Blatant pass interference call missed against S.C.

When will Slive make the poor officiating a priority?

SEC is the best conference in the nation yet we have the worst refs.

Good grief!

They should at least allow the coaches to complain about thr officiating in press conference and stop protecting them.

All protecting them has done is allow the conference to ignore the problem.

I blame Slive.

Doesn't look like the officiating got any better over the off season.

That was just a total BLOWN CALL! The Ref was staring right at the play and you mean to tell me he didn't see the S.Car cb RIP the WR hand. I hate to say it but it really makes me wonder. Those calls go the top teams way every time, and its been like that for years now. No excuse to let the refs start this same ol shite again!

Every conference thinks they have the worst refs. I know the Big XII refs suck too. They certainly did all they could screw A&M last year and NU the year before.

Hate to see a team lose on such a blatantly blown call. There ought to a way for the coaches to challenge the call IMO.

You don't see too many that blatant...

The official with the responsibility to make that call should be.... and I think will be suspended for at least one game.


This is an opportunity for Slive to set the tone for the season that we aren't going to let incompetent refs frick it up

Each game that SEC refs call are graded the next wk by the SEC head of officials. But those grades are never released & any disicpline is never acknowledged. But don't just blame Slive, they've been this bad for yrs. A good friend was told to go out & call games at the mid college level & build up his game resume, for a few yrs & then check back. He called games all over the country, graded out in the top 10 % each yr, so when he went back to the SEC, he expected to get hired as he knew there were several openings that yr. Long story, short version, he was told that the league had "quotas" to fill & there were no openings. Yet, he knew 3 refs who got hired who had less experience than he did.....but they had family members already calling games. This is why SEC refs suck.

If SEC refs went on strike many of our prayers will have been answered.

I'd also use Vandy's $ to lawyer up and file a civil suit against Slive and the SEC for limiting freedom of speech and alienating Franklin's rights as a black man in America. (gotta get Sharpton and Jesse on board)

With the exception of Florida Arkansas refs who were publicly reprimanded/ suspended. Also sec refs can't even get it right with replay half the time.

its a disgrace for the sec to be the premiere football conference in the nation and ALWAYS have sub-par refs. i'm embarrassed every bowl season when ooc teams have to deal with our refs.

those Pac12 refs in the BYU/WSU game were god awful.

what was funny was seeing all the fans from different Pac12 schools recognize the crew by name and instantly start talking about how that group in particular is terrible.
