I'd really like to know how Ritter's crew got selected for this game...

Lots of "no calls as well." Lewis Neal had his helmet ripped off by a Syracuse player.

Brandon Harris was wrapped up and taken to the ground at least 2 yards out of bounds.

I think the holding on Jeter was BS. Questionable, but man, you'd really have to be looking to make that call.

I guess the uncatchable ball thing doesn't translate to college, because on the KT2 PI, the ball was thrown into the middle of the end zone.

Of course, the Pocic hold was mind boggling and to me, a sign that the refs were targeting us.

I mean, flags should have flown both ways. The PI on Dural was convenient because he caught it anyways and didn't matter, but that was about the only flag thrown on Syracuse that I thought was tickey tack like the ones we had thrown.

How does KT get pulled down by a defender as the ball sails 20 yds past him and get called for dpi?

I thought the opi earlier was Ticky tack too.

According to miles both receivers checked with refs yet were flagged for illegal formation on the long LF TD.

That's 3 huge game changing penalties.

With all the corruption in the world , and & $ in gambling , how is it possible there are no corrupt officials? Seems unlikely yet we never hear about investigations ?

Just watched the DEBO late hit call and it looked bad to me. He nudged the guy in bounds then backed off. The guy flew out of bounds but so what he was trying to get extra yardage: he certainly didn't give himself up !!!

When this crew is calling the game, the Tigers need to keep this in mind and not give them any opportunity to call anything extra IMO. This crew is horrible but let them make their bad calls against the other guy.

The hold on Jeter was garbage, he had leverage, position, and it didn't influence play

The hold on Pocic was an out and out fabrication

The late hit on Debo

The non call on the SU receiver that threw a roundhouse kick

The pass int on Toliver when ball was thrown terribly

The illegal formation, if what was reported was true

Any more?

The alignment penalty was absolutely the correct call...whether they checked with the official or not neither one of them were close to being on the line...
I thought the PI calls were all legit and really poor plays by the CB...they had the receiver blanketed, you don't need to be so physical.
The Pocic holding and the roughing calls were God-awful and cost us big time...I also think the punter should have been flagged with or without intent, that's a penalty.
I think bug eyes' crew are just really bad not out to get LSU...

I don't think there is an conspiracy against LSU, I think SEC refs suck full time

We should request this crew to permanently replace Ritter for all LSU games.

Seriously though, did this ref ever explain himself?

Y'all are homers.

The PI on Tolliver was correctly called.

The holding in pocic was close but by definition correct. The out of bounds hit by Debo was close.

LSU committed the penalties. LSU was their own worst nightmare. We let Syracuse hang around.
