They should have replay for college baseball games. Even though the ump made the right call.

Jamarcus fumble in the 2006 Tennessee game. We retained possession but he lost that ball. If the correct call is made, we lose.

I couldn't see shite with that angle and the ump was looking directly at the base on the play.


I think the foot moved back just slightly. There is no angle to overturn the call. The ump had a WAY better angle.

No one has mentioned it, but how about during THE DRIVE in the LSU/Auburn game in 2007 ( the one that led to the infamous Flynn-to-Byrd TD win).

Richard Murphy had a fourth down run (I think about two yards to go for a first) in Tiger territory, that came up about a yard short! He CRAWLED forward for a 1st down, and the official spotted it as a FIRST DOWN! If that had been called correctly, there would have been no "comic book finish", and Auburn would have flown back to the Plains a winner.

It was surely a catch, and even with a review at worst the call would have stood.

There seemed to be a slight "Delay " for the clock to start moving on the final play, where Bert Jones hit Brad Davis with a pass in the South EZ......


Clock operator fudged a bunch.
Jones himself will laugh and tell you that there is no way that they ran 3 plays in 8 seconds and that Davis was out of bounds. Heard it from him myself. Davis disagrees with Jones on being out of bounds.

There it is. I was racking my brain about a 4th down run by someone besides Hester in 07.

Thank you. Worst/Best call I've ever seen. He got a yard extra on the spot.

Early Doucets game winning td reception against ASU 2005. That most definitely would be a incompletion in today's game.

Patrick Peterson's pick against Alabama that was reversed. LSU benefited because it eventually got Les fired.

By this logic, the Oklahoma State "kick that wasn't" against Iowa State in 2011 benefited LSU.
