You obviously aren’t familiar with their specific handshake.

Expect PI on LSU on both sides of the ball.

Already crying about the refs is just a self fulfilling prophecy. It doesn’t matter how well the game is officiated. You are going to bitch and fans for whoever loses will blame it on the refs. Just an absolutely pathetic mindset
agreed.

The "biased refs" narrative is for teenagers and immature adults who are emotional children.

It often takes decades for refs to get to the SEC. They're graded by their bosses on every call, every game.

And when a game is in Tuscaloosa, the refs aren't all from Tuscaloosa - they're from all over.

They don't have a dog in the hunt, and they sure as hell aren't going to jeopardize their ref career by cheating for a particular team.

To think overwise is just childish.

Did you see the end of the Texas vs Houston game. Cougars got fricked. Running back clearly got the first down and the refs placed the ball short. Teams do get hosed by refs often, denial is not a river in Egypt.

Yeah the shite was ridiculous honestly. I watched the game w family and my mom pointed out every damn time they held. Best part is Gary Danielson reviewing a play and ignoring an egregious arse hold that’s clearly shown on the replay. Burns my arse.

I fully expect Diggs, Jackson and co to have a big day. Hopefully Trey Holly gets in and has his coming out party. Or would this be the second one?

Wasn’t the ref yesterday a Tuscaloosa resident and business man? The SEC has always allowed the fox to guard the hen house. If people call out the obvious, they are mocked and ridiculed.

Wasn’t the head ref a business man from there?

Bama has been heavily penalized this year.
Against Tennessee, they were flagged FIVE YARDS. THE WHOLE GAME. FIVE YARDS.

I’ll ask again, was the head ref yesterday really a resident of Tuscaloosa?

I believe so. Even if they don't live in Tuscaloosa, many of them have children who attend/attended Bama or they have some other ties to the school.

I did not watch the game yesterday, so I will refrain from commenting on whether the officiating was good/bad/indifferent. But I can all but assure everyone that the officiating crew will not be the same for the LSU game. The SEC does a lot of bizarre things, but having the same officiating crew work back-to-back games for 1 team won’t happen.

LSU about to get more holding calls on them than all season combined. Watch how the refs do them.

It's more about when the penalties are called than how many. Tennessee had several penalties called on them at crucial times that killed scoring drives.
