Was there any doubt that the officials were for Florida State?

    How pro-Seminoles was that officiating crew today? Of course, it was an ACC crew...

    It was pretty pitiful, of course they is never any true accountability for those calls.

    Yeah, I agree with ya'll. Whoever FlaSt. plays is who the refs are always against! It's not right but it's because they are FLORIDA STATE!

    That was hands down the worst officiating I have ever witnessed. It really felt like the "fix" was in.

    The quality of officiating was way down in the SEC this year, but that ACC crew at UF/FSU was truly wretched. Florida got screwed.

    I've seen little evidence in the SEC for crooked officiating, but there are many more bad calls this year, it seems. Too many to be comfortable with and just say "that's the breaks." I seriously hope the SEC referees do some real uprading of their capabilities before next year. There needs to be some turnover, perhaps or maybe just some new policies.

    They will never make the way they grade referees public, but I surely hope it helps them to aggressively weed out those refs who are blowing too many calls.

    I have never in my life seen such a bias officiating crew.....not even at Saints' games! And that's bad! I just don't understand how Bobby and his boys, along with their fans, can walk around with their head up high.

    In my eyes, Florida definately won that game.

    But who cares......our Tigers are gonna whoop some pup @ss!!!

    On SEC refereeing. On Finebaum

    show it was discussed. In old days, guys had to prove themselves before being selected by SEC and gave better guys. New system is based upon who you know and has caused it to go down.

    From ESPN. The three examples were pretty obvious watching them on TV first time around. I like the confidence from the ACC as well.

    The ACC officials needed a Police escort to get out of the Swamp Saturday!
