OT: SEC officiating reared its ugly head in UGA/UT game

[18IsTheMan]

Have read a lot from various outlets how the SEC and ESPN seemed to have a clear agenda in this game.

Someone put together a compilation of all the bad calls that went in UGA's favor. Didn't watch them all, but how in the world was this not a fumble? Catches the ball, secures it, takes 2 steps, then the ball gets knocked out. It wasn't even reviewed, which seems odd to me. It's certainly close enough that I think a review would have been warranted. Even live speed, it looks clearly like a fumble.

SEC officiating is unprofessional and that's giving them a compliment.

Never seen a call against TN that I have disagreed with.

Just my opinion here but - that's not a fumble. The process, in order, - you have to catch it, you have to secure it, and then take steps or make a football move....

In the video, he didn't FINISH the process of securing it... but it was bigly close. Also, I hate TN. With a passion. I hate bad calls worse though. It was close though.

Yeah, that's what announcer said. It sure looks secure enough to me. I mean he had it tucked up against his body and had take one full step.

I try to look at calls as "how would I feel if that was call was made against us".

He possessed it unconvincingly.

I don’t blame the refs. It was clear that the SEC is trying to do whatever it takes to get the most amount of teams in. The refs are getting a bad rep for it though. It’s 100% Greg Sanky

My apologies, they are professional goons hired by the SEC to do their dirty work.
