HOLY CRAP. I didn't see the game but I just saw the TD catch. That dude didn't get control of that ball until he was 3 yds out of bounds. There was a Penn State "catch" against Nebraska in 1982 that may have been the only call I've ever seen worse than that. The Rebel fans shouldn't have acted the way they did but my Goodness What were the people in B'ham looking at? If replay is gonna be used like this then just don't bother.

You will learn that the SEC refs are the worst in all of the leagues! In the old Big XII the refs were bought but here is probably both inept and corrupt to the core!!

Was that former BAMA QB David Smith's crew doing the Ole Miss game?

Yes

True. Also true is it should’ve been defensive pass interference.

That wasn't as bad as the dozen holding calls against OM. Plus they wouldn't give the jersey number or show replay on TV. Ref would just say "holding Ole Miss".

The irony is that ruling it incomplete would have helped us as we could have run more clock before scoring.

The commentators thought it was going to be overturned and I initially thought the same thing. I think the key to understanding the call is that it was initially ruled a TD. The review can only overturn a call if there is indisputable evidence that it was wrong. Determining whether Thomas had control of the ball or not was strictly a judgement call, with no definitive proof one way or another, so the replay official probably felt he couldn't overturn the initial call. If the pass had been ruled incomplete initially, I think that call would have stood as well...for exactly the same reason.

You’re thinking of when Alabama got screwed against Penn State. Preston Gothard caught a TD but was ruled out of bounds.

RG3 did, and he seemed personally offended that it didn't.
I didn't think it was bad. He's kinda holding the ball at a funny angle, but it was in the same place when he hit the ground out of bounds as it was when his left foot was in.

The refs were trying to help LSU all game but LSU couldn’t stop tripping over their own cock.

I guess you forgot about the 5th down game in 1990 game between Mizzou and Colorado.

This is the longest way to write "not enough evidence to overturn"

If they hadn't given it to him, LSU maybe wins. Burn off enough clock Ole Miss never sees it. OM should've been happy.

In the end, we made it right with a win but we all know the real score was Ole Miss 55 - LSU 42.

In real time the ref didn't see the bobble. Replay clearly did. He didn't get possession until out of bounds. Easy overturn. But for some reason Birmingham decided to leave it. The on field ref told Lane that he didn't agree but it wasn't his call.

I'm not saying the poster was right, just that they used was too many words to express the point

The other absolutely blatantly bad call was the “hold” on Prieskorn (sp?). He pummeled that DB and in no way was it a hold. Even RG3 said “he is guilty of blocking to well”.
