re: The play to the TE was a clear as day fumble. Couldnt even get a simple replay.

The refs told O they looked at it upstairs and not to call a timeout because it was not going to be reversed.
The only thing the SEC needs to do different for the watching public at home is to have more transparency. Don't just let it go with no explanation from game officials that leads to speculation. Address it and make sure the viewers know it was reviewed.
Without that, of course, everyone thinks it's not on the up and up.
That review official must have been really looking though when he caught Mond's knee on the ground briefly.

Anyone who has watched football for a while and seen a few challenges knows that if a call is close as hell the one made on the field is going to stand 100% of the time.

There was zero need for explanation.

Nicholas, that is an excellent suggestion. Here is another... the freaking TV talking heads need to shut up about second guessing the refs. They didn’t used to do it, but now it is an every play occurrence. Often they get the rules wrong and their subsequent I’ll informed opinions just incite a fan base with their crap.

A prime example a few years ago was the Notre Dame interference-fumble recovery against Alabama. The announcers talked about it for ten minutes yet never understood the rule. Six years later, the play is mentioned and most STILL don’t know the rule.
