Lets talk about the refs

[CaneFanWNY]

These faquit refs are the sole reason that I couldn't give 2 ***** if anyone on these north Carolina teams were to somehow accidentally have their knee shoved up through their stomach when miami plays them.

I've never seen anything as blatant as this year's fck jobs from the refs.

The overturn on that Carter tip pick never gets made against anyone else ever because there was nothing conclusive. That's the definition of inconclusive.

They didn't even bother looking at that fumble Corn scooped up.

Teams have figured out how to stop our pass rush completely ever since the UNC game. Just go ahead and blatantly hold on every pass.

There was one play where McCloud blitzed and got hog-tied.

 

[The Franchise]

I was in the stands for the UNC game, and I never re-watched it even though I had recorded it (too painful).

But I remember one specific play, I believe it was in the first half, when a D lineman from Miami had beat his man and was headed towards the QB, and the UNC OLineman ran up behind him wrapped his arms around him, and tackled him to the ground. The hold was so obvious, it was easy to see from the stands. Holds, most times, you don't actually see them from the stands. This one was so obvious you could. Everyone around me was groaning. And they never even came close to calling that. It is the worst most obvious hold I've ever seen. I wonder if anybody else remembers that one

He lassoed him rodeo style, and the ref was staring right at the play.

Missed a targeting on Njoku in the 3rd quarter.

Its been this way since we joined the ACC. No ACC ref will call holding on any ACC team that UM is playing. They simply will not do it.


The tobacco road teams get preferential treatment in every single sport. Its beyond obvious.

Yep. We need to be prepared for it next week as well, doesn't matter that the game isn't at Duke at all.

UM

The replay officials can review that on their own too and stop the game from the booth. There were 3 replays showing direct launching head first at Njokeman's head and nothing.

I really just can't believe this aspect. This is the worst and most consistent holding I've ever seen. I mean, some of the plays look absurd. The Mccloud play was incredible.

the spot on the fake punt was brutal not even close even with review

Egregious. I hope UM is making a movie of all the missed holds and having a meeting with the ACC at the end of the season. They need to straighten that obvious bias out. It's completely negated our pass rush.

I can see missing an occasional hold or occasionally letting one go that has no impact on the play. But these dudes are staring right at blatant takedowns of pass rushers bearing down on the QB and letting it go.

They didn't have anything compelling to overturn that egregious error. Yet the overturned the Carter tip where it didn't meet the standard to overturn a call. Obvious bias.

 

[paksat]

time to tell the ACC to go take a ***ing hike

 

[AmenCanes]

Carter was out of bounds.

Never saw a slow mo replay of the strip, but think his knee was down.

I do think the fake punt was short, but no good angle for it to be overturned

AR did get mugged in the endzone. Should have been PI

The possible PI on Richards was iffy bc the DB definitely turned his head in time

 

[streetja]

If we haven't seen Richt blow up on ref this year I guess we never will. **** shame. When people are THAT bad at their job you have every right to chew em out.

 

[mirednmediocrity2]

Wish we never got involved with this chitkicker conference. They've always been like this and always will be. We need to absolutely pour it on DOOK from the first snap. Otherwise they will bury us in a blizzard of yellow flags all day long.

 

[Bennubird]

Agree with OP. Will only add that this is decades old now. We've had at least TWO national titles taken from us by officials - South Bend in '88 where "The goal line caused a fumble" and against OSU where the entire game we had either no calls or questionable calls, not just on the decisive pass break up. Last year at Duke, the Blue Devils moved the ball down the field 45 yards without completing a single successful pass attempt - all on back-to-back pass interference calls, and then their so-called TD was signaled by a line judge who couldn't even see the play because their were players blocking his view. Don't even get me started talking about how **** poor commentary is whenever we play.

 

[daddacane]

Jimmy had a quote about the refs back then. We gotta start putting these teams away early bc we're never going to get any breaks in the ACC. It's just to be expected. Not even worth complaining about anymore. We already know what it is.

Correction young Grasshopper...Jimmy coached our team when we were independents, on to the Big East...His commit was directed at the refs in South Bend, Ind,. before the Notre Dame game...The statement proved to be a revelation as refs took away Cleveland Gary's late touchdown fumble costing us the game, and me $100.00...

You can't mug a guy just because you turn your head.

I agree. It was close.

I would have been ****ed if we were on defense and it was called vs us

Please don't to include our last play of the game which gave us Victory and the Devils complaining about knees down lateral's and multiple block's in the back.... Watching the ref's sorting out that Duusey of a play, I felt sure they were gonna call that one back which would have given Duke the win....I still wonder if the ref's quit working when the clock hit ZERO or they just tried to even up the penalties...

Yep, that was it. Only thing missing was the chaps.
