You missed a very blatant PI on Lafell in the end zone in the 1st half. Lafell was mugged by D. Irons in the wide open. The announcers even said that AU got away with obvious PI. Lafell should've chewed the ref out on the sidelines. There was very little emotions by Miles on some of these no calls and bad calls. He needs to go to bat for his team and chew a ref out occassionally. It was fun to watch Saban rip a new one on a ref. Plus it would funny to see CLM's veins in his head get big and pop that tight hat right off his head.:rofl: You guys are right. A game that has bad calls in it, usually affects both teams, but the no calls and bad calls all went against LSU. The PI called on LSU defense where LSU intercepted, I believe that was the right call. The contact was made prior to the interception therefore PI. They just didn't apply the same rule when it was the other way around, when Early had somebody humping his leg before the ball was tipped.
I have been never been more proud to be a Tiger- with such horrible calls and lulls in drives, we kept it as close as we did- and shut down their offense like we did. I was going to wear this green shirt home today if we lost, but instead I wore a backup LSU shirt I brought. GEAUX TIGERS!
What about the no-call with 30 seconds remaining in the 3rd period? Cox throws a very catchable ball to Taylor who gets mauled at the 5 yard line? .... ring any bells? Look, there's no doubt that the officiating was somewhat "hands-off." The officials were definitely letting them play. The officials could've called a ton more penalties against both teams, but they didn't. Did LSU have several that didn't go their way. Yup, they did. Did LSU have a few they benefitted from? Abso-freakin'-lutely. It's cool to be upset about it, and every cfb fan understands because we've all been on the receiving end before ........ and JMO, but being hypocritical about it isn't cool at all. LSU wasn't the only team that got a few raw calls.
Look, you guys won. Hats off to you. But when you have to defend the way your team won the game, then something is shady. It's nothing new. It always happens to us up there. There's no honor in a win like that (but there is in how you guys played the game), but it's not AU's fault that the officiating was inconsistent and one sided.
And I feel sure that if :helmet: had gotten the pass interference call and we had scored and won the game, the you guys would be over here complaining that we won because of that. I just think if Auburn had gotten the shaft like LSU! did, ya'll would feel the same way.
:geauxtige I completely agree with you about the "Blatently Bad" calls. What I can't understand is why didn't our coaches step up and stand up for our team??!! That's the biggest tragedy!
