I think the refs do a great job every week. Trying to do what they do at the speed and of the size of the players is almost impossible. Especially when you consider they get to do their job just 10-12 times in the fall under an incredible microscope. And that's just 10-12 times per year.

Comparatively, NBA and MLB guys should be perfect since they get 82-162 games plus exhibitions per year and they still miss calls.

I compare it to video games proficiency. If you played those 10-12 times in the fall for just a few hours, take a week off and repeat and you couldn't practice more than say once in the spring, how bad would you suck at it? Is there any other profession or vocation you get to practice less every year than football officials?

Anybody who doesn't think the sec refs are pretty damn good is a damn Moran.

The officials cost South Carolina a victory last night when some thug Tennessee defensive linemen pushed the SC QB to the ground after the play was over and he was trying to get up. Didn't call the late hit, which would have given them the first down and would have allowed them to take a knee and run out the clock.
