Say you have a 1 point lead with 12 minutes left and the other team has zero time outs, if the clock was running before a penalty, the clock starts back at 25 even after a penalty, so you could technically have movement in the offensive line at 5 seconds of each play clock and you could run the clock out with 12 minutes left, because after you get to the 5 then the 2 1/2 the one yard line the half yard line the inch line the fraction of an inch line, you run 25 seconds ( well 23 ) and have illegal motion.

How he thought that was the rule is beyond me. Teams would have been doing this for years

He really is the worst. Always heard he flies a clemson flag at his house.

Agreed...during the game I mentioned to my son that I didn't understand why the clock was running. And while it's unlikely it would've changed the outcome, Arkansas should've had the chance. A lot of unlikely things have happened in the SEC the past couple of years...

It was 4th down. Alabama could have tried to convert, but Arkansas would have had a chance.
I'm pretty sure that's the case anyways.

Would've been 4th & 7 and we would have gotten the ball back with 20-30 seconds left. I would have to look at the clock.

I'm trying to understand why this man is still a head referee. Anyone?
That is the proper take on this
he is not held accountable - many referees in the South deserve a shot at moving up, and he needs to be fired

What rule states the clock should have started on the snap? The rule clearly states that the clock should have started on the referee's signal since this was to complete a penalty. Now the ref could have declared this "unfair clock tactics" and started it on the snap, but he didn't probably because he didn't known that he could or he didn't feel the Bama lineman was trying to use the clock unfairly. He followed the rule as it was written in the rule book at least as I read it.

You should justdo 60 false starts in a row when you have the lead under 8 minutes so you can win and run out the clock.
