Legit call to be honest. Two things make it so.

1) You don't ever drag a player up, particularly by the leg and jersey, and especially after the official warns you to stop it.

2) LaFell made no major effort to get up from under Bowman. It's stupid, but if he acts like he is struggling to get up, and Bowman isn't moving it forces the ref to call the delay penalty. Since LaFell just sat there, it made it not as big a deal.

if would have definitely been better for Hitt to just do nothing as everyone watched time expire with the PSU player lying on the ground.

:roleyes:

I don't fault him as you can only assume the ref was never going to call the delay as we watched him do nothing as ling as he did.

The penalty was pretty much one play in a crappy game for both teams. Had LSU held on to one of 6 potential interceptions thrown by clark the game could have been much different. The penalty at the end didn't assure a loss, didn't take a way a loss. Playing crappy, both teams all game long was much much more important. Neither deserved to win, one had to. LSU played more crappy than PSU.
