Lol, did you read the article?
Referee Marc Curles' crew called a personal foul on Arkansas defensive lineman Malcolm Sheppard in the fourth quarter as the Gators were rallying for a 23-20 victory. The league said there was no video evidence to support the call.
The call you think you've explained away is the call the SEC office cited as the reason for the suspensions. You need to get in touch with the SEC officials and tell them they are pretending, and don't understand the rules.
Do you understand a single thing about bureaucracy? Have you ever heard of Public Choice economics? I didn’t think so.
We “official quotations” the end all of anything, then opinion boards like this would shutdown. We could just read how things really are from press releases from the Obama administration and that would be that. It is amazing someone could be so dense as to quote the official statement concering something people are discussing. Get real.
Lol, what nonsense. Now bad calls in football games are due to bureaucracy. You look more ridiculous with each attempt to explain away blatantly obvious poor officiating. The only real question is whether it was incompetence or deliberate. And there were three bad calls, not one.
Whatever the reason, the SEC bureaucracy should have banned this crew once and for all, or the members responsible for those calls.
So the answer is no, yet you continue to babble about that which you admit you know nothing?
More nonsense from you. The answer is that the SEC office is very reluctant to publicly reprimand SEC officials, thereby publicly acknowledging officiating mistakes. But they had no choice with this crew, since it made the bad call in the Georgia/LSU game, then followed that up with three bad calls in the Arkansas/Florida game.
The real answer is, those mistakes were obvious to almost everyone.
You are getting closer to understanding as in THE call in the LSU-UGa game. BTW, as I pointed out in another post, game day took the late hit call apart and agreed with my analysis. The NCAA has asked officials to make that call and now the SEC suspends them for doing so.
And of course you homer there were not three bad calls in the UF-UAR game. There was maybe 20 [including one that cost UF a turnover] as in every game or if you mean the ones you homers are crying like little girls about, there was .5 or a half bad call.
A typical, but pathetic attempt to dissemble. That old "umpteen bad calls in every game" and "you could call holding on every play" are real favorites of those trying to excuse obvious bad calls.
Reality: THREE bad calls in the final six or eight minutes that helped Florida win. Probably unprecedented, so many in so short a time.
ESPN Game Day as some sort of authoritative source??? You must be joking.
Not authoritative, but not a homer source like you. Odd that non-homers see why the official made that call, but you can homer girl.
You discredit yourself more every time you post. I've no connection with Arkansas or Florida. Just watched the game and didn't care who won. But I did want to see a game decided the by teams and not the officials.
You'd sound more credible if you didn't just make stuff up.
And while you’re blathering about what the NCAA wants. One thing they, and no college sports organization wants, is to see games decided by officials. All organizations prefer good judgment and no calls except the obvious infractions, especially late in a game. They got the opposite in Arkansas vs. Florida. That sort of officiating is one way to seriously damage college football.
It’s about time this crap gets straightened out!
Happens way too often. (several times tonight in the Eagles-Redskins game, the officials tried to ‘help’ the skins - I’m no fan of either team)
You are a homer, I don’t know why or care why. Your team lost again to Mississippi last week, why haven’t you moved your crying on to that?
Lol, you got the you don't know part right. You just make up whatever you think will help your weak arguments. I am an alumnus of an SEC school, but not Arkansas and not Florida.
