Doesn't matter. the CFP committee realized it was all BS and kept LSU in the top 10. that tells you everything you need to know

I’ve had some fun but in all seriousness the local sports radio here in BR have done a good job of explaining why the calls were correct according to rules. Part of the problem is coaches and in particular fans don’t know the rules as well as the officials obviously. The sec refs would do themselves a huge favor by explaining the rules like they do in the NFL when they make a call. For instance give what was seen in say the Devin White targeting call when you make the announcement instead of just saying call upheld he is ejected.

So when the refs didn’t whistle Mond down with the knee was that correct ? Because the review allowed aTm with the ball with zero time running off. Had the call been made in real time correctly then the clock would have run with recievers running down field. No way aTm has time to tie it after that. So, correcting a MISSED call cost LSU. I believe they should not have reversed it and let the original play stand. It was not evident that Mond had the ball when the knee touched.



There was a 10 second run-off after they call was changed...

That’s not the rule man. He took two steps while trying to secure the ball which he never clearly did. In live time the play was bang bang. Slowing it down only hurts the call because it appears he held the ball longer than he actually did.

It's true, you get the smaller number (meaningless outside of CFP) and the harder bowl game.

Bowl Clout doesn't exist anymore post playoff.

What does matter is head to head, and conference standings though.

Yeah I was actually ok with this being ruled incomplete at the time. The Mond knee/interception play? That was a call that could have gone either way. The worst call IMO was the PI in overtime that gave A&M another chance for the winning score. It was LSU's misfortune that a couple of game winning plays just so happened to have some bang/bang elements to them and we didn't get the favorable calls on them.

Still had a million chances to win that game and blew them. Giving up 4th and 18 was fricking sickening. Dropped punt by Giles. Rare missed FG by Tracy. And an inability to stop A&M throwing to that tall bastard all overtime.

I think LSU demonstrated they were the overall better team but I also think A&M's win wasn't marred by terrible officiating. It was just a really weird game and the breaks all went to A&M when it mattered. That's just football sometimes. Deep down, A&M fans know they were damn fortunate to come away with that win but I think LSU fans have gone overboard trying to downplay the legitimacy of the win by putting it all on bad officiating.

he didn't even complete his first step when the dbs helmet hits his hands. His left foot goes down simultaneously with the ball hitting his hands, it's not a step with possession. He didn't even finish turning around before the lsu player got there. If you read the tiger rant threads about this it's the consensus that he ran 30 yards and did a cartwheel before the ball came out. Why do you guys have to be like this? The call on the field was incomplete which is perfectly understandable if you watch the play at speed and don't look at still. it was not indisputable that he had full control of the ball when it was knocked away. That's it. No conspiracy. You have made yourselves a national joke with this victim complex.

Look man, I'm ok with the call being incomplete because it was a bang/bang, 50/50 type call, but all of this is wrong. He got two feet down and had his body and head turned up field heading for the endzone before contact. The ball was not being juggled and he was in the latter stages of moving the ball from where it was caught to being tucked. That being said, it all happened VERY quickly.

Why do YOU have to be like this? No one is arguing that that call was a conspiracy. Bad calls can just be bad calls. Also, to argue that it's simply delusional LSU fans taking issue with this call is being willfully dishonest. Like I said, I think the call could have gone either way, it was damn close, but your portrayal is about as delusional as the strawman description of LSU fans you made in your post.

There's some truth to this. If Hubert Owens had said that Stidham was called for intentional grounding because the out-of-the-pocket provision doesn't apply on a flea flicker, then Nessler, Danielson, and countless Auburn posters wouldn't have made fools out of themselves.
