"What are you talking about? That call may have been questionable but it was a close one indeed."

What are you talking about? Every commentator that looked at it said it was a horrible call.

Yeah? Read Meisel's column on ESPN and the commentary from other commentators. In fact, you might want to read the LSU head coach's interview - he doesn't blame this call for losing the game (even though you all are trying desperately). It was a close call and was reversed by the refs because they were not sure.

I know LSU fans will use the call as an excuse for their defeat in an excellent defensive slugfest. That said, don't blame one call for your loss. Auburn was the recipient of some horrible calls too (especially C Taylor's reception late in the 4th quarter).

Good luck next time we meet.

Sure, it was a close one...except that it was reviewed, and obvious on review that the hit was before the pass. That is why I'm angry--because everyone watching TV knew the call should have been, and then to add insult to injury THEY WAVED OFF THE FLAG!

Sad officiating. Just sad. The NCAA should be doing something about a day like yesterday.
