10 blown calls by refs that ensured Bama beat LSU, with images

1. 4th Quarter. Bama has ball at midfield and is driving with 20 seconds left. Bama "completes" 23 yard pass to LSU 24. Officials do not make a completion signal on field. After 3 seconds of debate, they capriciously spot the ball as a completion. Replay official required to review that play does not review it, even though he spent 3 minutes reviewing the obvious Bama fumble minutes earlier. CBS only shows one angle of the pass, which is obscured by the player's body. But still photography showed Bama player trapped ball and ball was on ground. Called correctly it is 4th and 4 at midfield with 13 seconds left.


2. Vadal's penalty in which he lightly pushes away bama player who is grabbing Vadal's leg, trying to get to Vadal's arse hole. Vadal pushes him away and Bama player flails arms in air. 2nd and goal at the 6 becomes 2nd and goal at the 21. LSU must settle for 3. Meanwhile, as you can see in the below video, #99 for Bama has an LSU player in a headlock and is yanking on it.

3. Bama's opening play in OT. Strange lineup sees an OT line as a WR and a TE line as OT. The formation is legal, until one looks at the Bama RB who motions to the far sideline. He is still in motion a split second before the ball is snapped. Rule states that he must be lined up for at least 1 second before snap. Should have been 1st and 15 at the 30. Instead, Bama gets a 1st and goal at the 1.



4. LSU driving in the 3rd quarter. Jennings passes and it goes straight to Bama DB. Terrible pass! Wrong. The Bama DB commits pass intereference, as he pushes the LSU player to the ground while the pass is in the air. CBS catches Bama player on sideline laughing and talking about the play, "I pushed him down!" Bama returns ball to LSU 25 and closes the half with a FG from that blown call. Instead of LSU leading 10-7, game is tied at 10-10.

5. The touchback that LSU actually downed at the 1. Of course replay official didn't look at it and ref 40 yards away made call even though another ref was 2 yards away and marked it at the 1
*Anyone have image or video of this?


6. The missed pass interferences in OT on 3rd and 4th downs.

7. The bad spotting for LSU that cost two first downs and ended in one change of possession. LSU attempted and succeeded in 4th and 1, but should never have been in that position.

8. The two blatant face masks not called on bama including ripping off Jennings mask

9. The 2 pass interferences on bama in regulation that were picked up

10. replay official not bothering to look at possible td that was called out of bounds. Was within half an inch of being inbounds but no look. At the same time, Bama grabs LSU player's facemask. No call.
