Thank you, Big-1 official. What are players supposed to do, be Buddha and meditate on the spot after making a play?

Can't do a Buddha move either spiller got yelled at for a bow

The refs also gave spiller some crap for his completely benign TD celebration he's been doing all year with the chest sweep and pray thing. If you watch after the first TD the ref runs right up to him to say some crap and after the second TD you can see Spiller basically motioning/saying "I'm not doing anything"

Basically the refs sucked

I commented last night that he made zero taunting motions towards UNC, and made the arm pump in a "Let's go!" motion. He merely added an f-bomb, how in the hell is that taunting?

Under those circumstances, good add if you ask me.

That's nothing new, college refs have been doing that for some time. They always run to whoever just scored and keep them under control.
And after the Tulsa/ Miss state brawl you had to know they were going to be very tight on that matter.

Mack butters up the refs almost as good as he butters his teeth.

Yet nadda chirp when UNC did similar things. What about the dude that did the "thumbs down" after he scored a TD. Wasn't that taunting too?

I love how ESPN didn't even deign to show a good angle of what he supposedly even did.

I understand keeping things under control, but if you (refs) are going to nitpick, hold both teams to the same standard.

Where were the officials from? They should never be allowed to officiate any of our future games.

Big 10 is going to quickly turn into the Big 12 if they keep slobbing Ohio State's knob like the Big 12 does with Texas.

Exactly and we haven't even gotten to the bull**** "throwing your weight around" flag or the fact that unc was holding the entire game and never flagged while we had some crucial holding penalties called on us

They showed a full replay with the fist pump. Thing is, that was IT! I don't think there was any more to show!

I imagine the referees were on high alert, considering all of the jackassery that went on in the Tulsa-MSU game and in the other games earlier in the day. For what ever reason, bowl games were much more chippy this year than in years past. My guess is their intent (right or wrong) was to keep the game from getting out of hand like the other bowl games did.

But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

I hate stupid fouls but that call looked totally bogus to me. Nothing wrong with players showing some emotion after a big play. It's not like he threw an opponents shoe.

I've never understood the expectation that players show no emotion after a play. We're not Vulcans.

That call was almost as bad as when Brown was flagged for "putting his weight into the qb".. When it was a unc offensive lineman pushing him into Howell...

Oh and ZERO holding calls on unc- facing one of the top dlines in the country.

How about the no call when Smith got boat rocked coming across the middle early in the first? Horrible!!

Yeah, it was quick but it looked like he was maybe 10 yds in bounds, so not directly in front of their bench.
I figured he must have used profanity for that little display to get a penalty.

The refs were garbage last night. Good on the team for overcoming it.

Possible the ref heard n***a rather than the "-ing go" ? The former is a nono word.
What?

Is it even possible to mix up those two?

Leon taunting
Lecture to Spiller after TD
Body weight on QB ruffing
Pancake block flagged for holding

This crew was biased AF.

Unsportsmanlike on O'Neil

Roughing the Passer on Bobby

Even the LSU fans I was around today were saying the same.

And now you know why Indiana was willing to allow OSU to be gifted the CCG.

The Big-1 conference.


Indiana was so willing they covered the B1G patch on their uniform yesterday with the bowl patch. They are not happy. Barry Alvarez from Whisky pushed this.
Maroon and White always! EKU/TAMU

The holding call on the pancake block has not been discussed enough! That was a horrible call! If you get trucked because you suck, that is not holding!!!

It's just the Namaste move that Adrian Foster used to do.
