re: 3 terrible calls last night by the refs

Brooks had two hands with knee/leg on ground. Play over. The fact that a player knocked the ball loose after that is irrelevant. And that he was out of bounds is also irrelevant. Play already over. That’s why the ref on the spot IMMEDIATELY signaled LSU ball. He saw Brooks with the ball and knee/ body on the ground. And the replay official had to overturn the call on the field. This bullshite about “complete” possession is just that. Completely made up by the TV guy. Brooks grasps the ball with 2 hands while on the ground. Play over.

Exactly this.

Cheaters like to inject vague standards to give them wiggle room to cheat.

If two hands holding the ball with knee down isn’t possession then you’d need some kind of tension/force detector installed inside all footballs to gauge the degree of possession, for fricks sake.
