crap that the BigXii trotted out there.

Refs did not have a good day. But it didn’t seem like they were trying to fuck one team over. They were not big 12 refs. Fuck that pussy ass conference.

Arch did run for 3 TDs on one drive tho.

All I know is we better see a written apology for not giving Arch that diving TD. Seemed like indisputable video showing he got in.

I got the feeling they missed that the ball crossed the goal line before his leg touched or the elbow hit the pylon. When his elbow touched the pylon, the ball was already above the goal line. The announcers seemed to be focused only on  the elbow, too.

It was rough what they were calling as holding against us today and what they didn’t call against msu, as mock calls out above. 
 

Just some kind of divine shenanigans today fucking with our offense in several ways.

Agreed, If only they had a group paid to review that.

Death, taxes and Surly bitching about refs.

WRONG. Today was a shit show.

Who cares? Scored a few plays later and took more time off the clock.

2 plays later.... then again 3 plays later

Integrity cares. Rules care. What's the point if they get it wrong in super slow motion.

The argument that his elbow hit the pylon was crazy. Like the ball didn’t break the plane.

was at the game.  seems like the only holding on Texas will continue in SEC.  It seemed like this crew was again trying to "look" for something on us every time we got a big play.

Agree. They weren’t great, but it wasn’t just pure incompetence and fuckery like in the big 12. And they really do call holding.

The spot on that play was the worst thing about them overturning it. At worst the ball should’ve been on the 1 inch line, not the 1.5 yard line.

We'd all care a lot if Arch somehow gets concussed on either QB dive play.

Unlikely, but it can happen.

Pfft. When has Texas ever lost a really good QB to injury on an unnecessary run call?

This, and then I was more amazed his first sneak attempt didn't even get reviewed. The end zone shot showed he clearly crossed.

All's well that ends well I suppose, except for the condition of my vocal cords from yelling at the refs on that series.

The hold on the TD pissed me off the most. Broughton was so clearly grabbed and it was the only way MSU scored.

Especially after the ticky tack stuff that had been called the other way. Be strict, or let them do whatever, but be consistent.

the fuckery yesterday was obvious on the drive for the 4th TD.  2 BS holding calls(1 on a TD) to try to keep MSU in it.  We overcame and scored the TD and the game was over.  flags went back in the pockets, not a single penalty the rest of the game.

The Helm call on the Bond screen before the FG debacle was also complete bullshit.  that "hold" is exactly what every WR/TE blocking is supposed to do. the announcer said hands outside the framework.  If that were the actual limit, every screen has a hold.

45 yards of MSU's 65yds in penalties were obvious facemasks and the wide open hold on the MSU TD was laughable not being called.

I liked when the refs picked up the flag on the facemask call on Simmons. They showed the replay, and there were two MSU players holding him. But they didn't grab his facemask.

Late in the game after they came all the way back and went ahead, UGA dbs were straight up assaulting our WRs.   One wrapped up our WR from behind, pinning both arms, a full second goes by, the ball arrives WELL within the catch radius of our guy, and . . . Nothing.  WORST no call defensive PI I’ve ever seen.  If you see this crew (the head ref has a Cajun name, Gaudreaux or Bleauhole or something, looks like Gomer Pyle, eyebrows like caterpillars), prepare thine anus for reffuckery.  Fortunately the refs eyes couldn’t follow Ryan Williams he was so smooth.
