It sure doesn't feel like a conspiracy theory. Feels more like solid reasoning. It took a UH player throwing the ball at a USF player to get a flag thrown. These guys need to be fired. 

 

It was the same ref. 

 

All the false starts etc were legit. Those are on Willie and to a lesser extent - White. Kid looked great otherwise.

Via ESPN: South Florida had 19 penalties, the most by any FBS team in a game this season.

And according to the announcers we were averaging 49 yards in penalties coming in to this game. Yea doesn't seem fishy

I long suspect conferences instruct refs which way to lean. Heck this ref may have gotten an earful after raping us in 2007 and wasn't going to let it happen again.

Usf remaining undefeated should have been the instruction in 07. If only...

But I absolutely expect Alabama to get calls over any Sec team to assure them the best chance. I expect the Miami/FSU winner to get that treatment for the remaining ACC games.

I really don't think that's a conspiracy theory I think it's unfortunate reality of today's college football

Did we confirm that those were actually the same refs in the Rutgers game?  Can anyone bear to go back and watch that footage?

In all seriousness, if that ref ever comes to Tampa, and I'm sure he has, we need to know about this so we can do something to avoid this situation....

It's one thing to make a bad call, but for the same officiating crew to call it one way and then two plays later not call it is unacceptable.

If there really was a conspiracy, wouldn't they have called it on Houston to make it look like they didn't have a bias? That was an easy makeup call that refs usually give.

I'm not one to blame a loss on the refs, but I blame that loss on the refs.  Conspiracy!  :FIREdevil:
