Who gets the holding calls in the game of the century 3? Im sure the back room meetings are using a wide variety of matrix to decide on who will get the blind eye next Saturday.


What say non game of the century fans. Who you got?


I think they will stick with LSU. They are too deep with them to bail now.

LSU holding calls - 1 (late in the 4th quarter)
Bama holding calls - 5

Auburn holds, but Bo throws it to the ground and teams take intentional grounding. Looked like LSU pass rush was far superior than Auburn’s in the game. A team with a strong pass rush typically gets held more. There were plenty to go around and you can make an argument for every play in a football game if you want to.

Fact is, LSU wasted opportunities to score and game was close enough to continue to allow Auburn to complain about everything. Even their players are claiming they dominated. That’s a sad lie.

I have never seen a team get outgained 508-287 then think they lost because of holding. Maybe you lost because your overhyped qb cant fricking throw unless its garbage time and hes trying to lose by single digits.

"To continue the cover up, holding will be called on Alabama."

Wow, I never knew Auburn fans were so whiny. Our fans have been over the top on the ref complaints, but you guys are making up ground fast.

It will be the first time in the history of this matchup then.

Last years game was the best called game I’ve seen in a while and we got our asses beat. I hope they call
It the same way but I hope for a vastly different outcome.

Ever how many they need to make it a super close game so that both teams get in the playoff Sankey-style.

The refs tend to help LSU the most, so I’ve got a stick with LSU.

God Au3urn fans are such pussies

You were gifted a TD on a phantom PI call on Stingley.

You lost, get over it.

I might agree with this notion if we were talking a decade worth of games.

We played on Saturday. It’s now Tuesday.

I haven’t even given Auburn a second thought since three years ago.

Time to move on and do something productive.

I could see it.

REC may sense the best move is to repeat 2011 and 2017 and give Bama that extra week of rest. Let LSU get all full of themselves, tire themselves out in Atlanta and then Bama rolls into the CFP ready to win their two games and clock out.

Also, it takes the winds out of the LSU narrative re: Bama getting all the calls. It's the 4D chess move.

I’m not cynical enough to believe the REC is real.

Bama will get holding called because when the O Line gets beat, they hold. It’s advantageous to take a penalty and have a 1st and 20 than take a sack and have a 2nd and 16.

Really getting pitiful to see a once proud auburn fan base resort to this. Forget the horrible play calling, the horrible 3rd down %, being out gained 500+ to like 280. Half of that on 2 plays. Asking nix to throw late n the half instead of taking the 3 and the lead at halftime is one example of many as to why Auburn lost. And holding wasn’t one of them. Should have been a blow out. Kudos to Steele for keeping it close.

Do any of you AU crybabies not remember 2006? Affectionately referred to as Grand Theft Auburn? There were at least 8 horrible calls in that game including picking up the flag on the PI at then end of the game.
