So the refs were at it once again last night, yet our Tigers overcame their ignorance. So tonights blown call award recipients are:

1) After catching the ball for a first down, Oregon's WR throws the ball in the air. Surely unsportsmanlike conduct right. Surely a 15 yard penalty. Nah, not today.

2) After the botched snap fumble, Ware pounced on the ball. On further review it appeared at least to me that Ware had secured the ball on the ground. After a Duck speared him, the ball popped loose once again. Surely a reviewable call. Surely this wasnt a turnover. Nah, not today.

3) OBJ catches a nice ball from Lee for over 30 yards. Not a great throw but a nice play none the less. Wait whats this, a mythical holding call. Are you kidding me?

4) **Late addition** - The Loston unsportsmanlike conduct call. Not real sure about that one. It looked to me that had he made contact it could have been a call but, it seemed he whiffed on the hit. Dont forget this happened on 3rd down and led to a Ducks TD.

Please vote on your favorite....BLOWN CALL

Don't forget the 1st down by Ore that was overturned after Les challenged it. Ref was staring right at the receiver going out of bounds short of the sticks.

#3. There was positively no holding call on anyone and nullified a great catch.

4th and whatever for Oregon and the ball is throw to the sideline and caught. The ref is all over the play and says the first down is made. Les challenges and on second look the receiver goes out of bounds 2 yards short right in front of the ref

did they call that holding on Longergan? He literally did nothing the entire play. Horrible call if it was on him.

Ware never had the ball secured on that bad snap.

We won. Oregeon had 10 penalties and they didn't show most of them on replay.

I think he spiked the ball and it flew in the air.

Definitely #3. That mystery holding call was at a critical time in the game. Negated a huge gain and momentum boost. I think it was on 3rd down too.

thank god for replay, that was one of the most horrendous calls I've seen. The phantom holding was bad also, but the other 2 in the OP are nothing to whine about.

We did get a break on the second punt return fumble, an Oregon player clearly had control of the ball on the ground before he was dogpiled and prison raped.

3 was the worst.

They flagged something that wasn't a penalty. Not sure what the refs saw.

This one was the worst IMO.

In fairness to the Ducks, I think they recovered the kickoff that they fumbled. So I can accept this.

I can live with this. Definitely unsportsmanlike but doesnt have anything to do with the actual game.

I'm pretty sure Oregon recovered their fumbled kickoff and Ware's fumble in the 1st quarter. That one surprised me.
