Did the officials get this wrong in the national championship game?

This gets lost in the hysteria over ‘muh refs heppin’ Bama’ talk.

Just an FYI...knowing how the game ended, I’m glad he wasn’t ruled out of bounds. Even though I believe he was.

Nope, it was not conclusive.

FWIW, I thought he was out. I wasn't 100% sure, but I was relatively confident.

I thought they were going to overturn it, but I guess it has to be conclusive.

I can clearly see his foot on the line.

I can conclude it.

correct, had he been ruled out of bounds, that ruling would not have been over turned either, the ref ruled in bounds, and the play stands as called

You can’t clearly see his foot on the line. Look at the dam line. Nothing clear about any of it.

But if this is where you gotta go to play the “we didn’t get all the calls” card, it pretty much proves you did, in fact, get all the calls

The funny thing is you notice the imperfection of the not so straight line so depending on what yard he’s at his foot could be in or out.

Not sure but it was a great pass. Our passing game should be incredible this year. Hardman, Godwin, Ridley, D-Rob...Cook and Swift splitting out.

This is gonna be a different looking UGA offense. I also think the defense will look different, more aggressive..they will have to be.

Yes. Black touching white IS conclusive. He's out of bounds.

BAMA didn't get helped in the game, people just like to whine.

On the "almost" interception in the end zone, not only was he out of bounds when he got possession, but our receiver was tackled before the ball got there and should have been pass interference.

On the mythical punt block, refs missed two or more BAMA players moving early and should have been a false start. So even if the UGA player wasn't offside it was still a play that should have never happened.

Only reason I bring up these two other examples is, like you, I have seen a lot of blaming the refs. The refs didn't give BAMA the game.

In every game there are calls that can go either way, or go the wrong way. It's just part of it.
