Officiating Last Night

[MaltLiquorBull]

I was at the game and had a few beers.  I didn’t see the telecast, so I only know what I saw.  Seemed to me that the officials were a bit one sided.  Many huge calls to sustain key drives for FAMU, and likewise many calls that negated big gains for us. Maybe it was all legit.  It just seemed very lopsided.  I saw a few unsportsmanlike things by FAMU that were not called.  Yes, of course, I’m a homer, and I know you need to overcome these things to win, but it just felt a bit like Rutgers ‘07.  But hey, we won.

LOL .... just posted something in another thread. I'll move it here.

And not sure where else to put this but where were the refs from last night? They weren't horrible but 2 questions .... in college is there supposed to be no PI on an uncatchable ball? What was the announcers reaction to that PI non-call on the near sideline later in game? Loved seeing CAG giving it to the ref, even into the timeout.

I think you always feel it as a fan but i agree last night seemed more so than usual

Do we know what conference they came from?

Last night felt like we were getting screwed through the first half.

Didn't FAMU score like two touchdowns on our defense due to questionable calls extending their drives? I was at the game and couldn't see the replays on tv to see if they were legit or not.

they seemed to just go along with whatever was called

Uncatchable is still a thing which sucks.  In college, you can wave off the PI against the defense for uncatchable but not the offense which makes zero sense.

And that non-PI call looked more like holding than PI which I think is a thing regardless of catchable.
