Worst call of the game was bama late long TD pass. Perkins got held big time allowing that play to be made. LSU would not have got that no call, they wanted bama to score

That is why it was so genius for BK to go for 2…refs were not going to let us win

That and the new overtime rules where eventually it’s just a two point conversion shootout

The smart play is in the overtime where you have the ball second if the other team scores a TD you go for two if you score a TD. Choose your best two point play and win or lose on it. I will never be mad at a coach for losing the game with this strategy.

You mean the play that was called perfectly by the refs? Man, people can whine about anything.

How can you tell me I had more fun at the wrong game

I completely understand your point of view. In 2019, the game I enjoyed the most was the Bama game in Tuscaloosa. I was there; it was a blast; and I enjoyed it more than the Clemson game, which I also attended.

meh there’s an image of us holding the ball while the Bama player is still airborne but that’s besides the point. It’s a terrible rule. It should be illegal touching if you fumble the ball go out of bounds and then touch it.

So stupid. If the refs were cheating why didn't they call holding on LSU's OT TD?

It’s an iffy call on if the player touched the ball while out of bounds but the rule itself is dumb. I’m not sure why on a loose ball the ball is dead if a player out of bounds just touches the ball without possessing it.

Exactly my point. It’s a terrible rule. Truly. Shouldn’t any player out of bounds touching a live ball be a penalty?

Absolutely. Unless you're ala-shame-a. Then mysteriously it's ok.

Not stupid at all. Completely true

Harold Perkins got raped in a very visible place, but it was third and long and a sack ends the game

Favoring one team doesn’t mean every single play is affected.
