Surprised no Bama fan has brought up the catch Arkansas had against them in the early 90's to win in Tuscaloosa. Could have gone either way.

Lunney to Meadors

Wasn't a penalty, but certainly was a questionable catch ruling.

All good. Your incessant barking has to be tough to overcome.

One of the best compliments I've ever recieved was after going to a game with a friend he said "I've never heard a man bark that loud"

Gurley's TD call back due to a phantom holding call on a KO.


Auburn game? if so, there was definitely a hold

The spearing/Helmet to helmet call against Chad Jones against Arky.

Ref simply called it because the receiver was obliterated.

NO angle showed helmet contact.


That was such a strange play. I don't even blame the ref that much.

So, regarding your typically obsessive and sick early morning diatribe regarding Alabama- only one of your three examples could be construed as a 'phantom' call. The rest of the post is simply an incoherent yet fascinating journey into the deep recesses of a lost soul.

Haha- the 'bounce pass?' I thought about that but didn't think it really fit in with the phantom call angle. Nor does the brilliantly designed and implemented 12 man offense y'all used to great success like the next year, you bastards!

They didn't know what to do, lol. A dead receiver and 100k people celebrating. Game was over if not for that flag.

Not my team, or even the SEC. But how in the world could you not rule the Nebraska guy down? 1988 Nebraska at UCLA

AJ Green's phantom celebration penalty that gave LSU great field position.


Then you would agree Charles Scott's phantom celebration penalty a few plays later was every bit as seemingly egregious.Georgia had an opportunity to have good field position but unlike LSU,did not capitalize on it.

Called Targeting on a key 4th down play on UGA's side of the field. Had this been the proper no-call, UGA wins. Instead, the flag is thrown, Vandy milks the clock, Dawgs lose.

That's not my style. I prefer to just drink beer and chill with fans of both teams.

South Carolina game, I think. Multiple replays showed that nothing had happened.

The Ramik call was 10x worse. The call against Ray was atrocious but the call against Ramik not only cost us the game but signaled a new nutless era in the game of football: If you hit him too hard, no matter how clean, we're going to flag you for being mean

This is the point LSU fans always make while completely overlooking the main point. Due the AJ call we kicked off from 15 yards further back. You're a smart guy so I don't need to tell you that I'm sure LSU's playcalling would be if they started at the 20 as opposed to midfield.

Yes, obviously our tackling was crap on the TD run, but the point is that run doesn't happen if LSU isn't already starting basically at the 50.
