What should put the conspiracy theories to rest is that after the timeout controversy, Georgia’s drive was stalled by the (technically correct) blindside block penalty on Georgia. Georgia ended up missing the subsequent field goal. It doesn’t seem like a chain of events that would be part of a grand conspiracy. Additionally, I can’t imagine how much Auburn fans would be crying today if one of their big plays was called back for a blindside block penalty.

After the missed field goal, Auburn had the ball in the fourth quarter trailing by 3 and went three and out and punted back to Georgia, who put together a TD drive to seal the game. That’s why Auburn lost.

There favoritism toward certain teams/coaches. Refs are people. People like people, and dont like others. Its not hard to understand

Trying to defend it makes you look like a POS.

Honestly, that’s probably the most correct take. If anything, Kirby being the longest tenured HC means he knows all the refs well. Definitely knew what to say to get out of a delay of game and get the free timeout.

Just the casual good ole boy stuff that dominates the South in business, politics, etc.

What's not hard to understand is, Auburn got beat by a better team.

In fact, they should consider themselves fortunate that the score was not 27-10, because since it was ruled a fumble, Jones never touched the ground and he should have had a runback TD.

It's really irrelevant whether that particular play had an impact on this particular game. The issue is the consistent utter incompetence, possibly corruption, of SEC officials.

This is not even meant as an insult but you seriously have problems that you are this angry and vested that you insult people who aren’t denigrating Auburn or you personally.

We know that Hugh Freeze’s offense sucks and I expect him to be fired soon. That doesn’t excuse bad officiating when it’s multiple calls in one game. It wasn’t just the timeout which was egregious on its on.

Blackjack, I see that you signed up about 1 week ago. You probably need to pace yourself. This much rage in such a short time makes for a brief stay on the Rant

Timeout gate has already been debunked several times so Kirby is innocent. He is a man of honor.
I can’t believe it’s been nearly a decade since the war damns have beat dem dawgs. Wow that’s bad.

Yea that Auburn is known for clapping on defense and never gets called for it just like they did there.

I've only casually paid attention. I had no idea how bad it was until yesterday.

Everybody's played a minimum of 2 and some as many as 4 conference games. Here's the list of teams yet to have 300+ yards of total offense in a conference game:

Auburn

That's the list. Of Auburn's opponents, the only SEC team to put up fewer yards on one of them was Kentucky (270 to 278) against UGA and even then UK managed 14 points.

That's just
