It was an easy fg either way


A short FG getting moved back 5 yards is how A&M beat Arkansas. FGs are not gimmies for college kickers.

It was just another example of the refs caressing Harb's nuts.

Plus it gave them a clock stoppage.

And it got them closer on a cold windy day.

There was over 20 seconds left for them to line up and spike. If anything, they should have let the clock run so they could spike it at 4 and kick on the final play.

Just ignoring the "got them closer", let alone the other egregious calls previous to that one?

The point is it wasn't the only call that swung Meatchicken's way.

In this scenario, you don't think ILL would have called their last time out to preserve time?

Is that interference? I insist it was blatant but my buddy said perfectly legal. It was so obvious that I guess it must be legal since the official was right there. Hmmnnn??

Big 1G os garbage this year. You have two teams who play average to terrible teams all year - until OSU and UM play the last week.

This year, conference as a whole is worse than Big 12 Pac 10, ACC.

No doubt winner of next weeks game gets in. Loser - doesn’t matter which one. Neither deserves to go to CFP.

Committee needs so send a message here - treat this as a loss to neutralize officials doing this kind of stuff.
