How many Bama SECranters will admit that it was a great call by the refs...

...when Reid took the ball away from Williams? I thought it was obviously a great play by the best safety in the SEC, as Williams was bobbling the ball on the way to the ground. Reid took advantage of that and got the INT. All day long, I have been hearing from some Bama fans that it was a horrible call and cost them a 14th National Championship. Now, the fans that know the rules and such admitted it was a great call and moved on.

How do the Bammers on the SECr feel? I'm just wondering, no flame. It was a great game. However, the better team made the plays neccessary to win. Which was LSU...

Only morons think it was a bad call. It's as conclusive as they come.

It was a pick, no question about it.

My UNBIASED opinion was that it was the correct call. They did make a bad call when Kirkpatrick ran into the Honey Badger and then faked an injury.

I posted this in another thread but it is appropriate to post here.. Below is just an example of some of the crap I've been reading today... These people are morons...

" Been watching football longer than I care too.....NEVER have seen a two-handed catch by Bama, then while falling still hanging on, only to have LSU guy grab it while on ground. So now the "interception has been redfined"

Other people claim if it weren't a Bama catch then it should have been an incompletion? Really? How in the hell do you call a ball that never hits the ground a incomplete pass?

Clueless some of them are!!

It was clearly an interception. I'm not sure anyone on here is even disputing that.

I only wish Maze had made a tighter throw to get it in ahead of Reid. Dude is faaaast.

I thought it was a good call when I watched the replay. Sucked, but it was the correct call.

I think it was a shitty call. Doesnt mean it was the wrong call though. I would have liked to have first and goal at the one but Im a Bama homer

It was a make up call for Peterson's "interception" in '09.








Nah, it was the right call.

Call on the field was an INT. Replay had to be indisputable. It was not and the correct call was made. If the call on the field was a reception, it would have been confirmed as a reception. Too close for even replay to overturn.

It was the right call. Williams never really had possession of the ball and the pictures show that Reid has his hands on the inside of it well before they hit the ground. Doesn't make it hurt any less though

Good call. Reid got lucky and the ball fell in his lap.
