re: For those of you who thought Kelly would accept SEC's ruling and ignore his players safety

He talked w them. And at the end of day, screeching at the officials is fruitless.

It was a missed call. But not nearly as impactful as two missed calls earlier in the gane.

The missed PI and the missed hold on Perkins were egregious and may have changed the game a bit

Ehh Nashville has a SEC school in it. New Orleans is the obvious answer here, but that would make too much sense for the SEC.

Hey it was 2009 all over again. It was predetermined that Bama would represent the West. LSU’s defense wasn’t good enough to represent the SEC in Atlanta. Like I said 2 weeks before the game our chances will be slim against Bama and the league. We would have to overwhelming beat them to win. We weren’t overwhelmingly better. Our defense sucked and this opened the door.

The SEC got exactly what they wanted. They usually do. If Kelly stays here long enough we might have a chance to turn this around. It’s going to take Kiffin, Kelly and maybe Jimbo to change things. I don’t think Jimbo is going to be around long enough though. It’s corrupt, it’s been corrupt since Bear Bryant and will continue to be corrupt until more honest, uncompromised, unbiased people are running the SEC. The refs need to be out of conference refs to start with. If the NCAA has any more stroke at all they should strive for independent NCAA approved refs who float around the country as teams and are professional year around refs. There is enough money to get this done. Local refs are a problem. The ability to compromise these guys is too high.
