Ritter's history of hating LSU.

Was listening to AFR(I think) on Baton Rouge 104.5 ESPN radio a day or 2 ago.
One of the guys said he was compiling stats on how often Ritter's crews flag. LSU through the years. Said the results were disturbing, and that he would present them when they were done.
Anyone in the SELA area hear any follow-up on that? Just curious.
I never thought of Ritter as a bad ref, but am willing to look at hard data.

My God, shut the frick UP about this. I respect LSU on so many levels and I love their fans (half of my family lives in BR) but this shite is getting out of hand. It's like you expect it so much that any little thing that happens, it's like "SEE THEY HATE US!!!1!!"

Did you read my post, or just the thread title?

As the Valley Shook has a detailed analysis on this very topic.
They posted it... *yesterday*.

But I know what you're thinking... it's not really the SEC that's out to get us, it's Tom Ritter. Is there any truth to accusation that Ritter is a flag-happy jerk who is out to get LSU? Well, I can speak to his personality or his motives, but we can look at his performance. And, buy, does he like to flag LSU. Let's look at all of the SEC referees together, and see who stands out.

quote:
The average SEC ref flags LSU 6.86 times for 56.63 yards, and has a penalty margin of 1.77-15.51. That's, as we've established above, the worst in the SEC. Ritter seemed to take that as a challenge and he flags LSU an average of 10.14 times for 81.86 yards at a ridiculous margin of 5.29-38.00.
If you remove Ritter from LSU's averages, LSU gets flagged 6.06 times per game for 49.86 yards at a margin of 1.00 times for 10.89. Still a bad ratio, but it lops off nearly five yards of penalty yard margin from LSU's average. Nearly a third of LSU's penalty margin comes from the games Ritter officiates.

Shouldn't y'all be working on your T rex imitation or getting your cheerleader outfits ready for your epic clash with E. Michigan? How many awful teams do y'all get to play this year anyway? Who makes the schedules for the SEC?

Ftr it was a host or a special guest, not a caller or anything.

The stats are on r/cfb right now and they actually are disturbing. We're flagged at a MUCH higher rate than other teams by SEC crews. Refs can throw a flag on basically every single play if they want to and if you can't see that SEC refs are fricking us around and going overboard then you're a moron
