We didn’t just play Ole Miss—we also had to fight through our own mistakes and the officiating.

[TboneJones]

That game was not evenly officiated. Refs tried to ***** us.

 

[Canesince85ND587]

Refs were ******* bad....but if we don't play like **** , 2 possession win

 

[Handsome Squidbum]

******** on ESPN claiming we got away with PI at the end

 

[CorniceCane]

Big 10 refs didn’t want Miami playing against Indiana or Oregon. Trying their best to get Ole Miss in. Crazy. What a conflict of interest. I can’t believe that they didn’t think that one through.

 

[RF-4CCane]

I said twice before the game that the Big 10 would do this **** to give them an easier team

Yup. Refs did us no favors. But some of those penalties were just plain dumb mistakes. Add that to multiple dropped interceptions, and it's tough to put a team away. We missed a kick too, which maybe wasn't the right decision. But we overcame all those mistakes somehow and now we play for the natty... in our home ******* stadium! Let's ******* go!

 

[SayWhat]

I didn't mind the calls they made on us so much minus the Bauman hold where his defender was all up on his face mask, but ****, call it even. The officiating was straight up armed robbery until they called a few late.

 

[Handsome Squidbum]

They have to reverse that targeting post game.

 

[mosthated305]

And one bad call not only kept them in the game but it will have an impact on the next game since Lucas will be out in the 1st half of the title game after the worst targeting call I've ever seen.

 

[Manfred_Cane]

Great teams overcome the refs

 

[ristwasdown]

We will get the sec squad from the OSU game in the NC

Miami was clearly so much more talented. It was so close to being a blowout.

 

[smack99]

I mean a lot of the penalties were legit penalties though…. The targeting was bull**** for sure. The Blay late hit, the pre snap penalties were all legit calls. We reverted back to mid season form tonight with our discipline.

 

[RF-4CCane]

There was absolutely no reason for Big 10 refs to be calling this game with the Big 12 being neutral and Arizona being Big 12 territory. Total setup on purpose and we still persevered.

 

[CanesLifer2]

They have to reverse that targeting post game.

That would be massive

 

[MarkyMark]

It’s always great when we can win and play like ****. Lots to clean up and we know the guys can do it. As it has been said, even with the horrible refs, we could have won this game by 20 if we play halfway better. Get healthy, get our heads right, and end it on top!

 

[BeastMode]

And one bad call not only kept them in the game but it will have an impact on the next game since Lucas will be out in the 1st half of the title game after the worst targeting call I've ever seen.

Yeah that was a pathetic call in a game like this and ***** *** ref working for ESPN got the call to back the refs on air. Completely rigged **** them all

 

[SayWhat]

And one bad call not only kept them in the game but it will have an impact on the next game since Lucas will be out in the 1st half of the title game after the worst targeting call I've ever seen.

Cot ****, if that was targeting, WTF was the hit on Toney?

 

[RF-4CCane]

The pre snap penalties were on us, but Ole **** was holding like a ****.
But compare the two targeting calls. One was text book, the other bull****.

 

[astabooty]

Refs aside, we have 4 chances to intercept the ball and dropped all of them. Then Anez with the penalities, Blay with the late hit. Could have been a big win if we executed better.
