and on key downs and situations they looked to find anything they could blow a whistle on


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.

I agree but calling one every key down? Quick whistle when you see a strip coming but none when you see a stopped player being pushed?

They literally watch Bryce's head get driven backward in a target late hit and they said "no foul, nothing to see here".

Bryce gets punched in the head? "All good!".

There was more to that game than the regular crappy SEC officiating. They literally were the difference in around +15 points.

Both FGs we made Bryce was assaulted with no call. A call is made and we score an extra 4-8 points. That last TD drive where they fumbled then threw and INT was an abomination.
