  1. I get coaches trying to work the Refs. I’ve been around football for four decades and some change now and understand why they do it and it works at times. But Kirby is beyond ridiculous. I think in the Kentucky game we got flagged for a sideline warning, but this clown practically lives on the white part of the sideline and almost on the field running up and down at the same time and never gets flagged or even a warning flag. It’s pathetic. If I were a coach and my team got a penalty that actually counted for sideline interference, I’d pull up video footage of Kirby and his antics and make it part of my press conference and ask why my team and coaches are held to one standard all while the league turns a blind eye to Kirby and his antics just because he’s Kirby.
  2. Check out how close Kirby is to the end of the play here. I hate to see people get hurt, but if this ass clown ever does…………
  3. Gosh dammit. Fucking Sooner calling our game. But Taylor McGregor is nice eye candy on the sidelines.
  4. So we might get a third round at Jerryworld with a chance of it being kind of like a home game?
  5. That’s interesting because I never thought of the NCAA angle. Going back to the 70’s, the NCAA was always up the rears of the SWC or to some extent Big 8 schools (primarily OU) with investigations.
  6. He almost interfeared on a play on their sideline last night. It’s fricken ridiculous. It’s almost to the point I wish he’d get trucked by even one his players and finally the SEC and the Refs would have to address it. Especially if he had to leave the stadium for treatment.
  7. I’ll add to this. Some of the Old South SEC blue bloods hate the fact the SEC is not the Louisiana to South Carolina conference they grew up with. The same conference that had teams like Bama, UGA, and Florida that rarely played Texas before the conference expansion and realignments craze began 30 years ago. The SEC was a closed club to them and they lived in their echo chamber for years getting their teams in the premier bowl games without having to play challenging non conference opponents. I think they were OK with aggy joining the club because culturally they kind of fit in with them. I don’t think they’ve ever considered MIzzou a compliment to the their conference just like they still felt like they should’ve been a Big 10 school when they were in the Rig 12. And the reaction to Texas and OU joining to club was kind of lukewarm at best. This all translates to the some of the fuckery we’ve seen with Refs. I’d bet you could pull the places of birth and current residences of the Ref crews the SEC utilizes and they are going to be heavy with Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama (not the schools but the states) connections. They are from generations for families who lived SEC football and they resent the new boys in town. Especially the one who has the resources both in money and a natural recruiting base to be top tier from day one and for the balance of the life of the SEC for how many more years it lives as a conference from this point forward.
  8. And the other commentators are looking at him like he’s a fool. Even Mullens who is kind one of our haters himself.
  9. Good fricken grief. Watching the BJ’s Norte Dame is now getting on the pre selection show on ESPN 2. Norte Dame almost always gets trucked in the post season whether it’s a bowl or playoff.
  10. Nope. We the extended coaching staff on Surly saw it.
  11. I’ll agree with some of this. I think there are some SEC Refs who are from the core SEC states who resent the conference expansion. I will say one positive is most crews don’t conference for five minutes after even a cut and dry penalty to discuss it like the RIG 12 Refs. And in most cases they get booth reviews done fairly quickly too which take forever in the Rig.
  12. Only with Refs from Conference USA or the Lone Star Conference.
  13. I will not blame this all on the Refs. But it is interesting that the holding penalties that seemed to dog us the first half almost completely disappeared in the second half after Sark made that comment at half.
