That's the difference between us and them. We'd burning up the phone lines trying to get Gus fired for failing to run the clock out, or worse yet, letting Bo Nix get into field goal range. I already had an email drafted to Allen Greene before we kicked that field goal!

Ok, then Briles did. Or whomever called the defense and let Nix carve you up on that last drive.

He didn't get your team into a position that a questionable call mattered.

The problem I have is the word "immediate" is so subjective. It was only like 2 seconds after the whistle that Foucha gained possession. What defines immediate?


Sure, but you also have to take into account did any of the whistles cause any other players to stop going for the ball before there was a recovery? I think a reasonable answer there is yes, which means there can't be a clear recovery just because one player decided to keep going past the whistle.

Is it a shitty situation? Absolutely. The refs shouldn't have blown the whistle on the field. The replay officials should have made the call that there was a fumble and no clear recovery (due to the whistles stopping play). It would have been Auburn's ball at the spot, with clock starting on the whistle.

I have no idea on whether or not Arky could have actually declined the intentional grounding. I don't know what penalties can and can't be declined.

Arkansas fans:
-Your coach chased points by going for 2.
-He had Malik Hornsby in the game at the GL for two consecutive plays.
- He didn’t keep his defense focused during the last drive
- He got bent over and used by the refs


He lost you the ball game.

Tough pill to swallow but the truth is there in black and white.

The problem is with HOW the games are being called and HOW the replay review is set up.

Officials should let every play go to its full conclusion. Do not blow the whistle until the ball is in the end zone, out of bounds, or possessed by a player on the ground.

THEN go to replay to see where anything was missed.

But DO NOT go to replay to find penalties that were missed. In the Auburn vs Kentucky game, they went to replay to find out of our DB stepped out of bounds and “found” a targeting penalty on our starting DE and the TD was overturned and our player was kicked out of the game.

How do you review a penalty that was not called in the first place?

And

How does that play fit the narrative of “The SEC protects the big 6!”??

They CAN do that for targeting. Not for anything else, but they can for targeting.

Happened to a Bama player in the Ole Miss-Alabama game, if memory serves me correctly.

idgaf if AR gets the win, only the refs & replay booth geeks get spanked. I suspect we'll be hard pressed to see such a bad call all year.

Really did Ark a favor by allowing them to have 7 seconds left on the clock.


Not really.

If you place the ball where it was fumbled to it moves it back 5 yards and moves it to kicking from closer to the hash mark.

Also, by calling it grounding instead of a backward pass there was a 10 second run off of the clock.

Arkansas still had a time-out and could have had 10 more seconds on the clock without the bogus intentional grounding call.

Not only did they take the chance of recovering it away but also took 10 seconds away from Arkansas next possession.

That is the other mistake the replay official made.

By incorrectly ruling that the call stands....instead of a fumble that wasn’t recovered due to an inadvertent whistle....they penalized Arkansas by taking time off the clock.

The result was Arkansas had time for 1 play. Instead of 3 making it impossible to get in range of a fg attempt.

People keep overlooking that the 10 second runnoff actually penalized Arkansas.
