Can you recall a worse officiated game?

Everybody across the nation thinks their officials are the worst. The mighty SEC had 2 games last week where huge calls cost South Carolina and Tennessee and the fans think it’s rigged to protect the highly ranked teams. One thing is certain. As an official you need to at least appear to be in command. Make the calls and move on. Keeping the pace and flow is as much a part as the calls.....the league will say these calls were technically right because of rule 758.3567yada yada yada......the refs look slow stupid and corrupt. Maybe the league could at least get them to make their awful calls quicker and more decisively. The ESPN halftime show literally started making fun of the refs haha

This. Wrong calls are one thing; they happen fairly often in every league at every level, but last nights crew looked incompetent and flat out lost at times. Officials will always miss calls, no matter what is done, but you just cannot field crews who clearly don’t know how to do their job. Last night’s officiating was a mess.

Yup, they were so lost.

That call in Sewell was insane. I lost it after that..

The epitome of being lost was when they initially said there were two penalties on the offense then, wait, it was on the defense. Never mind.

They basically let the WSU players on that play make that call on Sewell.

Clownzano...but...would encourage you all with time to write a quick note asking for more transparency in Pac-12 officiating. There were at LEAST 3 truly awful calls in that game that we need to know that yes, the conference knows those were incorrect.

So basically a whole lot of nothing. The fact both teams have reasons to complain while the conference and their officials side step the idea that they are incompetent when it comes to making consistent calls that are within the guidelines of the rules. The false start that the official seemed to listen to the WSU player is concerning. It gave the appearance that the player was allowed to influence the call. Most officials will listen but not give the impression that the player is influencing the decision. That was not the case with the penalty against Sewell. The instant replay showed was no movement by the offensive player. If anything was a slight movement of arm but not anything illegal according to the commentators.
