You're missing the point. I don't want examples of poor officiating or missed calls.
WHY would the SEC conspire to cheat for Bama?

Peterson was called juggling the ball. It has been shown over and over, was reviewed and not overturned. But does LSU accept it? No...it must have been cheating.
And somehow LSU has convinced themselves that cost them the game. Never mind they were behind by two scores and made exactly 2 first downs and 60 yards total offense that second half. Never mind that they needed an interception, AND a miraculous revieved offense from zero to good, not once but twice to get close.
The belief in this is so strong down here that it defies any rationality. It is truly, honestly widely believed that Alabama runs the SEC office, picks refs with ties to the University, who know exactly when to intervene.
This fantastic set of imaginary beliefs will never go away...I deal with it every day.

If the refs were conspiring, they blew a great chance to do it in a big game when it mattered.
Lsu WR benefited from a similar call in the UF game last year that went the other way.
Refs miss calls all the time. The losing team just happens to focus on them more; it's human nature to help rationalize a loss.
