Big10 Sugar Bowl Refs

[Zeus 5949]

Pretty hilarious so far

[nineliveslost 2710]

yea, its pretty hilarious their receivers and QB lighting it up also. 

Dont do this 

[ousux 5586]

Washington is perfect, just like Okie Lite in '22. Don't smear the names of these respectable (if sight challenged) refs.

[Fondren & Main 6667]

Finally fucking called a penalty on these assholes.

6 huge penalties on us

finally one meaningless one on them

that they had to call

Just now, Zeus said:

That was helpful because we didn’t have to use the second timeout.

[mdmost 42860]

I’m sure it pained them to call that late hit against Washington

[chainsaw 9838]

Kevin Mar is from Nebraska. Any conference that would have Nebraska is suspect.

[Kel Varnsen 8430]

[StassneyHorn 6538]

Shut the fuck up

[Kel Varnsen 8430]

You first

[Zeus 5949]

The Penix pass way past the line of scrimmage was my favorite of the half. 

I hope they just call it strait the rest of the game, we will draw 4 holding calls. 

[RichUT 1791]

The illegal block call against Watts was a first for me, and I’ve been watching this sport for more than 30 years. It may not have been hugely consequential but the fact that it happened at all has to make you wonder.

Fairly new rule (only 1 or 2 years?). Not surprised you haven’t seen it called (not a shot at you). Seemed more like he got crumpled than went for the guy’s legs though.

Yeah they tried to say it’s a new thing

Taking out the legs of an OL

But in this situation, he didn’t take out the linemen’s legs he just bent down a little and hit him in the stomach instead of getting pancaked. 
 

Never would be called in a million times that exact contact and play happens. Totally made up out of thin air. 
 

It’s funny the back judge is out looking for illegal blocks on Texas when Washington is on offense. Not looking for holding lol 

[Knoxtnhorn 5929]

Seriously.  UW is one dimensional.  No excuse for this defense.

Sorry.  Wrong thread.

[bigcigar 1161]

Here’s the bullshit again

I’m tired of it. No penalties really for Texas and any ticky tack call for Washington. Fuck these assholes

[Zeus 5949]

Yeah can hit worthy twice out of bounds no biggie

[Fondren & Main 6667]

How sad being an aggy loser posting on our boards.  I’d love to deck you.

[Zeus 5949]

Block in the back not called but they are going to call the most chickenshit late hit ever??

Oh wait no flags??

What kind of clown show is this?

[Nivek 16857]

I hope they get SEC refs and get called for the 15 holds they committed before I lost count.

I still maintain that coaches should keep walk-ons to keep refs honest.

[mdmost 42860]

I hope people make voodoo dolls of them and stab those dolls repeatedly 

[sidis 9743]

The ref on our sideline was fucking blind and not capable of properly spotting a ball correctly. However, there was not a single penalty that Texas got that I disagreed with. They were all pretty obvious.

That said, on Washington’s last scoring drive for the FG, on first down, after losing two yards, they picked up a flag on what should have been a late hit unsportsmanlike for absolutely no fucking reason whatsoever. The guy absolutely decked Watts from behind after the play was over. It should have been 2nd and 27 up by 6. That was an absolute fuckjob and I’d really like to know what their justification for picking that flag up was.

Your team was watching from the couch, bitch. Fuck yourself. 

[Jshep34 2304]

Replay clearly showed he got hit square in the back. No question that should have been unsportsmanlike. Had to explain to my kid, it doesn't matter just like all sports refs are never held accountable (i.e. termination) it's part of the human element. But picking up that flag was completely inexcusable

[Speedtrucker 2063]

Ok so I can’t post my video here but how was it not illegal motion?








3 snapshots as they are down, they stand and start pointing and the TE goes in motion….

I’ve seen that before, worse. In the ‘99 TAMU (bonfire) game, Simms scrambled down the left sideline and ran out of bounds. Brian Gamble ran up and laid him out, head on, all out of bounds. The ref threw the flag for the PF, Slocum argued (reminded him that the Ags needed to win, because of the dead kids) and the official picked the flag up.

What’s bizarre is that the flag was for just a run of the mill block in the back. I’m cynical, so my theory is that that official told the others what he flagged, at which point they said, “nope. Couldn’t have been a block because the play was already over”. White hat then says “I guess that settles that then!”

* Obligatory disclaimer: The refs did not cost us the game, but that non-call was some fuckery (of the incompetent variety, not some conspiracy/fix).

Wasn't he the only one in motion at the time?

[Hammerin Hank 1224]

A buddy sent me this screenshot. Of course no call 

[Speedtrucker 2063]

So they all stand and start pointing. At which point he then turns and goes in motion while the linemen are still pointing.

Like I said I get the gimmick. But no one ever stood and came set. They stood and started pointing at assignments, as he then goes in motion.

As the refs have stated before, no one came set.

I posted that on my feed as well, it was clear as day

The Watts penalty for going too low on the lineman was horrendous. There’s a reason it’s rarely called. It has to be super egregious and Watts simply took him on in his upper stomach area. The illegal motion with Sanders and Campbell was also dumb. They held Sorrell once badly and Sweat at least twice badly. 

[Tex Pete 20177]

Enjoy your win and stop being an asshole.

If that was the only example of mistakes, it would have been fine. But they were happy to call holding on Texas and ignore it all night on them. Ignore other PFs, delay of game, false starts/neutral zone, and dpi. They were on the spot if a Texas lineman twitched or farted, but they suddenly couldn’t see shit when it was their line.

Another example of a team playing us that gets well below their average calls, yet we can easily see penalties committed by them all game, some are the same sloppy procedural ones we got dinged for.

Texas radio guys were trying to say something like it’s allowed inside 5 yards? I dont know all the rules but that seems suspect. And I thought it was after the play so PF.

You’re about to lose a lot of good will. WA was the better team, Penix was unreal. Refs didn’t cost the game, some of Texas reasons for losing were self inflicted but WA won the damn game and deserves to move on no question. So knock it off. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5026]

I very seldom ever go into the officials "rigged" the game mode.  In this instance, I believe there is enough questions that should be answered.  There are plenty of comments here a person could multi-quote to make a point.  I'll just leave these 2 questions.  How does their O-line not get a single call against the nation's best interior lineman?  Next, perhaps the officials were "encouraged" to help the PAC 12 along in their final season?  From here, it sure smells fishy.

Maybe, However I see it another way. Ask yourself these three questions:

What conference do the officials work in?

What conference will UW be in next year?

What conference will the eventual NC winner be in next year?

 

If you get the same answer for all three questions, there might possibly be a reason.

 

[The_Great_Hornsby 3325]

Let me preface this by saying the refs did not cost us the game. I firmly believe the football gods gave us a chance to win this thing despite all of the BS and how badly we played and we squandered it. 

A few ref observations: 

1. Very one sided officiating all night

2. Texas was constantly marked a yard short or Washington was given a yard more than they were supposed to get. Some of these plays had to be reviewed to undo the shitty spotting. 

3. The "block below the waist" was a fucking joke

4. The most egregious call of the game was the late hit personal foul hit in the back that they threw the flag for when Washington had the ball up 6 on their own 22 yard line (this wouldve made it 2nd and 22 from their own 11 yard line) but then inexplicably picked it up

5. I think the Blue fumble was not a clear recovery before the refs had blown the whistles 80 times and caused the players to stop scrumming for the balls as hard as they were. Blue fumbles it and the refs came running in blowing their whistles and the ball was still free and Xavier almost came up with it but they had already blown the play dead and nobody had it. To me, the recovery was not clear and immediate. This take will probably be controversial, but thats how I saw it. 

Anyways, we still should've won the game. 

[bschoolprof 6232]

We get called for lots of penalties, including pre-snap penalties, because this team loves to shit itself in the dick.  That's a coaching issue I guess.  What's maddening is that every team we play seems to have their cleanest game of the season when we play them and refs rarely call things even handedly.  It's horseshit.

Maybe he's already upset about the terrible officiating he'll be witnessing in the foreseeable future.

[hookem48 4631]

the refs don't let opposing receivers get free releases off the LOS like our secondary has for about 15 years now.
