Take off your Gump Goggles.

If you don't think that was a hold on Lewis Neal, you're past the point of being saved.

2017 CFP

Clemson 99 plays 0 penalties. So much for the more important calls at more important times bullshite

There is literally no way that you can say that was 100 percent a hold. I would've been pissed if that would've been called. Because it wasn't a hold.

So we got this multi-officials grand conspiracy, I'm sure under the SECs direction...right?

No one can use pretzel logic and circular arguments like an L8U fan.

I don't see a hold any one of those. Arm around is not a hold.

First, I agree there were holds that Bama got away with on the Hurts run for a TD. Just as there are on almost every play. Usually, DLmen who felt it affected the play at such a pivotal moment would be expressing their displeasure with the refs, which they do not... so, I dont know. It happens for both sides every game day.

That said, Bama has missed some big calls in conference as well. Likely none bigger the GoTC Pt1

William's in control of ball feet from ground; Reid one hand on William's waist and one on William's wrist and ball

Williams near impact with ground; still in possession; Reid hand placement no change

Williams down; appearance of dual possesion; ruled INT.
Replay could not overturn


Huge play in a a defensive struggle. Easily could have gone Bama's way outright or through rule interpretation. Instead, LSU took over and the rest is history.

Bad call for Bama and good call for LSU. Either way it didn't take away from a great game. Schit happens. Sometimes you just have to roll with it. But, to say Bama gets all the big calls is ridiculous and only looking at it through an anti-bama lens.

Going back and honestly watching games from both sides opens you up to see it generally goes both ways. We, fans, just imprint the moments that generate the more significant emotional reaction, which shapes our reality.
