Can we talk about what’s ACC/Refs beef with Miami

[goblin deez nuts]

I'd be interested to know the average penalties called against each of the teams we play, and compare their averages to the number of penalties called against them when they played us.

This was before yesterday. Miamis opponents 25 penalties. Next closest is 37. Avg is 52 so less than 50% for miamis opponents compared to other games. But those teams wreak havoc definitively compared to our passive approach. Those teams generate calls.

All their wives were on the 7th floor

Complaining about mistreatment from Jim Phillips, officials, the media, whoever is akin to getting distracted and taking your eye off the ball.

We need to focus on our coaches and our players

The ACC is getting its *** kissed by ESPN crews for allowing access to replay decisions. Very shrewd PR move. Unfortunately, no real scrutiny because replay has no role in holding, PI, tripping, etc.

Not even trying to be a wise guy: Other candidates

Me either, mi amigo.

The problem is the worthy replacements are — for the most part — not out there.

Older officials are cycling out, but fewer younger people are taking their place. The low pay at the high school level — a necessary farm system for college football — simply isn't worth the abuse from coaches, fans and social media to make it worthwhile

Listen, we’re trash with a trash HC.. yes. But what the **** is the real issue with us and the ACC refs? They make bad calls through out the league.. but something else is going on when it comes to UM games.

This is easily one of the worse no calls I’ve ever seen. You have the game announcers wondering.. and what seems like weekly asking wtf is going on too.

Dawson tried to end the MF’r right there.

Even though it was D holding, Don’t know if that was a good decision.
Given less than 2 minutes and 0 TO’s on the other side, we only needed the 7 yards to end it.

Indeed... Sounds like a big TIME issue for the powers that be, because refs will continue to be scrutinized more. They will HAVE to account for / justify / rationalize their collective actions. It's just a matter of time before fans begin demanding it. The alternative, for me, is to stop supporting...

I shell out thousands a season buying season tickets and traveling to watch college football (and hoops).

Knowing my team/s are getting ****ed down by the zebras doesn't sit well with me, because I don't gaf about them, and am not traveling to any venue to be entertained by them.

PIB don't like to play with his money (unless coke whores are involved, jk bahaha)...

This is wild. How have we had that few penalties called against our opponents???? 25? And the next closest is 37?

We cant ***** when theyre aggressive and then ***** when they go conservativel. We absolutely did what we needed to do, which is push the ball down field and score, not try and milk the clock while they have time outs.

My gripe, is on 2nd and 2 (or was it 2nd and 3?) SMU went into what looked like a cover 0. The play call was a screen that absolutely gets housed if we make 1 guy miss, and if he gets tackled for a loss, it puts us at 3rd and 5 so its not that huge of a risk...The issue was that they were in press coverage, which means THAT was the time to audible into a deep route and take a shot, cuz its still 3rd and 2 if you dont connect. You dont throw a screen into press coverage.

Agree.
I was going to say that.
My point was 2nd down was the time to do it, not third.

Coincidently, the “End this MF’er” play was on a 3rd and 7.

Refs don't even try to hide the **** anymore, many games are impacted with calls affecting outcomes, that's what happens when you legalize betting in sports.

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

Absolutely would have been a taunting penalty on a Miami player

Been done in other threads already. We get screwed the data is not even close.

Nah, was a good play. Lofton dropped the ball. Guy didn't go nuts id let that one slide too.

agree but we would have been flagged due to our "reputation". I'd argue this to the death.

 

[YourArsenal]

The ACC is incompetent, the SEC is criminal.

 

[ssvir]

No science here, but, it sure seems like 90+% of borderline calls that have a major impact on the flow, momentum, and outcome of the game go against us.

How many times, recently, have you seen a call in our favor and said to yourself, "wow we really got a good one there. That helped us (score, extend a drive, get a turnover that might not be legit etc.)?"

the two LVille roughing the passers were pretty favorable and questionable but we were repaid 10x with the Lightfoot roughing

 

[TheATLCane]

On Carson’s 2nd pick one of our WRs was tackled in the end zone before he threw the ball

 

[Umcanesfan74]

Yep nothing to see here on first TD run

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

If You don’t think Miami gets a taunting penalty for standing over a player, you’re crazy

I officiated HS football for 15yrs, gave it up 3 years ago. The **** people say to you is unimagineable. Especially LL football, forget about it.
