So then why doesn't he give any proof whatsoever to back up his claims? If he can't provide proof, then everything he is saying is nothing more than baseless accusation.

Read this article last night and an FSU fan and myself discussed it. We aren't sure exactly what the point of the article is, since he never says anything like "they picked up a flag when it was illegal to do so."
If he is just pointing out that the SEC does their officiating differently, and it is illegal because of that, then I understand. But, if it isn't done to favor one team over another, does it change the result of a game? Like is the SEC 'Cheating' (use that word extremely loosely here of course) when non-conference teams are in, so those OOC teams are playing by different rules when SEC officials are calling the game?

It's not like he is some two-bit hack job posting youtube videos from his trailer park.
Sure he isn't providing proof, but he does have an extensive reputation and highly relevant subject matter expertise. So yea it's a little more than a "baseless accusation" and it should make you at least a little curious.
