Maybe the most blatant PI I’ve ever seen.
Both teams had more blatant penalties yesterday. Blatant is when you get beat by the WR, chase him down with your back to the ball and push him as he is waiting for the ball with far superior position. On this play, it was basically the opposite of that

So it's kind of funny. About half of the posters agree with me and the other half disagree. I say, watch the replay a few times and you'll agree w/me.
A tipped ball is "up for grabs" in CFB. Whoever gets it has got it, period! And Pickett didn't throw the WR to the ground as a few have suggested. So maybe some who saw that need to book an eye appointment tomorrow.

This seems pretty clearcut with the fact that he did intercept and return a pretty strong argument that he was, in fact, playing the ball.

I despise SEC officiating but that was the right call. We aren’t Bama.you won’t get that call. We also can’t push a QB late. That’s another good call that cost us on that drive.

DJ looked like he wanted the ball, which is a good thing.
Made we wonder if he couldn't be the next Travis Hunter, great db and Wr. He certainly has the measureables.
We could surely use both next year.

Wtf do some of y’all look at? They were both locked up and the OM receiver did a LeBron style flop to sell the contact. Pickett never “threw” him.

Not to my eyes. Looked like a clean play when replayed.
What?! Lol.

i disagree, the wr's momentum took him past the ball that was underthrown. They were doing some minor handfighting but the WR didnt even see the ball until picket caught it, I think it was a bs call.

Yes. Or 1 more OM 3 and out.

The WR had his arm and NEVER looked back for the ball if anything it was OPI.

He clearly grabbed him and pulled him out of the way. I don’t know how this is in question.
Posted on 9/28/25 at 1:38 pm to mpwilging
You mean the INT he had as a result of committing PI?

Go look at the receivers hand where he is grabbing him trying to keep him from playing the ball. Please go REWATCH the play. It was either an OPI OR clean

It’s not clear that it was tipped though. You can see an LSU DL put his hands up but that’s about it. There’s no clear deflection of the ball or anything. It’s still a tight spiral when DJ catches it. As far as I can tell it was a clean throw, unless there’s another replay angle I’m not seeing that shows an obvious tip.

I saw it and I am blind. Even the announcers mentioned the tipped or deflected ball.
Typical SEC officiating IMO!

The receiver had no clue where the ball even was. Pickett located the football right away and made a play on the ball, not the man. Yes there was some hand fighting. There is always hand fighting. This is SEC football.
The receiver was initiating contact, blindly running into Pickett. It was a soft, terrible call.
And yes, it entirely changed the game. We lost the game in the last 6 minutes of the first half.

Ole miss Dbs and Wr held the hold game so that’s should have not beeen called on Pickett.

Pickett had him by the jersey shoulder with his right hand and spun him around backwards (toward the sideline). When he did that the back shoulder throw hit him right in the chest.
I dont know wtf you didnt see

I'll comment again
Was there some contact yes, was the intended receiver interfered with to stop a potential catch? No. How can a receiver potentially catch a ball that he never turned around looking for the ball. All 3 can do is clean it up a little bit, live and learn. That was a chicken shite pi call imo even if it happened the other way around. The rule says the wr doesnt even have to be looking at the football and id agree if the wr was planning to search for the ball eventually. He wasnt planning on finding any ball because he didnt think it was going to him tbw.
As a ref, Id let that shite play on. In the NFL thats a clean play all day. Now if the wr turns and makes an attempt on the ball with the contact like yesterday, yes its pass interference but thats not what happened.
