JTrain Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Discuss. Did #18 brush Marlowe and they just called the penalty on the wrong guy (Dennison)? Or was it just a horrible call (as the TV announcers seemed to suggest)? I'm not so interested in the second half one against Rex, because that seemed to be clearly a bad call, and also not as monumental in terms of possibly swinging the outcome. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Horrible call. Some pics would be good if anyone's got 'em. Quote Link to comment
Ratt Mhule Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Not as bad of a call as Osborne's late hit on the QB last year at A&M, but still bad nonetheless Quote Link to comment
Rep The 402 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Actually number 18's arm brushed up against Marlowe. Look closely and you will see it. Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 Horrible call. That was my initial thought. Dennison certainly didn't do anything wrong. But potentially they just got the number wrong... after seeing it a few more times, it looked like #18 (I think) may have brushed him or at least impeded his path to the ball, which could be interpreted as kick catch interference by the way it's currently worded.

NUance Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Just wait a few hours. We'll see youtube vids posted by crying Husky fans complaining about getting jobbed. Quote Link to comment
melscott62 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 stupid play by marlow..... he needed to already be under that or needs to get away..... I was really disappointed with how sloppy we looked..... I know its still early but that needs to be cleaned up Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I've always thought they needed to bring back the halo rule. Guys just get too close without it. At least with the halo rule an interference call was obviousl, and a halo infraction-which was questionable a lot of the time- was only a 5 yarder. What we saw today was simply a difference of one set of officials' interpretation opposed to what Washington is probably used to dealing with. Quote Link to comment
308_Husker Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I honestly don't think it was a good call, but it's one of those you have to live with. I'm a little under the influence, so correct me if I'm wrong in thinking if it happened in the first half. It's plenty of time to recover from it if you're the Huskies. If they blame the loss on that call, they're kidding themselves. Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 If I was from UW I would be pissed!! Horrible call. Quote Link to comment
BigWillie Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Actually number 18's arm brushed up against Marlowe. Look closely and you will see it. I've rewatched this on DVR, and there is absolutely no way you can say #18 touched him. I'm not afraid to admit we benefited from calls today. That was one of them. I just don't want to be like aTm and have fans acting like there was nothing wrong with calls in a game. Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Be pissed all you want. When you lose by 14 points, in a game that was not as close as the score, and after that call you go to halftime down only 3 but somehow crap your pants the entire 3rd qtr, those calls are not to blame. A penalty to truly blame? Hows bout a phantom roughing passer call on 3rd and long with 4 minutes to go in a tie game to put the off in game winning field goal range. That is a game changing call. Nebraska was going to win this game by 2-4 touchdowns- P E R I O D Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 My only guess is that they called someone for impeeding his path towards the football, which I can somewhat see. That was a Big Ten crew, if we have to get used to this I will be angry. They don't call holding along the OLine at all. Crick and Meredith got held every single play and at times it was very obvious. Quote Link to comment
krc1995 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 It was a game changer. Maybe as much as 10 points Quote Link to comment
