Analysis on Alabama and Tom Ritter

The whole officiating ordeal we seem to go through with Alabama and Tom Ritter (2007, 2009, and 2014) has been bugging the hell out of me, so much so, that I did some research thinking that it would reveal an Alabama - Tom Ritter connection. But that's not necessarily what I found. Here's a summation of the Alabama officiating results from 2007 to present. Ritter seems to be the selected referee for a larger percentage of games against ranked opponents which might suggest his crew is being cherry picked for the games where Alabama could really use some help. But the records also show the best chance of beating Alabama is with Ritter officiatng.
Interpret the data as you wish. If you have any questions, I've got a lot more data as this is only a summation of the Alabama games.
Matt Austin - 19 Games, Record Overall 17-2, Against Ranked Opponents 6-2
Tom Ritter - 18 Games, Record Overall 11-7, Against Ranked Opponents 7-6
Penn Wagers - 12 Games, Record Overall 12-0, Against Ranked Opponents 2-0
Hubert Owens - 11 games, Record Overall 10-1, Against Ranked Opponents 3-0
Matt Moore - 10 Games, Record Overall 9-1, Against Ranked Opponents 1-1
Ken Williamson - 9 games, Record Overall 9-0, Against Ranked Opponents 1-0
Marc Curles - 8 Games, Record Overall 8-0, Against Ranked Opponents 2-0

All I know is that Ritter was responsible for 3 LSU losses in which his RIDICULOUSLY BAD calls directly caused the LSU loss. 2 to Alabama and 1 to Auburn. And those are just the blatantly bad ones.

Do you have specific data for LSU and Alabama?

yea it has nothing to do with the fact Bama is and has been a really good football team or anything.

The "best crews" tend to get the big games. I don't know in what universe the SEC thinks Ritter and Wagers are part of that club.. but.. it happens.

He lives and works in Nashville he also works for TSSAA & his day job is very very interesting to say the least, But you prob can't figure it out why........
But if you did you....

It is 3 days later and we are still talking about this shite? Turn the page for God's sake.

Can we just know what Ritter does for a living and what connection it has to Alabama or alabama boosters/fans/alumni
Seriously considering, if there is something in his job, to letting my cousin who is an fbi guy and does RICO stuff, knowing about it

When looking at the list provided, it might also be insightful to denote what time span is covered.
If Bama wasn't in contention in a particular season, the numbers may be skewed. The refs don't have to "win the game" for Bama, just keep them in position to win it for themselves.

Do any of you see the ridiculousness of saying the ref in more of Bama's losses than any other ref is in the tank for Bama? 
Posted on 11/12/14 at 9:57 am to BengalBeaux
DANG!!! after looking at those stats Bama is GOOOOOOD

Well, this kind of debunks the theory that Tom Ritter is a Bama hack, does it not?
