    Exactly. That was not taunting and it was not egregious. Just another example of trigger happy SEC refs using poor judgement because they want to throw their flags. Of course, the league office will back them up, but as the rule is written (egregious being the key word), it was not a penalty.


    It will be like that BS penalty on the extra point that we got robbed on at AU. It has not been called before and will never be called again. I bet we have the sole distinction of having 2 penalties called on us that fall into that category.

    Shoot! Will Wing have to ask permission to enter the end zone next time?

    OK rule with a half-a**ed interpretation!

    it from all appearances was a horse collar

    upon closer inspection, he only grabbed the top of the jersey (only because he wasn't able to get his hand inside the shoulder pads I can assure you)

    that kid is junk, trust me

    but Florida has a system in place to get trashy players on their team, so no big deal, get rid of one, they'll find plenty others to play for this team

    This called pissed me off to the point that I couldn't talk or think straight. There is taunting on every play, honey badger taunts all the gd time, to call it on that momentary and relatively minor lapse is horse crap.

    No he wasn't. He didn't use his arms to point at another player and it wasn't excessive. It's a judgement call by the officials and as usual, it mistakenly went against us.

    correct again

    all he did was look back, it just so happened it was at the same point he was motioning his arms out like he was going to score

    Better watch ourselves in the next games... we now have another target on our backs :p ... we are now the Tenacious Taunting Tigers!

    I'm cowering in a corner at the thought of the officials that will be used in the Bama game.
