They got one. It was offset by one on Boyd. 

Right so they have zero officially. 

Targeting by ksu not called a couple of times.

Excellent use of passive-aggression to make the point.

Was this Alan Eck's old crew?  Lulz if so.

yep. loved that.  he should say the same thing about the holding on our DL.  My one hope is that Del Conte is back channeling the BS we keep seeing on a yearly basis.  It is criminal.

was there a replay for targeting at all? 

Those refs sucked shit through a straw.

And they liked it. They were routinely not paying attention to all the fucking holding

Yep, the fact they were called for one penalty with zero enforced is flat out fucking ridiculous. Their entire delayed QB run game is based on the OL holding the DL in position to let the QB pick a gap.

the thing that bugs me the most is that it always appears they are looking to throw flags on us, not that the calls on us are bad, and they are actively looking the other way on obvious calls on the opponent.

Those DPIs were sketchy af.

What the hell happened on that neutral zone infraction/false start play where the refs threw no flag at all? It was so clearly one or the other, probably a false start, but nothing was called. The KSU QB even thought he had a free play. 

That's what one would call single focus, they probably had no idea how one sided they were til late in the game, if at all.

Many of the calls on us were legit, but the refs definitely looked the other way while K State did their thing. Never seen a 10-0 penalty discrepancy before.

The 1st DPI was complete BS, their WR tripped by himself. They also had OPI in the EZ on the last play before half, which is why their TE was so wide open. The WR was clearly blocking Davis.

 

What's even more amazing is they didn't even attempt to review the fumble on the kick off.

I should have been more clear.  I'm talking more in general over the past few years. as for today, yes KSU ran a pick play, 1st DPI was horseshit.

Surprised this isn't getting more talk. 

 

Zero penalties. That' shit is unheard of. We shot ourselves in the foot plenty this game but for fucks sake how obvious can this shit get before something is done?

Something need to be done about this horribly under thrown ball DPI call that Texas keeps falling victim to.

Edited by Pam Cummings

Can anyone put together a list of number of penalties/yards for us vs our competition over the past 5 years? 

 

Its gotta be pretty fucking one sided

well.... if Boyd would 

A.  Stop getting burned worse than toast

B. stop running into a stopped WR waiting on the underthrown ducks thrown by our opponent

C. Turn the fuck around so that even if you do run into the WR, the PI being called is so much harder

 

we might not have the fucking PI's called against us

I recall a couple of potential false start penalties they could have called against them.

It's not about the calls against us today. Most were warranted. A few weren't. That shit is normal. 

 

What's abnormal, I mean absurdly abnormal, is the opponent getting zero penalties the whole game. 

The only call against us that I had any issue with was the first DPI in which the WR tripped.  Their comback was completely dependent on them holding us on every play so that their QB didn't die.

Hager’s Shoulder pads must be permanently fused in an “up” position from all the holds he was subject to. 

There was one play where he was held by the shoulder pads, did a spin move to get out of the hold, and the OL literally bear hugged him. No flag. 

Edited by hornian

They missed some obvious holding/false start calls on K-State's OL. All you want is consistency and they weren't consistent.

Most of the penalties were warranted against Texas outside of the bullshit PI call but the lack of calls against K-State was egregious. Going into halftime I'm almost positive Hager was talking to some of the refs about being held. On the play where Wheeler was called for defensive holding Hager was livid that there was't a holding call against K-State's OL.

They were ticky tack on some of the stuff they called Texas for too. That hold by wheeler, the PI on DD, offsides.

I Literally have never witnessed a game where the other team got ZERO PENALTIES. When was the last time that happened? It has to be years ago.

huh??

offsides is offsides, doesnt fucking matter if he's got a toe offsides, or his whole body.  That rule is pretty fucking clear. 

The Wheeler hold wasnt ticky tack either- he dragged down the running back who was coming out of the backfield, and going to be wide open.  The RB in that situation is a live receiver, and being dragged down is the definition of defensive holding.

I agree the DPI when the Kstate player tripped was bullshit. 

 

I also agree with the premise that something is amiss when Kstate was literally using the entire length of their arms to grab our players by the throat to keep them from getting to the QB and not one of the 3 times I saw that was called. 

Was the rb past the line? I thought you could pretty do whatever to them behind the line. They called offsides but it probably should have been encroachment if they were gonna flag the defense.

This is when I like the assholness of Herman tbh. Mack & Strong would never say this. I’m fed up with getting the sh*t end from the refs all the time. The safety vs USC was the only time I remember recently something egregiously going our way

look how many penalties that kstate got against everyone but us; they went from one of the most penalized to nothing? it's absolute bullshit

Iowa State and Oklahoma State both remember "fumbles" that weren't, and that's just in recent memory.

I grant you that Big XII refs seem to have a hard on for screwing Texas (that's hardly disputable, at this point), but just in general, bad calls have a way of eventually evening out, because they do happen to everyone and for everyone if you get a large enough sample size.

I don’t know what was worse, the refs or the announcing. There was one play where KSU defensive player tackled one of our guys by the neck, and Tillman was praising it as a great form tackle. I also love how they got defensive about not knowing it was fourth down. 

I also hope out coaching staff sends clips of all the videos of the targeting plays that were not called to the league office. 

Yup isolated bad calls happen both ways. Can’t really complain about the ones on Texas.

the concern, like a couple of people above have pointed out is that Kstate had none.

Yep. Like the play where a ksu db launched at ehlinger’s chest—-and no call.

It was bullshit! K St has been getting alot of penalties all season and now all of audden they are so disciplined to the tune of 0 penalties?? Fuck everyone there that wasnt in burnt orange!!

One of those we got called for offsides too.  Offensive lineman clearly moved. 

Kansas St penalties this season

South Dakota: 13 - 129

Miss St: 2 - 15

UTSA: 4 - 41

WVU: 8 - 69

Texas: 0 - 0

All of a sudden they turned into a disciplined team vs us even though our defense is better than all those teams except maybe Miss St. Interesting
