College refs suck even non ACC refs

[CDWright40]

We have gotten screwed pretty hard a few times recently and it feels like the world is out to get our Canes. I think the reality is that college refs are just wildly incompetent.

We are going to get screwed out of 2 or 3 calls a game. I am used to that and have accepted it. What I cannot accept is reviewing a play with clear video evidence that seems to never go our way. That is inexcusable.

Houston got screwed a couple times against UT this past weekend also

Refs are definitely ******, they need less old ***** (like the government). However, Miami still gets intentionally ****ed way more than most though imo.

They been bad.. but since the rise of online/app sports gambling it seems to have gotten beyond bad.. like unexplainable bad.

No doubt being done purposely.

I doubt it. Can it be happening? Sure but on a very small scale and not near as often as you think.

That’s the funny thing about incompetence combined with positions of power.

You see the **** people do and you go “this mother ****** is doing this on purpose!”

Meanwhile they’re just stubborn, stupid, and extremely incompetent.

It's a Miami thing

I would agree if it wasn’t for the fact these ****ers actually review these bad calls.. there is absolutely no way they just forgot the rules during a replay review.

You know **** well these dudes have accounts at fan duel. These dudes are all about getting paid.

That called back punt return TD in the Iowa game was as bad as it gets. Not bc they got it wrong, they actually got it right by the letter of the law. But bc it is NEVER called that way. It proved 99% of referees don’t know the rule.

Holy smokes that call is bad lmao.

This is where I'm at. I get that doing a ref's job is hard. Fast athletes and things moving quickly. But if you ***** up a call on review, that's inexcusable. I feel like we've objectively been screwed twice this year in that situation (the Chaney fumble and the non-safety).

 

[Phydeaux]

That was agregious and seriously a game changer. They REFUSED to review as well

And those were both high stakes calls. One cost us a win for sure. The second potentially could have cost us a game. So these are just run of the mill calls that had a small impact on the game.

I bet it’s lucrative to be on a CFB officiating crew…especially in the ACC.

Look up "safety" in the dictionary and you'll see this picture:

Has the ACC commented on this? I don't expect much, but...

What was so bothersome to me was, had the refs moved the ball to the 1 inch line, I would have at least felt that there was real consideration given to proper placement of the ball. Had that been the decision, I could have lived with it. But not only did they not call it a safety, the ball spot at the 1.5 yard line was maintained. There's no sense in official review if you can't acknowledge a mistake.

 

[SFbayCane]

From what Ive seen, the SEC has the best officiating of any conference.

I'd luv to see numbers but I suspect there are less targeting calls in the SEC than any other conference.

Tim Donaghy essentially proved that refs have tremendous power over the game to the point where the total outgame of games or the point swing of games can be easily controlled and manipulated.
