We all know that the "taunting" call was a joke. In addition, consider these examples of poor or biased officiating:
1. The no call on obvious pass interference by the Gators early in the game.

2. The no call on an obvious horse collar tackle by the Gators.
3. Numerous no calls on blatant holding by the Gator offensive line.
4. Although the procedure penalty called against us by an official sixty yards down the field when we only had three players on one side of the ball when one of our players had to hold the ball due to the wind was correct, did you notice that each time Florida held for the kickoff that the holder was offside (leg extended well beyond the stripe) every time, but no call. By the way, our player's entire body was on the correct side of the stripe when we had to hold for the kickoff.

Good. We will need to overcome officiating in one more game this year.

I remember in 07 when the big east officials were doing everything in their power to help wvu win. It's just pitsburg beat them so bad the officiating was a moot point

I guess we need to use a left footed kicker in order to have enough players on each side of the ball.

I remember seeing numerous bad calls the entire game. It was pretty horrible. There needs to really be some kind of way to challenge or get a penalty as game changing as that. I was pretty phases about it the whole game

also "seemed" like a horse collar tackle on Ware at one point too


When LSU dominates teams like they have basically all year, some calls won't come b/c officials KNOW you are kicking their arse and don't need help

IMHO of course

There was a lot if FAIL from officials yesterday.

Only question is was it bias or incompetence?

Most of the time it is incompetence IMO.

1. Obvious block in back on Mo (as he is about to go for the tackle) on UF's longest running play.

2. No late hit call on J Lee after long pass to RR.

3. No PI call in Beckham with guy all over his back.

4. Obvious horse collar no call on Ware.

5. Bad personal foul on sidelines on L. Edwards.

Not to mention judgement call on Wing's TD.

That's off top of my head.

How many did UF get hosed on?

Please, please don't be "that guy" who bitches about biased officiating in a game that we won by 30 points. There are missed calls in EVERY football game. There is no "bias".

The worst of the day.

I don't pay attention to refs, it is what it is. But that one was just fabricated.

Ok...how many calls did UF get hosed on?

All borderline/judgement calls went in their favor.

I'm very worried about officiating at the bama game.

I think some of you are over blowing this officials thing. They weren't as bad as you're saying.

The tackle on Ware looked like a tackle by the dreads to me. And grabbing someone by the hair is perfectly acceptable.

Then those "pass interference's", a lot of our players were slipping when making cuts. They were falling down before even being touched by Florida's CBs.

We won by 30 points. Be happy. The refs did a decent job. And as sucky as the Wing call was, it's the rule, not the call that blows. If the ref DIDN'T call it then he'd be in hot water.

quit finding every little thing to bitch about. LSU gets its fair share of calls to go their way.

If I hadn't watched the game yesterday and know the final score and rely solely on what I read on this board I would think we got beat by 2 TDs.

most usually. refs miss calls, but most of the time they get them right.
some lsu fans seem to be readying the excuses about officiating if there's a loss at alabama. if lsu, executes and plays like it has so far, it won't lose----to anyone.

That was one of 8 no calls against bama in the game. But remeber the sec had decided before the season started that Fla & bama would meet for SEC title and there were numereous calls in bama & fla's favor through several games. (f you think officiating was bad Sat wait till Nov 5th.

I thought it was absolutely ridiculous on that long ball to Andre Debose. He clearly stepped out of bounds, the sideline judge threw his hat off to indicate the receiver was ineligible yet Debose came back in bounds and caught the pass. WTF???
