Re: Offcial SEC Football Thread 2010
I should say one more thing about the game at Ben Hill Griffin the other night. An out of towner would expect
a little skull-duggery afoot in the officiating, but I was surprised that LSU got the calls they deserved, good
and bad, and the refs didn't seem to be stealing the game this year. A lot of 2009 games seemed tainted by
one huge bad call or another, and we remember the scandals that turned out not to be too scandalous,
concerning the officiating in the SEC. When a call is made, I am man enough to see it as objectively as
possible, benefit to me or not. It was pretty clean EXCEPT for a non-call at 10:50 of the 4th quarter on
a pass caught out of bounds, the LSU guy came up on a FL receiver heading out of bounds, and right there on the big,
wide, white strip, shoves him in the back with his hands, and sends the guy flying into a guy and a table full
of gatorade in cups. I could not believe that LSU was not flagged on it. I guess cause it was not a tackle,
he just shoved him, but with his momentum, it caused a lot of crap to get knocked over. I do not like dirty play.
