Yeah. I think Ron McKelvey used several names.

Yes because conspiracy theories are dumb.
Look, here's the deal, there are 3 things that are possible from the 2015 OSU-Texas game:
- T. Boone paid off the refs to favor OSU (lol absurd)
- The Big 12 refs wanted OSU to win because it's somehow better for the Big 12...?....even though this was a game in late September and there were 8 games left on the conference schedule for both teams... and OSU was third-highest ranked Big 12 team at the time. Both TCU and OU were also undefeated. TCU was ranked in the top 5 and OU was like 15th.
- College refs suck and often screw up calls at crucial moments
If you guys are gonna ride or die on #1 and #2 then ok. Having watched countless college football games in my life over 30+ years, I think I'll stick with #3.
I'll leave it alone now.
I think a lot of this complaining is just FOS. But Baylor 1992 and OSU 2015 the fix was in for one reason or another. In 92 they wanted Teaff to go out with a win. Maybe the refs in 2015 just hated Charlie Strong. Maybe Detering hated Texas. Maybe they were getting paid by gamblers. But those two games were off the charts bad. Nothing to do with incompetence.
And if you don't think gamblers sometimes have their hands in things, that's like saying there were no bag men.

You could actually never see the ball itself in the review. IJS.
The review on TV was perfect. The back knee goes down an instant before Jamison strips it. Jamison was half a second slow with his strip.

This was about 4-5 years ago when I heard that, may have changed. They used to be notoriously biased towards the top teams.
They still are. My wife went to UGA so I watch a lot of SEC games too.

everyone forgets how bad it was because we fired our coach anyway and we could have won the game if not for our RB fumbling at the one on first down trying to reach the ball across the goal line.
so yeah Fuck TCU too.So is this really just a Big 12 problem or did it happen in the SWC also? Do refs not suck in the SEC? I don't really watch SEC games so I don't know.
SEC refs generally favor the higher ranked team. And they let all kinds of stuff go on after the whistle. Even Miami of the 90s would get flags for things they get away with.

We currently have the 109th ranked rush defense. As a lot of you have pointed out, stopping the run is all about getting hats to the ball and getting off of blocks early. I hate these damn coaches that just fall in love with window dressing. I'll never be convinced otherwise that if PK just threw out every defensive alignment outside of "Base, 3rd & Long, and Goal line" packages and just focused essentially 90% of the defensive practice on fundamentals such as proper tackling, angle of pursuit, and getting off of blocks. This defense would improve from 109th to at least some where in the 60's (which would've been good enough to win Saturday)
Coaches in the modern era seem to lack awareness. It's all about forcing what they want to run vs what to run with what you have. Adjust and set up the guys you have to be successful, don't try and run a system that needs Georgia's players to be successful.
Remember what a difference Greg Robinson made in 2 games after we got rid of Manny Diaz and his exotic schemes?

Tackling has changed a lot over the last ten years. Nobody is learning to tackle like the 80's, 90's, or 2000's anymore. Hitting drills have pretty much gone out the door too. Football has changed since the CTE issue became public. It has nothing to do with kids being softer or anything like that. The game is in the process of evolving and not everyone has figured out how to address tackling in this new era.
As @jimmyjazz pointed out, everyone is recruiting from the same talent pool but only a few are excelling defensively. This isn't a talent pool problem it's a coaching problem.
Alabama missed a bunch of tackles vs. A&M. Georgia tackles well. Not so sure anyone else is this year. Some are worse than others.

What about the Jamison strip? The fucking announcers kept saying that you had to give it to the offense because of his effort to get down there.
His knee did get down. In slow mo it was clear the strip was just after the one knee went down. I thought it was a fumble live, but it wasn't.

Are we playing count the holds?
Just multiply OU offensive plays by 1.5 and save yourself some time.

Ok walt. They got them wrong. And holding is illegal. Hands to the face is illegal. Facemasks are illegal. False start is illegal. Delay of game is illegal. Illegal touching is illegal. Opi is illegal.
And they didnt just ignore holding on pass plays but on runs as well.
You must be an official or related to one. Everything you wrote was wrong.The two passes by OU were not laterals. The QB throw was not a fumble as his arm was going forward. The TD, yes the guy got his foot down by a quarter inch. The muffed punt did go off the UT player's helmet. The strip after the long OU run was after his knee was down. The UT completion was with a foot a quarter inch out of bounds. Every one of these critical plays were real close and all went against UT and all were called right after replay.
I believe they did pick up a targeting on UT (although that might have been another game).
As for holding, we know how the Big 12 calls that or doesn't. I hate the way they do it, but we all know they won't call those. In the SEC, they don't call late hits and let lots of dirty play go on in the pile. Just watch an Alabama game closely-they are thugs like Miami in the 90s. The Big 12 refs are consistent with holding. They let O linemen get away with it unless it is really flagrant.
The only thing they blew was that 1Q pass where the receiver went out of bounds. That was a really critical call and they did blow that one. But this was nothing like some other games including that Okie St. ripoff where call after call is wrong and goes against us.

This is also part of the problem, the ending of plays with a whistle needlessly.Yeah, but that happens all the time, not just in the Big 12.

This was absolutely NOTHING like the Okie St. fix when Charlie was coaching.

They were 0/3 on reviewing crucial momentum-changing plays that could have gone against OU. In an era where they review every little thing. It's just hard to believe they wouldn't have reviewed really close/obvious fumbles if it was the other way.
Here's the deal. There were a half dozen close plays. And other than the receiver stepping out of bounds, they got all of them right. They just all went against us. And we know the Big 12 refs almost never call holding on pass plays. OU just takes better advantage of that than anybody else in the conference. They don't call it much period.
Stop whining. Y'all sound like aggys.

Kirk Bowels moved aggy up from NR to 12.
It’s hard to explain Bamas dropped balls, penalties and generally shitty play. It’s not hard to explain the shitty play calling or the young QB.
But aggy is not the 12th best team, they definitely punched way above their weight and had a really good game by their mediocre QB.
That's Bama this year. They look like a bigger faster Charlie Strong team. They should not have been unanimous #1.

What happened to Rojo yesterday? I mean it wasn’t like he was used sparingly in the first five games and all the sudden not one carry.
Sark likes to stick with one ball carrier until he wears them down and gets them injured. Which happens unless you have a once in a generation player like Earl.

for a little perspective: Georgia Tech 222 Cumberland 0.
"....24 — Total touchdowns by Georgia Tech that took one or zero plays. Tech had seven defensive touchdowns, six kick-return touchdowns, and 11 touchdowns from one-play drives on offense.
10 — Of the 28 offensive plays run by Georgia Tech that did not go for touchdowns.
2 — Georgia Tech drives that took three plays to score. Tech had zero drives of four plays or more.
MORE HISTORY: College football teams with the most national championships
0 — Fourth downs faced by Georgia Tech.
0 — First downs made in the game, by either team. Cumberland either punted or turned the ball over on every set of downs it had, while Georgia Tech scored a touchdown on every set it had.
0 — Georgia Tech plays that went for negative yards.
63 — Points scored by Georgia Tech in both the first and second quarter.
9 — times Georgia Tech has scored 63 or more points in a game in the 121 games they’ve played since 2010. That’s 7.4 percent.
23 — Successful extra point attempts in a row by Georgia Tech during the first three quarters. Jim Preas hit 18 in the first half, but was replaced by Tommy Spence, who converted five in a row before missing back-to-back tries and getting replaced. Strupper made one in the fourth quarter, and then Bill Fincher hit six more in the fourth, giving Georgia Tech a 30-for-32 mark on the day.
0 — Passes attempted by Georgia Tech.
4.5 — Points scored per Georgia Tech offensive play. The offense accounted for 126 of the 222 points in the game on just 28 plays."

Today totally sucked ass, but for several reasons this is far from the most hopeless I’ve felt about UT football.
Side note: Route 66 was by far the worst game I’ve ever attended. Not only was that the most ridiculous UT attempt at a football performance I’ve ever seen, it was also hot as shit that day and we stayed until the eyes. I was in school at the time and I met a random chick at a party the night before. She gave me a nice blowjob before the game and then after the game she fucked me to cheer me up. She was hot and she was 18.....I took it for granted at the time, but as an old married man I look back and even the worst UT football day I’ve ever witnessed created some fond memories! UT will kick ass in football again, but I will never get to repeat the other activities of that day.I was there, I member. The game, not the beej. About 50 people left for the eyes.
There were more than 50 of us. Probably a couple thousand along with a couple thousand UCLA fans. It was a good day for our #4 QB after 3 got injured. Didn't he get a modeling contract after being seen?
We made a point to get seats in the shade on the west side. My wife would have passed out without that. She barely made it as it was. That was the worst in person or otherwise.

Big Blue coming in at #11 and already Bowl eligible.
1950 was the only other time Kentucky won their first 6 games. One good thing about that year-they beat OU in the Sugar Bowl ending OU's 31 game winning streak, which at the time was the longest post WWI winning streak in college football history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_NCAA_Division_I_football_winning_streaks

Jesus you would think today was the 2011 or 2012 ou game. Those were far worse.There were 5 in a row from 71-75, the first 3 by a combined score of 127-40 and that was with decent teams. Then there were 86 and 87, 12-47 and 9-44 with bad teams. Those were drinking games. Think 2 of us finished a bucket of margaritas during that 86 game.

I don’t agree with that statement. Other than New Mexico and UNLV every MWC has been competitive in football. I wouldn’t call that a lot of deadweight.
At times competitive, but usually there are 3 or 4 teams any given year that are just awful. Often Colorado St. or San Jose St. Wyoming has been bad a lot lately. Hawaii and Utah St. have their bad years. CSU has been in the top 10, but usually they are really bad.

I still don't get what MWC offers that AAC doesn't. Seems to me that the geographical divide as it currently is makes sense and their standing in the CFB hierarchy seem to be about equal. I still give AAC a slight edge even after losing the UH, Cincy, and UCF.
Looking at the TV schedule next week, future Big 12ers Cincinnati and UCF get ABC at noon and BYU-Baylor gets 3:30 ESPN. There are only 5 games that aren't at least ESPN3 or ESPN+ and 3 of those are MWC games. Doesn't sound like much of an attraction. One other is USM-UAB from CUSA and oddly, one is Auburn-Arkansas. Guess SEC needs the LHN for an SECN West.

That was an amazing game. It was just a totally dead crowd with 2 minutes to go in the first half. Then Vince got started.
