re: how can alabama defend the missed call on the blocked punt?

quote:

they keep saying that if the refs hadn't made a bad call on the non-offsides it wouldn't have mattered - becauee of the false start on Alabama. but the refs didn't see a false start. it wasn't called. instead, to add insult to injury, they called a penalty against Georgia.

how screwed up is that? the refs missed a real penalty against Alabama which actually would've benefited Georgia, but instead called a non-existent penalty against Georgia to make sure there was no blocked punt.

and Alabama says no harm.

So, your argument is that instead of missing a call that negatively affected Georgia, they should have missed a call that would have negatively affected Alabama... so as to avoid poor officiating.

Yeah, that makes sense.
