You have an active thread on your team forum with a participant urging its members to call the SEC office and complain about officiating after a rent-a-win.


I'm pretty sure the whole point of the thread was to point out that the referee for our game Saturday is a former Alabama player.
There was also a thread with a few gifs of very blatant holding calls on Chattanooga that weren't called.

Tiger fans, obviously upset over this, made a thread about it to inform other tiger fans of what he had found.

I honestly think that a lot of the LSU ref bitching stems from the Patrick Peterson int call. Certainly, there would still be bitching even if that call had gone LSUs way, but I think that call is the origin of the mistrust.

It was an obvious interception that was called back. We have been pretty pissed since and we started noticing that Bama didn't get called for holding alot against us.

SEC officials cheated and held LSU's offense to less than 130 yards last year.

If it weren't for blatant cheating from the SEC offices, Fournette would have ran for over 500 on Alabama
Well Hurts' touchdown would have been called back with the triple holding actually being called, but y'all would've still won, probably 6-0

Still a dumb reason to start a thread.

How many holds was LSU called for in comparison?

For reference, Bama's opponents had 2 holding penalties called against them all year last year. Two. Against one of the best front sevens in college football history.

Just because you people draw circles on MS Paint doesn't mean anything.

Not a single one of those circles is a hold.

Still pictures don't prove shite. At full speed, no one is going to call that shite.

The fact the an Alabama fan doesn't know what a hold looks like when he has three in front of him.
I rest my case.

Here's the full speed video from both angles. Not a single one is a hold. I played OL in college. I know plenty about holding.

Watched the video 3 times and it's fricking obvious holding.

I think it happens with any team(s) that win a lot of games. I remember people saying the refs & such were in USC pockets when USC was on their run.


I agree. I don't think it's something the refs are conscious of when they do it but I do think it happens. They get the idea that "these are NFL future players. They don't need to hold" so even though they see that "hold", they don't always call it unless it is just completely blatant. On the other hand, they would call it against another team because they are thinking "this line may need to hold because they are not NFL type players". It's all subconscious, but it happens.

Not even close to holds. And let's not act like the refs didn't try to keep LSU in the game with a phantom arse false start when Bama was at the 1, ready to go up 14-0.

You guys latch onto any excuse you can find.

The funniest one is the block on Neal by Bo Scarbrough. That was a shitty attempt of a block, and instead of shedding the block, Neal throws up a faux rip motion and pretty much makes no attempt to make a play. What a sissy.

It's not obvious holding. Not one of them.
