Kinnie Has Not Scored A Touchdown - Yet

[sd'sker]

Yup the referees were awful that day and it showed. They had bad mechanics (signals) and the line judge on Washington's side seemed like he wasn't ready for this big game for the Pac 10. He spotted the ball wrong several times and hesitated on several others. He even signaled for a TD and then quickly put his hands down like nothing happened which I believe was T-Marts 2nd touchdown of the game.

i forgot about that, that was great. our entire offensive line and every one of our players was a good two yards into the endzone, and they still had to find the ball before calling a TD. oh man, too much.

I don't think it was strange at all. They were consistently wrong in favor of Washington. It got so bad that in the third or fourth quarter (after Bo's challenge, if I recall correctly) there was a play where Burkhead ran the ball close to the marker, and you clearly see him get up, look at the head line judge (the guy on the Washington sideline), then turn around and jog toward the middle of the field to toss the ball to the lineman, even though the head line judge was standing almost right next to him. The players knew they were getting robbed by that guy. Bo challenged that spot just to let them know he was onto them.

Well, I said it was strange because I thought I was losing it or maybe my vision was going bad. As I said, there were three times that I counted where the spot of the ball was wrong. I specifically remember a couple times where the line judge's foot was in the right spot, but then they would mark it a yard in front or back of his foot in favor of Washington. I mean, it was blatant.

I was "direct" in my response because I was remembering how agitated I was at the officiating. That wasn't directed at you. Sorry for not being clear.

I remember that too. The only part of T-Mart's body that wasn't in the endzone were his feet, and it took them quite some time to figure it out. :facepalm:

The line judge on the Washington side seemed to have his own agenda. He's the one who tried to mark Mcneil"s TD out on the six yard line, gave Washington an extra half yard spot that Bo challenged and consistently marked us short of the goal line. As for Kinnie, if he dives he's in. The Washington player was running him down and I was yelling for him to dive, could of gone either way.

Didn't need to dive. He was in.

Kinnie is our best WR no doubt. Niles has more God-given ability, but the kid can not get out of his own way.

This made me crack up cause you knew the officials were really looking for an excuse for U Dub. This ref did a triple take on the TD call actually. Raised his arms twice before agreeing with the Umpire who was unpiling bodies four yards deep in the endzone.

This was also the guy who blew the first fumble in front of the Husky sideline. He first called it Nebraska ball and then changed his mind. Total a$$ hat :facepalm:

Maybe deep down he is a Husker fan and was doing us a favor not that we needed it and then his crew members noticed this and yelled at him, "Hey we're a Pac 10 officiating crew and you should be pulling for Washington! Start calling bad calls on Nebraska!"

about that, when it is cross-conference games, isn't it the away teams refs or neutral refs?
