On the replay, it was nearly identical to the situation with Early Doucet in the 2006 game. This time, though, the refs got it right.






In the 2006 game, the ball was tipped. There is no pass interference after that.

So, it was not identical. The contact may be the same. But, there was no tip this time (BEFORE the contact).


Now, you can argue as to whether or not you agree that the '06 ball was actually tipped. But, THAT was the call and the reason that the pass interference was denied.


First off, people are arguing with you because this is what you said first and you were 100% incorrect, just flat out wrong. Now you have changed the conversation to whether or not the 2006 call was correct or not instead of did the same thing happen. That was 5 years ago, it's been argued a thousand times, and completely on video and in pictures. There's not much more to discuss. The refs made a ridiculous ruling that is pretty unanimously agreed on by any non-Auburn fan. An uncatchable ball must be CLEARLY uncatchable, as per the rule book. This was a pass interference that was called on the field, and a ball that was no more than two yards from the WR that was being held back. If that was the correct ruling, any time a CB "hooks" the WR and knocks the pass down, that wouldn't be pass interference. Any time a DB runs through a WR, as long as he knocked it down pre WR, it wouldn't be PI. And of course, the play that happened just this past saturday would not have been PI. Unless you were watching a completely different game, a DB came and knocked the ball down before it got to Randle who was molested.

PS- you bringing up the ruling of officials that got suspended and a guy who no longer has that job does not help your argument.

What makes that game and that call more frustrating is that on an earlier play when AU had the ball, an LSU player made an interception in front of the receiver and interference was called on LSU because the receiver was being mauled by another LSU player.

Very inconsistent at best.
