Someone post the video (if possible)
I've always been skeptical of officiating, as I've heard stories of individuals receiving benefits for calls, this might be proof.

Certaining missed a safety call against FLSt. Their QB was clearly tackled in the end zone.
And it was reviewed and they still missed it - commentators confirmed they were mystified by the call after playing the replay repeatedly and said the ACC office has some explaining to do.

A horrendous call.
How Miami has now had 2 safety calls not called in their favor (when clearly they were both tackled in the end zone) is beyond any understanding. In addition the replay booth failed twice to offer an explanation to ABC is certainly a mystery.

That is as bad, if not worse, than the no-safety call on Klubnick. Have they changed the definition of what a safety is? Both seemed like obvious safeties to me. Ridiculous.
I don't believe games are fixed but I do believe certain teams are "preferred ".

Similar officiating "favor" in the NC-Duke game with what looks like an interception by Duke is not even reviewed by the officials and awarded to NC as a reception. Can't believe they did not even take a look at it.

Oh 100%. The conference, refs included, gets more money when they win championships so of course the games are as fixed as they can make them. Clemson got these calls left and right in ACC games the past 10 years, FSU seems to be taking the torch from them since they're the only contender this year.

Since they are "protecting" FSU for the playoff this year, maybe we get a decently called Clemson game in a couple of weeks
