All game long and every damn play. Only way they could win.

Well, played.
I'm not one to blame officiating. I thought the PI calls on us last year against LSU shouldn't have been called but I would have never argued they couldn't have been called.
IMO it's not a full blown conspiracy theory, etc...but the SEC has learned from the 90's and early 2000's that canabalizing your conference isn't good for the bottom line.
Allowing the LSU OL to hold was the easiest and simplest way to neutralize Auburn's one threat to LSU's offensive scheme. It worked. Every small hold the grabbed another 1st down was a brick in the wall of Auburn's fate. Auburn has nobody to blame but ourselves. If we had taken care of business against UF then their would have been zero reason for LSU to need an advantage like this in our game since we both would have been undefeated and the winner still had the bama game looming.
Auburn has benefitted from the SEC officiating curve in the past and I look forward to being on the right side of it at some point in the future.

Im not saying Auburn deserved to win, their offense did very little to do so. But some of these calls being missed was just ridiculous when everyone saw it. I know ppl say you could probably find a hold every play, but damn some of these were very obvious and in the open for all to spot.

Just because they have a guy by the neck and are dragging him to the ground doesnt mean its against the rules

As many times as LSU has bitched about holding, only to be told that they’re just sore losers...I don’t care if Brown was dragging 2 OL on his shoelaces every single play. If it wasn’t called, then suck it losers.

No "potentially" about it. That ball was a good half yard behind the QB when it bounced. I can't remember who, if anyone, picked up the ball though.

The refs did Fk the Saints out of a Super Bowl. Not at all similar to LSU strangling Aubie's d-line.

LSU gets away with holding more than any team I’ve ever seen.
Posted on 10/29/19 at 7:38 am to Lou Pai
Yep they had just as many....And 2 of those weren't holding anyways

It's really not true. It's legal to hold inside the shoulders. It's illegal outside and will get called more times than not when it is on the edge or clearly contributed to the success of the play. They went into that game intending to swallow the flags against our DL. Such is life, Auburn can only blame Auburn.

Wow, that's pretty egregious. I didn't watch the game because I was at a Halloween party, but that's a big deal in a 3 point game. Now I understand why Auburn fans are so upset.
LSU fans are always the first and loudest ones to complain about officiating, so it's pretty funny to see their reactions this time.

Except it won’t get called more time than not.
There are points in that video where holding happens for less than a second. That’s not going to get called. Even on the outside.

those are only a few of the examples. LSU held all day long.

I generally find conspiracies cringeworthy and misguided, but an objective observer watching that game would conclude that the officials must have had a plan to help LSU by allowing them to hold and therefore neutralizing AU’s strongest asset. The motive isn’t that complicated but man that’s tough to watch.

Holding can pretty much be called every play.
Big game against Florida and you’re dissing LSU.
Auburn did the same thing.
At least when we played played Florida they kept their trash talking game related.
Another reason we have respect for Florida. They played clean. They played like soldiers and didn’t cry like little bitches after the game.
