Message: [QUOTE="BillSU, post: 4411465, member: 6809"] OK, My opinion is that this is not about conjecture, There is definitive information right in front of our eyes. 1.The no call is on the Ref which everyone has spoken about. In the case of GS the Ref isn’t looking at Shrader being hit OOB, he’s got his back to the play looking at the playing field effectively blind to something so important that should have been a penalty and effectively changing the momentum positively for us. 2.On the hit OOB on the Clemson QB, the Ref is looking directly at the action of Cundiff hitting the QB OOB with his shoulder and the QB is, as one post states, looks like a European soccer player trying to get a penalty called and a red card by play acting. I wrote a post on this right after the game called, “This is not a kind post but it’s reality”. It’s so obvious - but there is nothing we can do about it which makes it for me more emotionally draining. We had them, then we didn’t because of a Refs being blind to the play. A shame. But we have to let it go and move on to the next game. Three blind mice, three blind mice See how they run, see how they run They all ran after the farmer's wife She cut off their tails with a carving knife Did you ever see such a sight in your life as three blind mice? In this case, it’s one but let’s give it to three and sit them down and make them look at the play posted and call out the S.O.B. who didn’t call anything. Maybe he loses his job or just starts to cry because he was as stupid as some of our players who made really stupid mistakes. For the game, 10 penalties for 88 YDS! It would be wonderful if all REFS could be unbiased and get every call correct but that’s not going to happen and the amount of penalties created and called on SU could stop. But that’s probably not going to happen either. Maybe we could try, and Dino could lead the way on this to try and go just one game this season w/o a penalty or at least get it down to one or two. NAH, no penalties – we can do it, we can, I think we can, I think we can, I think we can. Like the little engine that could, maybe DB could have a recording of this playing all week during practices. This team, as we just saw, can do anything it thinks it can so let’s do it and go 11-1. [/QUOTE]
