Some of y'all need to go back to after the florida game and compare sam's team message with petrinos. You simply gotta make sure it's not that close next time

That was the first thing I said after the loss.
Old football saying that “You can’t leave it up to the refs on the road.”
But that said, the refs are scumbags, so is the SEC replay officials, and so is their PR department.
All of that can be true at the same time.

Absolutely, Lane is at least calling them out.

It can be but as our coaches react so do the players so the coaches stayed consistent with the right message it's a good sign

I understand if Sam is telling the team to not make it close enough next time
But if we're being honest, we're never going to consistently win big on the road with the talent differences. If the refs are going to consistently frick us against big opponents then wtf are we doing if we're not making a big deal out of it.

We've gotten fricked a couple times but I don't remember it being consistent or only us that's been fricked

You're correct in that at least - Ole Miss has a complaint this year also.
That's why my OP referenced Lane Kiffin.
As for 'not being consistent'... let's ask this - how many egregious calls has... say... an Arkansas/Ole Miss/Kentucky had a favorable result on when playing... say... an Alabama/Auburn/Florida?
Do you remember any?

No but I've only watched a small sample and am only emotionally attached enough to the hogs for it to register as really bad
I definitely do remember us getting favorable calls and stuff at times too....

Again - can you (or anyone) reference or even remember a pivotal, game-altering call that went favorably for us or a similarly-pigeonholed team against an Auburn/Alabama/Florida?
I'm going to state I'm very doubtful you can.
There are favorable calls, and then there are calls involving teams that will alter expectations at the top of the conference.
The ability to influence isn't always there. But when it is there's a commonality to how they play out as I've seen it over the years.
I'm not alone in that sentiment, and whether you like Lane Kiffin and his approach to this or not the fact remains - absolutely nothing real or perceived will change unless there is strong reaction from the member programs of the conference.

JJ Meadors vs Alabama. There was no way to see if he made a clean catch or trapped that ball, but we got the call and won the game. Outside of that, no, I can't remember getting any calls.

I didn’t say that our coaches handled it incorrectly.
If a coach wants to holler about it a little bit, they know their roster and how they will react to it better than me,
The bad calls having probably decided three games this season, all with Auburn, is a little concerning.
You can be concerned about the officiating AND either be or not be concerned about coaches talking publicly about it. One isn’t related to the other.
My issue is that Auburn should likely be 1-4 right now. But being 3-2, that game could put them ahead of us in the standings at the end of the season and affect which bowl game we attend (if we have bowls).
It’s a little more than just an L
