That holding call was blatant LSU type arse rigging

That flag was an insurance policy in case that pass was complete. ACC wasn’t letting Miami lose that game.

Bottom line -- REFS play favorites --- especially when it comes to betting.

If this is a Bobby Bowden-coached FSU, the call goes FSU's way.

Nah man, not if its a # 2 ranked SEC team, with #1 having lost.

Those higher ups absolutely made it known to tilt the scales if Miami had a shot to win.

the fact that that flag was called on a double team on a player who had no impact on the play and wiped out a hail mary in overtime of a rivalry game is all that needs to be said

also go watch that play and see an absolute launch straight into the QB after he lets go of the ball

Nice to see a coach finally have some backbone and stand up against this shite.

Their spinelessness around addressing these things and acting like officials can’t outright determine outcomes of games is a contributing factor in why this has gotten so bad

No doubt. The ACC is a one team league right now. No way they let Miami lose that.

He should talk to the refs in Provo and London (holding call on the touchdown a was beyond horrid).....

Newsflash. College is worse than pros. And high school even more so.

1 team gets in no matter what
What does it matter for UM to get that call?

And that call was horrid, refs overall are pretty bad.

He knows this loss probably guarantees that he gets fired by the end of the season. If he had pulled that game out then he might have held on for another year. At this point he has nothing to lose in calling them out.

You’d be surprised. This admin is doing anything they can to prevent that and paying the buyout. Would be the 3rd largest buyout in CFB history.

I bet if he cans his DC he will get another year. This admin isn’t serious about winning.

It would make more sense to keep him and put that money that they would buy him out with into the roster. It would probably yield better results than buying him out and paying another coach to come in and not have any money to build a decent team with.

Would make sense, but his current reputation is causing FSU to have to overspend for players to get them to agree to come here. If you’re getting a million to go to either LSU or FSU, you’re choosing LSU unless FSU pays you more.

He should be pissed. That was an absolute bs call. Not to mention winning that game could have saved his job.

Norvell trying to take the heat off him by playing the victim card. Even if he gets the TD, he still has to make a 2pt conversion to TIE the game
