Yep, I saw this too. Bammer has been getting away with this for years. THis is what pisses me off about SEC officiating being so bammer biased. I hardly see bammer being called for holding, but they sure like to call everybody else for it.

Steelers finally got a touchdown. I thought they were going to go TD-less for the entire playoffs

Do the Steelers know how to do anything besides kick field goals?

Go Chiefs! Hope Dee Ford sacks Roethlisberger a couple of times

al.com = crap. Unless you're a bammer fan, there is no reason to get info from them on any other collegiate program

I can agree with that.

The SEC as a whole had an out of conference record of 38-13. However, the majority of those teams were cupcakes. Don't know if that really makes the SEC look any better. I believe the SEC was subpar this year. Definitely not the pinnacle league this year. Anyways, it will be interesting to see the SEC's bowl record.

I was at the game and yes from what I saw much work needs to be done at the free throw line. You're right, we won't be able to win many close games down to the wire without making free throws.

I've said it all year and I'll say it again. The SEC officiating sucks this year. What do expect when you have a bammer heading the officiating?

Pittsburgh defense looked horrible

I trust your judgement on this one, coach. When I watched it the first couple of times, I thought he was offsides. You keyed in on a detail I did not think about: Tyler Stovall's quick thinking and reaction. Hats off to Stovall for saving the day, or it could have been worse...

I don't remember single holding call on Vandy. In fact in the last several games the officials have not been calling many holding calls on Auburn's opponents. See, the second point above is what make me wonder about the "conspiracy theories." How come Auburn is suddenly called for holding "coincidentally" when it is big momentum play for Auburn. I wouldn't mind the bogus holding calls so much if they were not on game changing plays. The fact that they call a bogus holding penalty on Auburn at opportune times makes me wonder.... How can an official 20 yards away be allowed to make a holding call?

I agree. What is a tackle anymore? A good clean hit? Who knows? It appears that SEC officiating is having a hard time calling consistently across the board, that is for sure. This targeting stuff is getting ridiculous...

Does Auburn not have an answer for the short quick passes? This is the second week in a row that the defense has gotten torched by quick short passes. Vanderbilt put 221 yards passing on this defense, that is the most they've had all season and since last season's opener. Chad Kelly set a school record against Auburn's defense. Will Auburn be able to stop the bleeding? I didn't see much of an adjustment Saturday.

You are right. I saw that too. Very frustrating.
