They can’t have any chance for Miami to have a loss before that ND game

The first one was pretty close….the second one was the right call. Probably the right call on the first one but it was very close.

And the ACC refs will make sure Miami doesn't lose to ND next week. If I were ND or any team that plays Miami in the CFP, I would refuse to play them if they're going to bring ACC officials.

This is fricking bull shite.

If Miami was the kicking team there is ZERO chance the refs would've thrown those flags.

2nd attempt was clear as day

Don't be too sure. ND wins a close one, they both get in.

Probably true

Honestly if it helps knock ND out of the playoffs that’s fine lol..

First could have been let go.



But it was close enough to be used to protect Miami from being upset.



Much like the "holding" on the first Hail Mary attempt by FSU

This is right. First one was razor margin, second one was clear-cut.

It sucks but the calls were correct. You can be damn sure the refs weren’t going to give any leeway to UNC.

While that’s probably true, it doesn’t mean the call wasn’t correct.

But I get the frustration. I’m an LSU fan who’s watched Bama games my whole life

I'll actually be pulling for ND.

Miami has been allowed to get away with so much shite during the offseason and during this season. The media has been massaging their balls more than any other team this year, and it'd be nice to see them have to eat shite.

The Mensah situation was fricking bull shite, but the media ignored it and crucified SEC teams for much less egregious tampering.

In that situation it ought to matter but it doesn’t. It’s a stretch to pretend that the guy offside was in any way going to be a factor or even a distraction….i guess the thinking is it pulls the eyes away from where the ball is heading but that’s a stretch. It was very close any way you slice it.
