[QUOTE="EastTNHunter, post: 3807945, member: 8364"] That is how "The" Ohio State University has done it for years. Notre Dame has been the recipient of several calls over the years, as well, though... poke, poke :whistle: In the USCe game, there was a phantom holding penalty that brought back a long touchdown run by Todd Gurley that the SEC admits was wrong, a crazy intentional grounding call that was called by the letter of the law, but in a way that it is never called otherwise, but there was no recourse later... UGA is 7-0 baby!!! Nothing in our way but the playoff!! Seriously, UGA never should have lost the USCe game; there was some poor coaching and execution, and yes, some poor officiating, but UGA should have done more to win. I'm not claiming a "W." I agree that the officiating in all conferences keeps getting worse and worse. It is really hard to watch a game sometimes, knowing that there will be some real boneheaded calls by officials that will not be fixed. Watching the LSU game last night, the refs "inadvertently" blew a play dead, negating a big gain by LSU. A lot of these pass interference calls lately really make me scratch my head. And these unsportsmanlike conduct calls are VERY subjective, with certain players getting away with dances and hand signals (AJ Johnson), but others getting flagged for the pickiest little things. And, yes, some teams do seem to be "marked" by the refs one way or the other. [/QUOTE]
