    Georgia will be out for blood after last year in Austin. But yes, please enjoy this mediocre win over a massively overrated Vandy squad.

    Also hats off to Diego Pavia. I thought he was the biggest douchebag in college football coming into the game, but after watching that game, I now think he’s the biggest douchebag in sports. Congrats,

I suppose the end-zone DPI wasn't called because the official whose first-line call it was called it a TD.  But others should have tossed the flag.

He must’ve him numerous times down the field. Refs should’ve been clued in by that time. Just egregious non-call. Incompetence or intentional. Both are reasons not to let the refs off the hook. Bad reffing need to be consequential

This hits close to home while I was in Southern California. Was hitting a hot older woman that was 8 years my age from Highland, CA. Meh casino in my opinion 

This was my dad's (RIP pops) go to in retirement. 

I went with him a couple of times. While it had great memories for me, I can't see myself going back.

And a serial killer, but not sure that should be included in a list of occupations for this place. Rock throwers and emergency reef fund managers aside.

I don’t know, they say if you enjoy your work, you’ll never work a day in your life. Those dudes seemed to enjoy their work. That tow truck driver enjoyed fucking unsuspecting young men and throwing rocks into windshields and killing people.

Well, that squares. You're about as insufferable and miserable to be around as anyone I can remember. You'll be a great lawyer. 

Sounds like she took you to the cleaners.

That's really more of a side hustle.

Don't worry, I'm not a lawyer but I'm much smarter and more effective than 9/10 of them.

At first, I honestly thought you meant "hitting a hot older woman" was your dad's go to.

Hah! If he hadn't been married, his dago, once a player self would have been all over it. So... yeah it sure would have been.

I had to read it about 3.

And since I'm contemplating retirement in the next 5 to 7 years, I'm going with it as I read it the first two times, because hitting hot older women at a casino sounds like a better version of hitting the slot machines, if you know what I mean.

May be an image of football and text that says '4 Football FootbalTexa Texas @NTfootballUT Texas fans, be prepared for the officiating in next game.'

I'm actually not that worried about the officiating in the Georgia game, at least from the standpoint that I don't think Georgia is going to get some inherent favoritism from SEC officials.  I say that for two reaons:

1) The SEC doesn't have an interest in Georgia beating Texas.  The SEC wants more teams in the CFP, full stop.  If Georgia wins, they're probably still in the CFP with only two losses.  Texas, on the other hand, is probably out (not definitely, but probably).  So if anything, the Conference should favor Texas winning that game.

2) I'm very skeptical of the conspiracy theories about conferences wanting certain teams to win.  It would be just too big a conspiracy to keep a lid on.   It's one thing for two or three referees on a crew to agree to something among themselves; it's quite another to have a crew agree with the league office about something.  I just don't think it's realistic scenario.

What is a realistic scenario--and one that could affect any game--is gambling.  It's just really hard to watch the fourth quarter of that Vanderbilt game and conclude that one or more of that crew didn't have an interest in Vanderbilt +3.5.  I think that's exceedingly rare.  But as we saw--it does happen.  But next time, it could just as easily happen in favor of Texas.  It's completely unpredictable.

I think both can be true.  The Vanderbilt finish was 100% gambling related.  But then again, look at all the BS the fat chode Kirby is allowed to get away with: being on the field in the literal ref's huddle on every damn play, spitting in the refs' ears all game long, the entire Auburn game including the timeout/clap, on and on...

The officiating in the Vanderbilt game felt like gambling

The officiating in the Auburn and Florida games felt like protecting a CFP team

Fuck that, Kirby Smart is the most insufferable bullshit artist douchebag of a coach.

You should be worried, but it's not about the SEC mandating that certain teams get protection or Vegas sticking its dick in the mash potatoes. I'm sure some of that is happening (especially Vegas and the Vandy game), but you are right that those shouldn't really be factors against UGA. 

The reason you should be worried is because the refs love Kirby. It's because he worked the refs every chance he got. He's chummy with them before and after games, but he's also in their ear the entire time the game is happening. They know if he doesn't like a call that they're never going to hear the end of it. And they allow him to get up their ass because he's so friendly to them outside the games. It's not some big conspiracy or anything, just personal preferences working their way into calls. Throw that on top of the fact that most of the refs don't have any love for Texas and you've got some meaningful bias to overcome. 

You remember how much favorable treatment Gundy got? Kirby is the SEC's version of Gundy. That's what should be concerning.

Holy fucking shit, that thumbnail looks like Kirby is doing the Tango with the official a la Arnold and Jamie Lee in True Lies!
