Why wouldn't the end zone play be either down in the end zone or grounding, a safety either way?

Boy are you in for a rude awakening.

This is our conference, you don't decide shite here. The SEC office is in Birmingham for a reason.

At minimum it was intentional ground in the end zone. It was no where near roughing the passer.

I have such a low bar for B12 refs, that nothing surprises me. The B12 ref's main focus is the have their shirt's altered to show off their guns.

He would be on my short list of replacements for Saban. Love his offense and he seems to be much more mature and seasoned in the HC role now.

This is one of the only outcomes that would be wrong.

Could have been called a safety before Bryce was rolled over, but the whistle didn't blow and nobody asked to review the spot, so it wasn't.

So he wasn't viewed as being down, until after he threw the ball. And in that context, the call they made was correct.

A QB can throw the ball at any point before going down, it's not illegal. And if it's deflected, then it's automatically not intentional grounding for the most part. The ball deflected off a Texas players helmet, so it was the correct call.

I can only guess that you think otherwise because you aren't use to seeing a QB do what Bryce did. And that's because what he did was actually pretty stupid.

Lol. Talk about irrelevant. Texas is back bc they have a good play caller who overcame addiction? Uhm ok. Doesn’t change they have the worst group of boosters in the entire country who have their fingerprints all over the program. Did you think it was strange that Tom Herman was a very successful OC and a very successful head coach at Houston who took down numerous teams with more talent (Oklahoma, Louisville, FSU) and didn’t have success at Texas??

They have the worst administration in the country and it ain’t even close. They won’t be good under Sarkisian.

Really? Your argument is that Texas boosters suck because a coach that was good at one school wasn't good at Texas?

Tom Herman is a decent coach who also had some luck in Houston. His downfall is that he is a complete shite human being and doesn't have the EQ to run a locker room filled with huge egos.

One high school coach in Texas described him as "Texas A&M's best recruiter" because he was so fricking weird and offputting.

Is Texas back? Who knows? But your take re: Herman is completely asinine.

I think 50 years and 1 national title says it all buddy. It’s asinine to act like what I’m saying is insane. Texas is widely known to have shitty entitled boosters who want their fingerprints all over the program, I didn’t just make it up.

Texas is the wealthiest and arguably the most arrogant and entitled program in college sports and it’s absolutely hysterical to watch it become a freak show that never wins anymore. The program is now celebrating losses to Alabama like it’s back.

Bama had so many penalties and the odd thing is the refs still let them get away with too much. A blatant face mask on a RB inside the 10. PI on our TE in the end zone. Both obvious - no calls.
you forgot the obvious hold on UT's defensive end on Bryce Young's big scramble at the end...

No, you simply read it on internet message boards and it became fact in your mind.

Did Georgia have the same issue before last year? Because they went 40 years between titles, while Texas went 35 years between titles.

You're just parroting an unfounded low-hanging fruit take that has no backing. "Widely known" my arse. Maybe to message board geniuses such as yourself.

The reason for Texas' lack of titles is because hiring coaches is a crap shoot, and you gotta get lucky some time. In the 80s, 90s we hired from our good ol' boy network and they were mediocre coaches.

You should know this as a Florida fan, you were literally not relevant before Spurrier. Then you make a great hire in Urban. Too bad you had to go slumming for Sun Belt Billy this time.

Lol too bad we’ve had 3 titles in a span of 12 years in the modern era. After doing nothing for 100 years of football we’ve literally accomplished more from 1996-2008 than Texas has in its entire history. Y’all have 1 in the last 50. Now that is funny. Without Vince Young you guys are literally nothing in the last 50+ years.

Georgia high school talent didn’t explode until the late 90s. It didn’t have near the recruiting advantages that Texas has had for the last 40+ years. On top of that, they are in the most competitive conference in football where literally all of its rivals in said conference can go to Georgia high school recruits and say “We win national titles, come play for us”

How many rivals to Texas can say that exact same thing??? Oklahoma hasn’t won a national title in 20 years. The Big12 hasn’t even made a championship game in over a decade. Texas has 0 competition and they have for YEARS. It’s literally the same story different chapter. You guys have a shite, entitled administration. End of story. Go back to high school football. Your program is irrelevant even despite literally having more money than everyone lol

UGA has also been competitive in the sport the last 20+ years. They have the 4th highest win percentage in the country and have actually been consistently good. Outside of 04-05, and 08-09 Texas has been an utter joke the last 3 decades lol

Now you're getting it! Was Florida's admin entitled for that 100 years? Isn't Florida a hotbed for recruits? Where the frick were you for 100 years? Then you got lucky and found a couple winner in Spurrier and Meyer. Congrats.

Is it that Texas football recruits are overrated? Or is it that they're so good but Texas failed to use them to win titles? Pick one, dumbass.

Additionally, 80s-90s SWC cheating culture killed any chance a dominant force coming out of it. SMU literally got death penalty. A&M was banned from being on TV in 1994. SWC devolved into sick conference that was not built to produce winners.

And that somehow doesn't apply to the state Texas? Was there a magical force-field that prevented the SEC from doing the same in Texas, before Aggie turned it off? SEC has always recruited Texas well.

I get it, you hate Texas because we're a blueblood and you aren't. You're new money and want to punch down on someone, and it's hard to find a target in your own conference who won't straight laugh in your face. Well, I'll be your huckleberry.

Lollol. Blue blood?!! Dude this is 2022 not 1980. y’all have ONE title in 50 years. You aren’t a fricking blue blood anymore haha. Wtf. You guys literally haven’t been CONSISTENTLY relevant since they allowed black people to play. 04-05, and 08-09 and that is literally all you’ve got going on the last 50 years. 160 lb Offensive linemen aren’t the norm anymore and neither is the wishbone lol. So congrats on being great pre-segregation?

That’s like me saying Florida is still great today bc what we did a decade ago. Lol. The delusion knows no bounds. You have sucked arse in the modern day of college football. You are not a blue blood bc you won games when the forward pass was frowned upon. You’ve done literally nothing in FIFTY YEARS. How in the frick does that make you a blue blood?! Literally NO PROGRAM has done less with more than the Texas Longhorns.

Lol. I was cheering for Texas to beat Bama. You are clueless. No one gives a solitary frick about your program that does nothing year in and year out. Of course y’all couldn’t finish the deal, as usual. Be “my huckleberry” lol leave it to the Texas fan to have some retarded one liner instead of actually backing anything up. Classic

If the refs wanted bama to win then why did they miss the holding call that your tight end held on 14 branch at the goal line on your only TD. There were many missed calls on BOTH teams. Thats because most refs nowadays are garbage so don't come in here all pumped up think Texas is great. You guys played over your head and we were flat an we still won. Thats what happens when these kids believe all the hype from the talking heads and don't take teams serious even crappy teams like Texas can sneak up on you.
