No apology from SEC about hawkin's jersey being pulled on?

LSU gains momentum and moves the ball, running some clock.
LSU gains momentum and moves the ball, kicking a FG or scoring a TD.
LSU gains momentum and moves the ball, and punts deep into Florida territory.

Somehow, I don't see these things happening with a 1st down and 50 seconds on the clock, but that's just me.

I don't either, that's why I listed a lot more possibilities.

The only time LSU has ever deserved an apology from the SEC was after Auburn in 2006.

We lose this game no matter what. If the TD is called back, we lose 9-3.

Could be, could be. But I think a 6-3 or 3-3 halftime score changes both teams' strategies and the game may have played out totally different. Who's to say the same exact plays and events would have happened if the score is 3-3 or 6-3 at halftime?

Alem was flagrantly mugged on the play as well

I see that every game. and I'm not talking the "you could throw a flag there" types, I can let those slide. but more the "how in the frick do you NOT throw a flag there" types. 3rd and long on UGA's first TD drive, he got flat out tackled as he was getting to Cox.

In reviewing the replay not only did the linesman miss the jersey grab, but Alem was flagrantly mugged on the play as well, which was worse. I find it strange how little holding is being called against LSU opponents this season. Am I the only person suspicious of the lack of holding calls?

---

That's not the linesman's call.

You're "suspicious of the lack of holding calls"?

Please tell me more.

2006 was the 1st uyear that instant replay was used in the SEC. That year the home team supplied the replay officials. Which meant that Auburn hand-selected a replay official for the LSU @ Auburn football game. It was the Auburn hand-picked replay official that overturned Hester's fumble after a catch in the 1st half. It was the same hand-picked useful idiot that changed several calls in the 2nd half to prevent LSU from having a change on each of the drives that ended on downs due to horrible calls on 4th down.

The SEC has always assigned replay officials (It makes a great story though).

Would you mind providing a list of plays in the second half of that game that were overturned by replay?

Thanks in advance.

Look, what is right is right and wrong is wrong! What the FL receiver did was wrong and its as simple as that. He should have been flagged. There is no situation downfield that allows such to occur. BTW, that was the only TD FL was able to score against LSU. I'm not saying that it did make a difference in the outcome, but it could certainly have. I'll add Miles' decision to go for a field goal on 4th down to the equation, and say that if we had scored from the one on 4th down, we'd have 7 points. Take away that unearned TD and FL has 6. All you geniuses figure that one out.

Hawkins was clearly beaten with or without the jersey pull. He was looking in at the QB which is why in that situation they are taught NOT to do that. Having said that, the infraction was clearly there and I promise you that if a defender had done a similar thing to a WR that the field would turn yellow with flags.

There is a double standard on pass interference. You can get away with pushoffs many times or pulling jerseys by a WR while if the DB sneezes on the WR, he is flagged for pass interference or illegal contact.

---

I agree. I think Hawkins was beat on the play regardless. As an LSU fan, I wish there would have been a call, as there probably should have been. But, had the WR not pulled on Hawkins' jersey, he still beats him into the endzone. It is crazy how a slight hesitation or glance at the QB by a DB can get them beat.

For you to say he would have been beaten is crazy. No one knows what would have happened. What if that was LSU that scored and they would have not made the called what do you think would be happening this week? The same crap that was all over the air waves last week. I think he did the right thing by calling the SEC into question, no there is nothing that can be done now about it but the next time those oficials will be looking a lot closer at the players and the play that they make to make sure that it is right. If that would have been us on the other end and it would have cost us the game you would be yelling for Les to do something about it and he tells yall he will would not because he tells yall the same thing that yall are telling him you would be calling for his job, just like what all this negative junk is about anyway.

There was about 10 or 12 threads about that missed call Saturday Night and Sunday from the fan base, now that he has filed a complaint about it yall are saying that he shouldn't. It is hell if does and hell if he doesn't a no win situation with yall.
