I have seen forty threads on this, but not one video example of where we held and it wasn't called. someone bring some evidence next time so we have something to actually discuss

And another thing...that string of passes without an interception can't be legit. Obviously there must be some kind of protection from the ref in that. And Ingrams lack of fumbles...OBVIOUSLY something fishy there. No way is this just good coaching.

I just wish Nebraska's kicker hadn't kicked the ball out of bounds after they took the lead with 1:44 left, giving Texas the ball at the 40...because it would be a different story otherwise.

I also wish Nebraska hadn't gotten that horse collar tackle on the first play after that kick, tacking 15 yards onto the end of a 14 yard pass play...because it would be a different story otherwise.

We can do this ignorant shite ALL NIGHT LONG.

yeah, we all know that bama is being protected by the refs, the last year was a fix by the SEC, and mccoy took a dive in the NC game.....

They've posted videos, but what they consider holding....isn't. It has to meet the requirements of 9-3-3 (pretty sure of the section, but it's early .)

7 guys are watching 22 so there will be missed calls because there is no way to see everything on every play. I'd really like to see some of these missing holding calls, but so far nobody has posted a legit example.

It's because the SEC office is in Alabama and many of the refs live in Bammerland.

Bama Can't Hold?
Heard Musberger state during NC game that Bama hadn't been called for holding in something like 46 straight regular season quarters. Don't subscribe to many conspiracy theories, but NOBODY'S that good. Is the SEC protecting Bama and Fla?


Bama is/was well coached and disciplined. If they weren't , then holding calls would have been made.

That same head coach was at LSU and had plenty of holding calls when he was there. The difference is where the SEC office is located.

biiiiiiiiitch please.

It's all about Bama carrying more WEIGHT than LSU when Saban is/was the coach at each school.

Was the UT kicker paid off to kick low and was the UT O-line paid to not block T. Cody? Was Neiko Thorpe paid to not pick up the back coming out of the backfield?

If they were, there is a conspiracy...because those were the palys that got Bama to the Title game...not mystery no calls.

Bullsh!t.

Every team holds, there is holding on every play it is a judgement call as to whether it was bad enough to warrant a holding penalty.

Saban's teams have never been this disciplined and never this lightly penalized even in 2003 the LSU team had more penalties than any team he's had thus far at Bama.

There was some pretty obvious home cooking to keep the top teams alive last year in the SEC. I'm not so much as saying it is just in favor of bama or UF but the teams at the top of the heap in the SEC.
