Read this article last night and an FSU fan and myself discussed it. We aren't sure exactly what the point of the article is, since he never says anything like "they picked up a flag when it was illegal to do so."

If he is just pointing out that the SEC does their officiating differently, and it is illegal because of that, then I understand. But, if it isn't done to favor one team over another, does it change the result of a game? Like is the SEC 'Cheating' (use that word extremely loosely here of course) when non-conference teams are in, so those OOC teams are playing by different rules when SEC officials are calling the game?

From the way I read the article, it sounded like he was saying that the SEC officials either didn't know how to enforce/penalize the call, or just didn't really know what the rule actually was so they had to ask someone else what the call and/or the enforcement of the call should actually be. I guess he's saying the SEC officials are so stupid that someone off the field has to interpret the rules for them.

I read it as there was a flag thrown about intentional grounding, and picked up when some 'mystery dude' told them to pick it up. So I could see your explanation being true, but I could also people people running with it and saying "they picked it up to help team XX"

Was an odd story that seemed like a lot of drivel
