Snake Coker kinda got a ring to it. dont drag him into this shite I kinda like the kid.
I'd like to see stats from the SEC office on which crews had the most bs plays submitted after games. IDGAF about conspiracy but I will say that Austin, Wagers and Ritter's crews all suck and should be fired on merit alone. I'd bet a dollar to a donught those 3 get exponentially more complaints from ALL the coaches just because they are terrible refs. you will even find Bama fans bitching about them when they arent too busy crying about their grass being wet.

Yea, Ritter's crew sucks.
I mean, did everyone forget the Ole Miss game? That was Ritter's crew. They blew the man downfield and they overturned 2 huge calls (rightly I think, but still) on the sack fumble and the illegal pass downfield.

That's the real answer. SEC refs are just bad and when your team loses - particularly in close or rivalry games - fans look for reasons other than 'we just got beat'. Officiating is an easy target and, unfortunately, mistakes are easy to find.
And you're right, we all do it. Bama fans bitch about clearly missed illegal men downfield calls that gave our opponents touchdowns but don't mind a clearly missed facemask call that gave us one.

The thing that nobody wants to talk about is that these SEC Referee crews are graded each and every week, and that's typically what determines what games they get to call.
Ritter's crew gets the majority of the "big games" because his crew is considered the #1 SEC crew in terms of grading.
I'd be interested in seeing an inside look at that and how it works.
