the hit out of bounds early in the game set the standard for piss poor officiating........been poor all year.

Morgan was almost on the other side of the wide, white stripe on the sideline when he got hit. That was ridiculous.

I mean, I guess we can accept it give we won the last meeting on a somewhat controversial call. This year despite most of the poor officiating going against us we still pulled it out. Also, MSU is still dirty AF!

Now that many high schools have finished their seasons, there are a lot of possible replacement crews available.

Is Nebraska's biggest rivalry with the officials? 

 

[NebraskaShellback]

I do say that some of the refs crews need to go back to basic training or wear their freaking glasses. Plus, it seem they can not call the right player's number committing the penalty.

I'm starting to think all of these ticky tacky defensive PI and holding calls are to boost B1G offensive stats.

After the way I’ve seen games officiated, I was surprised Reed wasn’t hit with a targeting on the sack/fumble for hitting the QB high

That was terrible. That may have even been a penalty in the 70’s

But not in the 80s as the "reciever" was still in bounds. I'll always be bitter.

Calls that we think are s#!tty are not so much on the refs but on the "rules" that they are told to enforce...

 

With that said I have chatted with refs during games that have told me "My goal for tonight is to not throw a flag" so...

Then why do they always throw them when our opponent has an incomplete pass on 3rd and long near the end of the game?

Whether or not the refs are calling or not calling penalties, i think the bottom line is just that they are soooo inconsistent on what is called vs not called.  I've seen us get away with a couple of things that weren't called that were far more egregious than things we have been called for.  The non-calls on the obvious is what gets me the most.  Twisting guys heads off, late hits out of bounds, etc, late hits on our QB or hit in the head while he's sliding not called, but we touch their Precious and boom, it's 15.

I just saw the Reed sack again today and it reminded me that we got damn lucky that the refs didn't flag that for a targeting.  Same on the Gifford sack earlier in the game.

Disagree.  His head was up, looking at the play, the helmet to helmet contact was just incidental and that is legal.
