Yeah, Gator. Its not as if we have the clout to influence THE ENTIRE SPORTS-VIEWING POPULATION OF THE COUNTRY.

Every last national radio host who talks about NCAA football has agreed that we got fricked.

The only people who don't see it that way are Florida fans.

It about freaking time. Officating has sucked for years. We used to be the best in the damn 80-mid 90's

The rumor about this crew working this weekend in ttown is false. That crew was off and that is why their suspension starts Oct 31.

They could just assign them to all of the Vandy games. Then even if they screw up it won't really effect the outcome of the game.

And all you who said drop it, what say you now? I think all the outcry help get rid of these incompetent, unethical refs. I think their checking accounts should be investigated.

Thank God. I didn't need the SEC to validate what I saw with my own two eyes. IT'S ABOUT frickIN TIME somebody begins to hold piece of shite cheating refs accountable!

Btw, Germans, as far as I'm concerned....

It is great. The SEC office is sending them back out to call some make-up calls for UGA for the penalty in the UGA-LSU game. Seems the office doesn't feel like the make-up call on LSU was good enough.

And by no way am I suggesting that the "no call" obvious holding call against Florida against LSU cost us the game, but sure would like to have seen how the game would have gone had they not allowed that TD. They also had a quick whistle two plays prior to the TD when Sheppard (#11) stripped the ball from Tebow on the first down play (he never went down). And of course we all remember the great officiating in the Georgia game.

If those guys truly are that incompetent the SEC needs to fire them or do whatever it is the NFL does with their refs. Suspending them will only make their already bad judgement worse.

I for one am glad to see some accountability, finally.

This after many calls over the last few years that are totally inexplicable. My impression as an LSU fan is that LSU was on the short end of that particular stick numerous times, especially when something was on the line.

I know fans of other schools feel the same. And as I watched Arkansas battle Florida last weekend I had a case of deja-vu. Those two back to back PF calls, and the no call on Cooper for Offensive PI were totally bogus.

Good. About damn time some of these guys are being called out for their (some might say deliberate) mistakes.

I have no problem losing when we are outplayed.

Officials having the say in the outcome of a game I will not accept. No one should
