I saw these from high up in the stands, but:

--Absolute bullshite roughing the passer on Alem in the final minute that shortened the field for UW and made it much easier for them to score the last TD

--Clear helmet to helmet on JJ in the 2nd half.

--Worst PI call of all time. No contact whatsoever. And faceguarding is legal, no?

I thought the same thing, but watching the replay it looked purely coincidental.

Maybe so, but LSU had their fair share of the bad calls including a no-call on intentional grounding in the endzone for a safety.

I get SO tired of people bitching about the refs. LSU won the game and little pussies gotta start a thread about the refs. ITs really sad. Its always the refs fault if LSU doesn't win EVERY game by 50 points!!!

Spot on. I was screaming about all 3. That pass interference call was worse than Refgate. That was obvious

No. Probably a "make up" call.

Also, UW's right tackle moved way early on several plays, including the final TD pass, but never got called for it.

At the end, they weren't calling much that would slow UW. I did note that LSU's left DE lined up off-sides a few plays, and the refs failed to catch that either. The linesman on that side of the field must have wanted to get home early.

ESPN never did show the supposed roughing the passer against Alem.

And, they also wouldn't show a good replay of the supposed pass interference at the goal line. I thought that Taylor even got his hand on the ball and deflected the pass.
