Keep it close but don’t change the outcome.

I can’t think of any other explanation.

That WAS PI on Richards. Egregious intentional grounding non-call. ‘Cuse never held?????

It's incidental contact when coming back to the ball. It was underthrown and the DB has every right to the ball. The grounding non call was terrible though, it looked like 3 yards short of the line of scrimmage.
 
Amherst,
I know you'll appreciate this: There was a study done on NCAA football officiating a while back. The results showed that the ACC was an anomaly of all the other Power 5 conferences in that in the ACC, the refs tended to be more strict on the teams that were the highest ranked, which the study noted was financially detrimental to the conference. The study's conclusion was that the ACC showed strong favoritism to the original ACC schools and against the schools that joined in the years after the conference was formed. (FSU and forward).


I have no idea who did the study or how to find it beyond a generic web search. Hopefully someone here can reference it.
 
or... It could be that our run defense kept their offense on the field because that was there only offense. There were a couple 3rd down and 8+ where they picked it up by running the ball when they were just trying to play for field position.
 
Did they drop perfect passes? Did they cross the 50 10+ times only to come away with 27? Did they mismanage the clock at the end of the game?
The refs blow but we fvcked that game up, not the refs

That’s all true but the refs were still bad. We can play poorly and the refs can still be ****. Those aren’t mutually exclusive. A couple plays that come straight to mind are the catch/fumble and the intentional grounding.

And my point is the refs wouldn't have mattered if we took care of our business. We should've been up 28 in the first half.
 
I'd love to see penalties against UM opponents when they play UM versus other games. It really feels like there are no penalties against our opponents when we play them.

And he was in the fūcking tackle box with no receiver nearby when he dumped it. The fūck?
 
Did you see the chop block on Homers TD run...I thought for sure they were going to call it..watch it again..the ref is seen and he looks like "I wanna call that"

Can you believe the number of hours that must have been spent on what is really just another useless study. It will be filed away somewhere and coun towards this guy's tenure requirements despite the lack of any practical benefit. Nobody is going to change officiating because of some study.

GT and Syracuse combined for 4 penalties against us. How is that even possible?
