Could LSU put in a request for an officiating crew from another conference for the Bama game or do SEC crews always officiate SEC games? Alabama is already a very tough team to beat, not sure why they always are able to get a bama crew to officiate SEC games.

SEC officials are under contract to officiate SEC conference games. No way Mike Slive allows another conference's officials in a game of this magnitude.

That being said...I sure hope it isn't Ritter or Penn Wagers. I'd love for Matt Austin or Marc Curles to officiate it. The Williams guy is pretty solid....Don't have any heart burn with Hubert Owens' crew either.

meh

I thought the SEC crew did a better job last November than the out of conference crew did in the NC game.

Did you actually think about what you were about to ask? There will be some dumb questions on the Rant this week but this will definitely be one of the dumbest. Congrats

If serious, then this is the stupidest question I have ever seen on the Rant. Ever. And that covers a LOT of ground.

Hey, it would be ok to have a non SEC crew to officiate, but if Bama agreed to that, then maybe ya'll should agree to a neutral site, like Georgia dome. I wouldn't care who called the game as long as it wasn't played in BR at night.
That is a huge advantage..............(that's a compliment by the way).

We need a comprehensive body of NCAA officials. That would get rid of this conference affiliation bullshite. Each crew should have officials who's homes are in different conference areas. That would resolve, or at least alleviate, the slant in favor of teams in Alabama and other schools which reside in the same states/cities as their respective conference offices.




And any Gump who wants to chirp about how this slant is a fabrication can take that shite somewhere else. It has been blatant for the last 5-6 years, not only in the SEC but all over the country.
