And it is laughable that Awbarn moved up on spot in the polls after another miracle win on the plains to a very poor team.

What do you think the boogs will name this win? I mean it's their new coaches first signature come from behind, miracle win. So they have to give it some stupid name. Awbarn has names for wins.....Bama just wins championships.

I must have watched a different play because the ball clearly went through his hands and hit the ground, then he fell on it. It WAS egregious.
Same here - don’t know what view Krazy saw, but the only one I saw was clear as day ; it was on the local news tonight. Clear space between player and ground, clearly see ball pass through his hands and hit the ground.

Arbuun is no stranger to controversy and payola. And it looks like business as usual at Aurbun even with the arrival of the new coach. Is it any surprise that Apple’s CEO is an Arbonne graduate?

Not hard to find the video. A simple Google search will turn it up.

I understand how they missed the call in real time. It happened fast. But it was reviewed, and what I don’t understand is how they missed on review.

The ball is clearly on the ground, outside the control of the receiver. No way it wasn’t clear and indisputable evidence of an incompletion.
Even the Auburn receiver acted surprised they called it complete. It was apparent he was starting back to previous LOS when the official came in to spot it as a catch.
It was obvious.

Let's see, to get hired as a SEC replay official one must obviously have an Auburn degree (middle or high school will do). No other way to explain how they keep getting every call to go their way week after week.

I've found it entertaining to read the Auburn boards over the past 24 hours. It is hilarious to see them defending an egregious call that helped enable them to beat Georgia... State! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Yes it was a terrible call but Georgia State has no one to blame but themselves. Up 24-12 at half, after a fairly decent drive their first possession on the second half, they went very conservative. It was like they decided 24 points would be enough to win it.
It was one of those things you could just sense. They had held Auburn and received a punt deep in their territory. I told my wife “Georgia State needs a couple of first downs to get some momentum going. They can’t play “exchange punts and play defense” with Auburn”.
When they wallowed around and went three and out I once again told my wife “Auburn is either going to block this punt or get a big return...”
But it shows you what a marginal team Auburn is though. That blocked punt should have propelled them to a couple of scoring drives and putting the game away, but it didn’t.
It took that final drive, subbing in your second string quarterback and a gift call from the SEC officials to pull it out.

Auburn has always gotten calls like this and will continue to. Replay in JH stadium is as useless as reply in baseball (the Braves get hosed 99% of the time in replay).

Oh well...
Water is wet.
Sky is blue.
Allbarn gets calls.

Probably at 35k or in an airport somewhere
I showed it to my wife without comment and she sees what I see.

The wrist you can spot right as he goes to the ground and it's near the front of the football, meaning his hand is under the ball (where it shows up when he rolls up, I also spotted what appears to be a finger under the other end of the ball a bit later in the replay). Now, it is reasonable to conclude that somewhere we can't actually see it his hand is no longer under the ball enough to count as a catch. I get why people would say they think it's not a catch, I just do not see any actual evidence to overturn it. It has to be evidence to overturn not presumption right? So, I get the angst because there's a decent chance it wasn't actually a catch, but I'm waiting for the screen grab or angle or something that actually shows he didn't make it.
How did IndyBison hack Krazy’s log in?

Which goes back to my earlier statement, when playing in JH never leave it close enough for the refs to take the game away from you.

Wow, man, a cow patty acid trip--

Question on Horsin' hearse'n out his WR coach yesterday: Why did his supposedly talented OC at Boise get relegated to coming along with him to Barney as an offensive intern (analyst) in the first place - Yella Fella a/k/a Acid Rane still calling the board length and "treated" lumber numbers down there...

Fans simply don’t understand that the official intended to hit the ball with his flag. Indy Bison would tell you there was a foreign substance on the ball causing it to rotate and spin improperly. This eagle eyed official was able to strike the ball with his flag, correcting the spin.

An official cannot be held responsible for the clumsy way the receiver attempted to field the punt afterwards.

We should be lauding this official instead of criticizing.

Give me ambiguity or give me something else.

Not too complicated. Analyst positions aren't just for rehab, they're also a form of between job holding pattern. Kiesau along with Harsin left late so he came to keep a foot in the door until a job came open.
