Refs protecting their won

Four-Star Recruit
The refs from the Florida game 3 weeks ago were suspended for one game for making a holding call that never happened. Of course this enabled Florida to go on and score the game winning TD.

Then in last nights Cincy/WV game, Cincy fumbles the ball on the 1/2 yard line or so. Replay showed that he DID NOT get the ball over the TD plane! However after review the "booth" official calls it a TD and Cincy goes on to win by 3 points! Pathetic call! The announcers were surprised to say the "least" with the overturn of on field call!

SO I guess if you are in the TOP 5 or so your conference officials will try to make sure that you continue your run to the National Champ game and all the league money that goes with it!

Look out for Texas if they get in a close game! :steam

 
I'm just sick of the florida talk. Remember at the beginning of the year the talk was if they win another national title they could be the best team ever? haha. not even close.

Really tired of the TEBOW talk! He is good very good but he has yet to reach "GOD" status as the announcers think!

 
Yeah that call last night was awful. It was close but not inconclusive so it shouldn't have been overturned.

 
Myself & several others that were watching the game through that the ball had clearly crossed the plane. I didn't think that it was even close-it was well across when he went up in the air.

It looked clear that the ball crossed the plane, but not as clear that the runner still had control when it did.

Crazy talk, Tebow can score touchdowns while at the same time performing a C-Section on some Phillipino chick in the jungle!!!! :sarcasm

If you look at his stats compared to other very good QB, his arnt that great. If you compare them to Colt McCoy, you will see that Colt has better stats. Tim Tebow is all about popularity. I think if he doesnt get the heisman ESPN is going to have a meltdown

Exactly. There was nowhere near the threshold of proof that you need to overturn that call.

It was one of the worst replay calls I've ever seen.

Three titles in 4 years? hmmm. Nothing Nebraska never accomplished and I mean titles won going undefeated, not losing one or two games in the procesee (LSU,and Florida twice, USC 2003), not to metion, NU was 2 plays of pisspoor officiating (one of which replay at the time wouldve overturned) and a flubug from a FIVE-PEAT. Funny how no one wants to compare to or talk about that five year run by Nebraska. That USC's twiddly 2 title (one of which was even split in the BCS system, which is just disgusting) how ever many year run atop a soft pac-10 is still the greates run ever, despite finding a way to crap their pants in an obvious gimme win every year. Now it's Florida bla bla bla.

 
I think Tebow is a very good player and with his size and passion, he could revolutionize QB play in the NFL.

BUT..... I don't think he is the same player he was before the concussion. It's obvious.

This is also the main reason Frazier never got a Heisman, I believe.

Also, with this trend, I can't wait to see us get screwed against Texas.
