turning point in game was the "non-offside" penalty on uga on the blocked punt, huge field position and momentum shift...

Offense jump and gets no call
Defense NOT enter the NZ and get flagged on a play where they blocked the kick
A tackle well tackle a DE on a critical 3rd down play no call
A clear face mask go uncalled


I quit watching after that ten point swing and told my buddies via text that Bama would win this fix job by three.

Waking up this morning and seeing these replays gives me a good laugh.

While I slept, millions of football fans just got more pissed off while denying the blatantly obvious.

At least CFB manufactured a great game, right guys?

LOLOLOL

One day everyone will realize CFB, like Santa, is entertainment for grown ups. If you want to enjoy it you have to accept it for what it is. This will never change because it makes too much $$$.

UGA was well on their way to a blowout too. Too bad for them.

Saban making one of the ballsiest calls you'll see in college football by switching to Tua cost Georgia the game.

I still would like someone to explain to me how he was offside.

So after all those years working at Bama, Kirby forgot about the Bama Blessing, did he?

Or did he just imagine he took it with him?

I'm really amazed how much of a shell UGA's offense went into during the 2nd half.

Certainly the officiating seemed to favor Bama (Shocker) however, Georgia had every opportunity to win that game and could not get it done. Unfortunately they came up short.

The punt block for one was as big as it gets.


This is wrong and people need to learn the rules before posting stupid shite.

The refs did miss a false start in the play so the blocked punt would not have mattered. With the false start the ref should have blown the whistle and the play is dead. The ball is moved back 5 yards and Bama pints. The end.

I think it's a mixture of both. Kirby Smart being conservative with the offense was ridiculous. But the number of calls that did not happen is kind of ridiculous.

The 2 calls that were huge imo were both procedure calls
On punt block it gives UGA 5 yds of Field position and the Punt teams stays in longer so yes it matters but they gave Bama 5 yd advantage
The TD throw the RB was going forward it makes it 4th and 9 and Tua doesn’t get bailed out by Ridley as they change the play.

Can we talk about the grabbing the facemask call on #14 that led to another first down?


Also, the punch to the head of Fromm w/ the ref looking directly at the player.

Yes that was horrible... and it may not have cost them the game but the face mask that was missed and the helmet shove would have continued drives for UGA... it's not always about a missed call but WHEN the call is missed.... but UGA still had that game and blew it because they quit attacking in the 4th quarter....

Except it does matter they’re punting 10 yards further back and Bama has to “hold its water” it changed field position.
