Love hearing Ohio State...

complain about officials, especially since all the reviews were correct. Wonder if replay review would've helped us with the Porter travesty.

No doubt Clemson got all the breaks this game.

No doubt Clemson got all the breaks this game.

They were only breaks because they were called incorrectly on the field. Both reviews were so obvious, I don’t even know why there is controversy.

 

[Xander]

I wouldn't complain, who would want to play the buzz saw that is LSU?!

 

[TheEye]

Good.

 

[ShadowSpring]

They were obvious calls.

 

[Andrew]

The replays did go Clemson's way but that is because they were called wrong on the field. Ohio State lost because they couldn't convert in the red zone.

Love the suckeyes coach interview after the game. Would not come out and say the refs cost them the game, but made reference to plays not going their way.

 

[Dwinstitles]

U know what?

Don't leave the game in the hand of the officials then

 

[Unsider]

Just too bad there were no Porters in that officiating crew...

The targeting penalty strikes again. I despise that stupid penalty but I despise osu even more. Once again. That one lousy penalty affected the outcome of another football game. Worst rule ever but Iim glad it cost osu the game.



Go Canes!!!

Just spoke w some Clemson fans out here in Vegas and they said they’ve been telling all their OSU friends, Karma just came to collect on her check from 03. Lol

Ridiculous rule especially in application like that. At the very least make it judgment whether or not to disqualify the player, based on flagrant or intentional. That one was obviously not even in the same league as the Oklahoma player who launched himself toward the LSU running back, yet they were treated exactly the same. Ohio State lost a vital player.

The play late third quarter was clearly a catch. If that is not a catch then slow motion should never be used to evaluate a catch. It is a complete contradiction to how the same situation has been judged in prior bowls.

The calls and non-calls in the secondary also went in Clemson's favor all game.

Terry McAulay describes it perfectly, minus the anti-Ohio State bias that hilariously clouds everything here:

 

[svenben]

Change the rules if you dont like the results.. I hate the "football move" bs and targeting.. but refs have to call it per the rules.

 

[paksat]

bout time they felt like we do every single time we step on a football field

it's not so easy having to play against zebras is it?

 

[DerekDohrman]

the refs made the correct calls on the controversial plays so this was not karma for our 2002 season. that is still owed.

That PI call never would have made it past review.

The call was holding. Is holding reviewable?

Blaming refs is loser talk.
