Best officials we have had in 2 years. The sec guys are the worst.

Except for the taunting/celebration calls, I agree.

I thought they were pretty good too. They actually let the players play.

They could see way to well to be SEC refs.

That was the one complaint, the taunting. But they don't try to take the game over like sec. Does anybody know what conference that was.

They let both teams play. I didn't like the excessive celebration calls, but they had to call them.

They were PAC refs and personally I thought the officiating was abysmal; there were just enough bad calls going both ways that it was balanced at least

The taunting call was the correct call.
Celebration call was the correct call on a very bad rule.

This is how good they were...outside of the celebration calls i didnt even notice them....nor do i remember screaming at multiple uncalled holds on a TD run...before bama the sec refs protected and helped Auburn...the reffing should be handled on a national level period

The spot when they gave Jackson a first down and the booth had to reverse it was horrible. Can't believe the announcers didn't notice it.

Was impressed too. Wasn't happy about Guice's penalty for giving stands high-five, but the rule is clear cut so can't blame them.

I do wonder if we had something close to targeting how they would've called it. The PAC-12 crews have a sort of reputation of leaning towards calling some phantoms there. But, I guess thankfully, we didn't. Late hit on DE was indeed late, but not close to targeting.

Yep. That was horrible, but at least the booth got it correct. If an SEC group, we'd have been penalized for complaining.

When your agenda is not to benefit a team in red, amazing what happens. The over turned spot review was a breath of fresh air.

I even laughed when I saw a flag, refs gathered, then stated "no flag for personal foul but the shove was unnecessary" or something like that.

I didn't see on TV the shove.

Maybe show some discipline and not taunt, showboat, and "celebrate."

Just do your job and get ready for the next play.
