make the officials attend postgame press conferences and be subjected to questioning just like players and coaches. Give me one good reason why that should not happen?

Agreed. They are accountable to only 2 people- Head of SEC and Head of Offciating

One is a limp wristed fricktard the other is biased and corrupt.

Anyone notice that in 4 qtrs of regulation and 7 OTs not a single holding call?

3 false starts, 1 that was called on TAMU that shouldn't have been (overturned) and 1 on TAMU that was blatantly obvious no-brainer being stared at that they didn't call.

Seriously. Is there anyone out there that can give one good reason why they shouldn’t be at a presser afterwards? Please answered that specific question.

1. Officials are in route to their nearest bank.

2. Officials are late to their optometry appointment.

3. Officials are eating at Jimbo's and do not want to be late.

4. Exciting meeting with Dwight Howard and do not want to be late

If the SEC HQ had any ethics the win for texas am would be vacated and the Refs would be held accountable.

Before anything can be fixed, those in charge first need to recognize that there's a problem.

I think there needs to be a lawsuit filed against the SEC with multiple schools named. Maybe then they would get the fricking officiating right.

It’s not just the SEC, NFL refs screw up and nothing happens

Another example of how LSU got screwed. Our defense would have had a TFL on the play if not for the phantom illegal procedure call.

I write that one off to shite happens and it was a simple mistake. However, how do you call that one and not the later one, with the same back, moving forward, 1.5 sec before the snap, with half our defense pointing at him. THAT is where the problem arises.

So on the overturned INT... the back judge was staring right at him when he went down for the ball. Did not make a call. And review... what were they reviewing? The no-call? Do they do that for PI? Holding? How about reviewing the catch fumble? Nope, that's not worthy of a review. However, on a game ending INT they didn't review jack shite, there was no on-field call to review.

Oh, wait... they review ALL plays with a change of possession and just happened to spot that. Ok. Then back to the catch-fumble... was that not a change of possession worthy of review?

If I messed up that bad at my job, I would be fired. Just saying.

Do you know why this happens?

Hint: until you understand how your sports products are legally protected by "entertainment clauses/language", none of these things like protecting officials will make sense.

Why has nobody done this yet? Sounds like the right thing to do

It was so bizarre. The officials just hurried up and got the ball set for the next snap after ruling "incomplete pass." I couldn't believe they didn't at least call for a review of the play. It definitely deserved to be looked at more closely.
