In my personal opinion, the game was not lost because of the no int call. I think people need to get over this. It is part of the game. If the refs didn't see it our way, then they didnt. To me, what cost us the game was two things: the fact that we didnt continue to put pressure on McElroy with blitzes and the fact that we had so many unneccessay penalties. Again, this is just my opinion. Agree, disagree?

the only way for people to get over things is for it to stop being fricking posted every 5 minutes.

The entire point of the debate is that the game should have been decided by the players, not the officiating. It's as simple as that.

Didn't help either.

We did not lose the game because we could not pressure Mc. We lost because of momentum swings, personnel inconsistencies and __________??

On the field yes but this is what instant replay was supposed to fix. If replay is not going to solve the on field errors by officials, do away with it and stop delaying the game.

we had so many unneccessay penalties


Part of what has everyone concerned.

But Alabama managed to seal the victory because of it. The injuries to Scott and Peterson had more to do with the loss than anything Alabama did. Jones never makes that play with Peterson on him, the uncalled block in the back notwithstanding. Give 'Bama credit for feeding JJ the ball when they realized Peterson and Eugene were both nursing injuries on the sideline.

I agree that you're an attention whore for creating a thread to voice an opinion that has already been mentioned ten billion times in the last few days.

Correct, the INT didn't cost us the game by itself.

But the call was missed.

The refs did NOT see the play at all...so their first instinct is to keep Bama undefeated for Florida

I guess you aren't a big believer that giving Bama a second chance on a clear turnover, giving them the opportunity to make it a 2-score game and being robbed of the opportunity of swinging the momentum back in our favor had much of an effect on the outcome? Like it or not, the outcome of MANY games in many sports in the course of history hinge on one single play.

Alabama gained 199 more yards.
Alabama got 11 more first downs.
Alabama committed half the penalties.
Alabama scored 14 in the 4th.
Alabama scored 9 more points.

Blame the refs for this one, and you're a moron.

no, but it prevented us from winning the game. take away bama's FG and give us almost 6 minutes to go 70 yds to win it. maybe we would have, maybe we wouldn't have but we woulda had a chance and that interception gave us that chance that some a-hole in the replay booth took away from them.

Find me someone here saying the game was lost because of the int no call. People are pissed that the refs got it wrong and took a possession away from us. No one knows what would have happened after that.

Not one person said it was...did you just crawl out from under a rock, or are you not capable of analytical thinking?

It is unknown whether LSU could have driven to a touchdown after the interception. It is a fact that the officials denied LSU the opportunity to try. That's why discussion of the officiating is relevant.

Most LSU fans don't think we lost the game because of the call. We just wanted the CHANCE to have the ball and try to score. Getting the call doesn't mean we automatically score. Just wanted the chance.
