re: SEC officials release statement on LSU tears, “all calls were 100%correct”

Once more- this is so rich coming from aggy. There is not another fan base in the last century that has complained and cried about referees or conspiracies against their program more than aggy. Blaming officials for their losses (and trust me, there are a LOT of losses...) is part of their DNA, like homoerotic traditions and their trademarked success-by-proxy philosophy (Bama won so we won...).

Don’t ever change aggy.

You honestly expected them to admit to the nation the gave A&M the game with bad calls?

Which calls were bad, exactly?

It's like he doesnt follow the quality journalism from NOLA.com

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.

IMO, it was one of those calls where the call on the field was going to stand whatever it was. Unfortunately for LSU, the call on the field was an incomplete pass. The overturned INT was really close. To me, it was hard to tell if he had secured possession with his knee on the ground or not. Again a call that could have gone either way but not "wrong" under the rules. The most unfortunate outcome on that play for LSU was, regardless of the 10 second runoff, had that play been whistled dead, the clock keeps running and A&M is scrambling back to the line trying to get a play called instead of having essentially a 5 min timeout and their players ready to snap the ball at the whistle. The only call, IMO, that was flat out wrong was the PI on Greedy, and I hate that it was that call that ended up deciding the game for all intents and purposes. After a 7 OT game where both teams are grinding like that, you just don't want a controversial ticky tacky judgment call that probably shouldn't have been called to decide the game.

So every questionable call went in favor of one team.

Interesting. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that before in a game or in life. I thought The law of averages was a law.

What calls were controversial, exactly?

Whether or not they were they were right or wrong call doesn't preclude them from being "controversial." There were several calls that were 50/50 judgment calls made in the 4th quarter and OT. That is always going to spark controversy when a game is decided by 2 points in 7 OTs. There's no need to get defensive. Y'all won arguably the most competitive game of the season in this conference. But to act like there was absolutely no controversy and none warranted is pretty silly.

They weren't all questionable. Your teams fanbase is just extra whiney about it. Whining more doesnt make something more questionable.

If LSU was more disciplined and not so soft they probably win that game. They have nobody to blame but themselves

do you ever provide anything of substance to any thread or are you simply not bright enough to contribute anything other than half-witted trolls? We have a 7 OT game that ended a 74-72 and your takeaway from a game like that is one team was soft and the other wasn't. Surely you can't be that dumb, but you tell me.

And they were all made correctly, by all objective accounts. So where's the controversy?

What about Mond's knee being down on the INT?
