Poor officiating: a contributing factor in Big 12 game

[Touchdown Tommie]

It is all part of human error....were there some bad calls? There sure was, but it went both ways. These guys will NEVER call a perfect game and I cannot blame NU for losing this game on officiating. There were far too many other things that NU did not do to win this game.

There was also a BJax fumble in the 1st qtr that was not called. When we were throwing out of our own endzone, there was holding on that play that wasn't called, it would have been a safety. Shanle got burned, grabbed the arms of an OU wr and got away with it.

Bad calls go both ways, and Patrick did get out of the endzone.

It is a lame excuse to blame officiating. These guys are the best of the best in the conference. If you think that you could go out and do a better job than they do I dare you to try it. You would get eaten alive by these guys.

How many times did we have the ball inside the 50 and just could not get that play to get over the hump. Blame our team for not performing when it mattered most. Credit OU for playing great defense with its backs against the wall. But dont for one second blame the officials.

We got a few brakes as well. An obvious fumble in the first haff. We lost and that is all there is to it. I have seen alot worse officiating in my day.

The officials did not fumble the balls or throw INTs.

Speaking of bad officiating, did anyone see the Rutger's WV game? At least I think that this was the game where I saw the call. There was a penalty during the play and a persona foul on the other team AFTER the play. They assessed the 10 yards for the hold (or whatever) and THEN assessed the personal foul, automatic first down. It was NOT offsetting (as it was in the CU game). I mean, it seems obvious. The personal foul was after the play, dead ball. K? So that is OUTSIDE of the play. So if the guy would have just punched taylor 10 seconds after the play, would THAT have been offset by the illegal forward pass? No. So whether it happens .5 seconds after the play or 10 seconds after the play, it happened AFTER THE PLAY. THey don't offset.

Anyway... that's my rant. That was one of the worst calls I've ever seen.
