Our coaching isn't.

I can't even believe how many calls those refs made to kill our momentum of give rocky top mulligans.

It felt fixed, as if they needed this end result and on key downs and situations they looked to find anything they could blow a whistle on to keep things from breaking out.

Just part of looking for the upset. I don't think it's literally fixed like the NBA, but I think refs in most sports have a tendency to play to the crowd in a close game. So on those big plays where the crowd gets into it they are more focused than usual. The reality is that a penalty could be called on damn near every play, so it's telling when they were mostly called on plays whose results constituted a big momentum swing.
