Because Fournette was averaging 3.8 yards a carry in the game and it would be a safe assumption to think he could get 5 yards in at least 2 plays, possibly 3 if we went for it on a hypothetical 4th and 1 and not kicked the field goal.
But I think what the Gumps are ignoring is the fact that there was a total of 5 penalties called all game (3 on Bama and 2 on LSU) and 3 of those 5 occurred in the last minute of the game and in overtime. One of the 3 was a false start on Bama in OT so the refs could not control that, but the PF on both teams was BS. Seems like really bad timing to start throwing out flags for both teams, that should have occurred much earlier in the game instead of the last 1:13 of regulation and OT.

It sucks. Consider this: 1) They gave Bama a touchdown against Ole Miss right before the half by not calling the flagrant facemask that caused the fumble returned for a TD,which could have cost Ole Miss the game, but didn't. 2) They called a questionable unsportsmanlike penalty on LSU at a critical time which probably cost LSU the game. 3)They missed the late hit on Treadwell in Ole Miss/Auburn which would have given Ole Miss first and goal at the one yard line with about a minute left. Bad calls have had a huge impact on the SEC race this year more than any other. Worst part is, the constant reviews don't seem to make them any better.

Everyone knows what is going on.Let Bama loose 2 more games and then maybe even the gumps will start to bitch too.

To be fair We have been bitching about it before the season has started. It it so bad it has gotten national attention. They just suck plain and simple.
The SEC became a great conference when we stopped hiring the Good Ole Boys as coaches and hired the best coaches available. Saban, Miles, Myers, etc etc. It is time to do the same damn thing with the refs, and end the good ole boys bullshite and hire the best available. Ritter etc are not it. They should be junior high games in Iowa or something. If we let them go, I promise you they would not get a job in a top five conference.
