Watch a big Gump game with a neutral observer and they will point out the bullshite for you without a dog in the fight. Make sure you don't influence them though and watch what they pick up. It's happened to me a number if times but I guess it's just LSU fans and Auburn fans and Tennessee fans and Georgia fans..........

Today won't be the litmus test for Bama favortism for rantards.
There is no such day because the rantards are hell bent on proving it.
Even when we get calls against bama, it wasn't enough. They are like democrats.....they wish to be offended so they have some kind of weird currency to cash in later. It will never stop.

So for the Gump fans who claim there's no bias I have a question.
Would you be willing to move the SEC HQ to another state, replace all department heads with people who have no ties to the state of Alabama, move the baseball tournament to another state (or rotation), and remove the Birmingham Bowl as an SEC tie-n?
PROVE you receive no special treatment by eliminating any hint of impropriety!
I would love to see what would happen if officiating, scheduling, compliance, and sanctions were administered fair and equitably.
It won't happen so I would love to see the other 12 (maybe 13) schools form a new conference and leave Gumpville to play with themselves.

SEC Office-via Bama alum Steve Shaw as Director of Officiating-said Tom Ritter's crew was #1 ranked heading into Bama/LSU game.
FACT: SEC Office suspended and demoted several members of that top ranked crew.
I wonder why?

Article from al.com entitled. Yeah, he's "comfortable".
"Les Miles 'comfortable' with explanation of calls in Alabama game from SEC officials chief Steve Shaw."
LINK
Quote from Shaw. I'm thinking CLM is still pissed.
"I would respect the privacy of those conversations," Shaw said when asked about the conversation and was told Miles was "happy" with the explanation. "Coach Miles has a great personality. I won't use your word 'happy.' We had a complete understanding of plays from the game, what our officials look at, and what their expectations are. I would say it was very productive, a conversation that was helpful for me and him."
LINK
That convinces me there is no bias.

They won't cheat, they'll just call the game like anyone who is rooting for Bama woukd.
You don't need all the refs, just one can change any close game.

On the last drive Bama had to tie the game against us. The pass to Christian Jones bounced off the ground. There are plenty of still photos from a side view that show the ball on the ground. Bama ran up and snapped the ball, no review. Now in the Iron Bowl, an Auburn receiver and Bama DB caugh a dual possession ball on the sideline. Refs called it Auburn ball. Auburn ran up real fast just like Bama did us and snapped the ball and ran a play. After the play, the refs reviewed it anyway. Now they didnt overturn it, but they sure gave it a second look. If they give the reception against us a second look, it is now 4th and 4 at midfield with 14 seconds left instead of first and 10 at our 23 yard line. Not saying we win, but I like our chances. How did they review a call in the iron bowl after another play had been run?

Its amazing they review every close call but yet on that final drive to tie the game this year that trapped ball the Bama receiver caught which replay shows the ball touched the ground there was no stoppage of play for booth review and that was the quickest snap of the ball to get the play off so it can't be reviewed...
Yet the Auburn game Auburn gets the next play off yet the refs come back and review the last play which by rules you are not suppose to do...
Yes...they cheat...there have been far too many "questionable" calls...where there is smoke there is fire...
Until the SEC office is moved from B'ham there will always be this albatross hanging over every Bama game...

Couldn't have said it better myself......Gumps don't know what it is to play on a level playing field....they never have because they have never had to.....

[quote]Posted by Uncle Luke on 12/6 at 10:34 am to Drizzt They cheat for Bama blatantly, not just this year, not just against LSU. They will tilt the table in any close SEC game. It is an acccepted fact, not debatable. Missouri has absolutely no chance of winning the game tonight, even if they outplay them, the Gump Home Office aint having it. The league will not miss the first NCAA playoffs, no way, no how. [quote]
This. Ask Georgia fans about two years ago.

BUMP!
And what about the "touchback" that was not a touchback. No review.

This is one visual example of a no call that I think was intentional! Feel free to disagree, but I was in the South Endzone of Tiger Stadium where this happened and it was one of the most awful examples of Pass Interference I've ever seen that wasn't called.
