SEC apologizes to Auburn

[mdluk1]

Does anyone think they would do the same for UK?

Officials missed another big call in the UF/Miami game by blowing a play dead too early. Didn't effect the outcome like the AU game, but was big at the time.

The play was clearly against the rules, so is there a penalty for OK?

 

[Los Gatos]

I definitely think the coaching staff should be given some penalty. They practiced and executed a play they knew (or should have known) that was against the rules. Any go away with it.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...apologize to UK football?

There was a similar play in a UK vs Vandy game early in the Stoops era. The only difference was Vandy lined up with 10 and then a receiver stepped in from the sideline. The play ran without him being covered for an easy score. The Oklahoma play was otherwise almost identical to that. Maybe the play was not illegal then. Who knows? but I'm more inclined to agree with @Chadrock
However Stoops was heavily criticized for not calling a TO.

What do you expect from SEC officials? None of them will be held accountable.

I know this was a rules thing but refs miss calls.

Iirc apology letters to uk used to be common. Never changed the L we took because of the incompetence, but we still got the letter.

Apologies are necessary in these situations but ultimately they do not amount to crap. You still had an all important W turned to an L wrongly and they aren't going to fix it.

I’m sure the apology letter made Auburn forget about the loss.

I remember we ran that same exact play at Florida in 2010. The color guy gave us a load of **** for that the rest of the game. Good times

Scew Auburn. Anybody remember our 2020 game at Auburn where just before halftime Rodriguez was two yards into the end zone and even after the replay they spotted it on the one? Terry Wilson then threw it into the hands of an AU CB who returned it 100 yds for a TD which swung the game. We never get favorable calls against the big guys in the SEC.
