At the 1:03:35 mark

Yeah. They talked about that a lot on sports radio here in Little Rock today.

Really lousy commentary by Blackledge, I thought. Doesn't matter that Hand tried to spin away. The RT hooked him and slung him down. And the assertion that the umpire is only supposed to look guard to guard is lame, because at about the 45:30 mark you can see Hand and the RT slide left into the guard position. The umpire was looking exactly where he was supposed to be, and as you can see in the photo, right at the hold.

Some fans will whine anyway, but accurate analysis by the commentator can shut a lot of that down before it starts. That was a hold all day long.

I will maintain that the lack of holding calls on this DL is criminal in its magnitude. It is to the point I would be thrilled with them calling 1 out 4 just on the down lineman. Don't even get me started on the blitzes.

And Bert actually asked the SEC to not assign that umpire to their games again. What a jackass.

Apparently he was still pissed about a call than referee made three years ago.

I still chuckled at Berts interview with Holly at halftime.

I live in Conway. If you have an Alabama sticker or something like that and you have a random person honk at you for no reason, it's probably me. I love seeing other Bama fans around here. Good to see I'm not the only one in enemy territory.
