To everyone who made fun of the notion, you just saw a prime example of it.

That play doesn't get reviewed. That was BS. That was a catch.

Was Auburn out of timeouts?

They could have challenged, no?

Now is there any doubt that Auburn will indeed get in trouble? This is happening so the BCS title won't get vacated.


I kid. It's just an interesting angle.

1. It was not a catch, every time they freeze framed it the ball was near his fricking facemask, not even in possession.

2. You're saying the refs are biased beacuse they called such a close play like that incomplete when that would've been called incomplete 90% of the time? GTFO.

That is the 4th very bad call all favoring bama.

This is rising to and may surpass refgate 2006.

What you are witnessing is the pecking order. When Alabama teams play out of state SEC teams the Alabama teams get the calls. When Alabama plays Auburn, Alabama gets the calls. It's been that way for years.

You can't count on the replay guy getting it right anyway.

I have never been one to blame a team's performance, or lack thereof, on officiating, but I do think the argument could be made that there is a conflict of interest involving the SEC in their being headquartered in Birmingham.

Leave it to a LSU fan to cry about ref bias in a game that LSU doesn't even play in.
