Openly calling out the SEC office on national media ruffled a few feathers in Birmingham for sure!!



When the hell did he do that before the game? I have sorely disappointed that he didnt light them up last week.

He did. He didn't bitch and whine to the media like Kiffin would do, but he made it clear that he sent the whole thing in to the league offices for review.

That's probably a bigger challenge to the league, because it isn't just trolling or coachspeak. We don't know how he worded what he sent in, but yesterday post-game he went on record as saying Turner's hit was clearly intended to hurt a player. If he went so far as to say in the letter "I realize that this was a marquee matchup and the home crowd's emotions were in it, but ..."
then THAT would be a quiet accusation of Bama bias.

Which might well have resulted in the targeting call they hit us with, a way of saying 'we could eject half your team if you don't shut up'.

That is not calling out the league officials in a heinous way. That is pretty much the standard reply given when someone asks about an officiating call in a press conf or other public address. Each team sends in film of calls they thought were incorrect every week. This is more for improvement of officiating and evaluation of personnel. Rarely do these submissions get a public acknowledgement and darn sure will will not change the outcome of the game. However the SEC could have reviewed this play and suspended Turner. The most common situations that get some public comment are disciplinary issues like fights.
