Question about officials for the game??

[Bull Matrix]

Anyone know whose officials are going to be doing the game tommorow?? I remember last season, it was a C-USA officiatiing crew in Tampa. I hope we have the BIG EAST officials tommorow just because UCF had their C-USA officials last season. I just never trusted those C-USA officials. Thanks in advance.

That's not entirely true.  McNeese didn't bring Southland officials.

We had Sun Belt officials because the contract with FIU stipulated that one of the three games used Sun Belt officials.

That being said, officials are paid by the home team - so it's possible that they could be C-USA officials.

All D1 games have the visiting teams officials

That's not true...I know we had SEC officials at the Alabama game a few years ago (or were we independent then?) and I'm pretty sure that South Carolina game had SEC officials also.

Might have been independent then.  I know ND usually uses Big 10 officials when they play Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue, regardless of whether its a home game or not.

Not sure what officials ND uses against another indy like Navy??  Maybe Big East officials??  Not sure.

It has always been my understanding that the visiting team brings the officials in D1

lets hope that we never find out.  only time they mention which conference the officals are from is when they screw up

[UCFIN89]

The officials will be Big East by contract.  The big time schools get away with their own conference officials when they have lesser teams in (we had SEC last week at UF).  The USF/UCF series has visiting team officials.

Like someone said above.... I better not find out which officals are at the game.  I want it fair... esp since our young team makes enough mistakes anyway.
