However, that call negating Jackson's catch on our first possession was a bad call. I don't know what replay you were looking at but his foot was not out of bounds when he caught the ball.

around4ever 4,139 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I have noticed, as many have, that officials are just letting OLinemen hold on every play. The NCAA needs to change the wording of the rule if they aren’t going to call it as written. And yes, our guys do it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnEagle79 2,165 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Under the umbrella of playing against Bama, I thought it was as even of a game as we could've asked for. Sure they held some, but I thought that we couldn't have asked for better. Maybe they are tired of Saban erupting on them when things don't go his way.

cole256 17,042 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 So how does this effect the refs hate Auburn and they will never let us win a close game theory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnacle 9,064 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 What many people failed to notice was that the refs allowed two seconds to run off on the previous first down. We got a first down, and our runner was down with the whistle blown with 20 seconds left. The refs then allowed two more seconds to run off, giving us 18 seconds. Saban himself said you need 3 seconds to clock the ball. If they correctly preserved those two seconds, and correctly stopped the clock at 01 second without the need for replay, we would have had 3 seconds and enough time to clock the ball.

You can't reason with those people, Cole. We could have had 0 penalties called against us last night, and people would still claim the refs were trying to fix the game in Bama's favor.

If they would have called it a catch on the field, I'm confident that replay would not have overturned the call. That play was more about the call on the field than the replay, IMO.

It was close, and believe me I wanted it to be ruled a catch as much as anyone. He did not have possession while inbounds though, unfortunately.

You should see the basketball threads too....we'll literally not work the post or attack the goal sometimes and people will be ready to kill you if you don't go with the refs not giving us free throws routine....it's crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaltyTiger 7,773 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I think for the most part the refs do a pretty amazing job and often the replay proves it. Sure they miss one from time to time but when it goes your way we understand that they are human. Call ever holding and the game would take nine hours.

The key was the whistle was the signal to snap the ball. We practice that. Everybody knew. Watch the replay. The white hat starts his arm motion to start the clock simultaneously with the whistle. The snap was immediate. The white hat didn’t even finish the arm motion. Well done by the kicking team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Marlon said, "It's hard to overcome the opponent and the refs." The SEC is throwing games. I don't think it's a conspiracy, I think it's common sense. Boy they really blew this one. Don't they know they missed out on 6 million dollars? They must have known we were onto their little ruse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
