    Typical SEC officiating. I don't understand why it was okay for Nix but not for CEH.

    I feel like there was some funny stuff, but then we got a few calls too.

    So you feel ok Nix was stopped, the whistle wasn't blown and then he was pushed in the back into the endzone by the running back?

    And ok with the"quicker" whistle on CEH since he was clearly still rustling around?

    I mean Nix was just stuck, he wasn't moving at all.

    I do think Brown was held on multiple occasions, one of them being the lone TD pass we threw.

    Seemed clear AU and LSU situation was different. There were things that bothered me much more.

    Ok so you're on record that Nix' momentum was indeed not stopped.

    His momentum was stopped at the 1 or so. I still do not believe he got in even with push. It was clear refs were guessing.

    The difference is that Nix’s momentum was stopped for a shorter time period. However, they shouldn’t have whistled CEH’s run. The refs cost us at least 10 points in this game.

    Edit: I can’t stress enough how bad the officials were in this game. Off the top of my head, they missed Stingley being down on the punt, a clear targeting call against Marshall on third down, an absolute phantom PI call on Stingley, and an atrocious late hit call on Atkins. With proper officiating, I think we win by 10+.
