Every MISSED Hold on James Pearce in SEC Play 2024

[jasonvol18]

Good Lord..Some of our fans sound like damn whiney ass Alabama fans. They are still bitching about the refs from 22 and now this year. EVERY Oline has guys that hold 80% of the time. Ours do it all the time too. If they were to call all the Oline Holding, these games would take 6 hours to play. I'm quite sure a tape could be made on our Oline too.

Oh, but I was just told not too long ago by some know it alls on here that refs didn't have any impact on games, so I should stop being a crazy conspiracy theorist. Dumb asses. Thank you to whoever made this video.

On the last one: Block in the back is legal when players start on the line of scrimmage and remain in that area. Rule 2-17-3.

How far are we making this imaginary area? Because he was 7 yards deep behind the line of scrimmage.

Man that Arky game was so bad it looked fixed. I hope this video makes the rounds in the right circles.

The Arky game was crazy. Look at about the 3:00 min mark in the video. The blatant nature, out in the open, with the ref looking directly at it.

I would like all the official loverboys on here to explain that one. That is not incompetence, that is flat out intentionally not throwing the flag.

Has Heupel sent the freakin tape to the sec office yet. He gets held 2-3 times a game terribly without a call. It’s freakin ridiculous. But Sankey talks about how great the officials are. I realize they are going miss some but they seem to miss the big ones and call the trivial ones.

 

[UT97Vol]

It’s stunning how few holding calls against our DL have actually been called vs the number of times we’ve been called for it.

That was the most egregious along with the OU facemask. The RB for Arky just grabbed jersey and held on for life once he was past him. You could literally see his pads he pulled it back so far.

So you're saying the refs pick and choose which holding calls to make based on game length?

I don’t make the rules.

 

[Will74]

Great video .i think you can add illegal hands to the face in a couple of those

 

[VolPack22]

I don’t make the rules.

Well what you posted is the rule and it says “within that area.” Idk what universe they are from but 20 feet away is not in the line of scrimmage area. If illegal downfield is past 2-5 yards then block in the back sure as hell should be seen by that same guideline. I wish they could give coaches 2 challenges in a game and they could be used for any call, any time during the game. Doesn’t matter about judgement call or not. Because several times an official’s judgement is wrong.

I’m sure glad we have people like you and @CAVPUT on here who love UT so much that you can’t wait to degrade and belittle your fellow fans or crap on our players at every opportunity.

By the way, Prince Fant got tackled while the ball was still ten feet away on that PI in ‘22. So you and your Bammer buddies can get over it.

 

[SprocketRocket]

They say you could call holding on every play. I'm sure Pearce would agree.

 

[NetworkVol]

I love how he doesn't whine and complain after he's getting held. He just plays the next play knowing they can't stop him and he knows the nfl sees it too. Pearce is ridiculously good.... like von Miller good.

 

[Flipdaddy]

2023 Alabama game was a joke. Alabama held on every other play.

 

[Other_Guy]

I'll be honest, only watching OU and Arky, there's only like 2x I'd throw the flag or even see a hold. Also there's no reason for multiple slow mo I'm not watching the full 8 mins when it could've been 4

 

[Jackcrevol]

The play versus Arkansas would have resulted in a massive loss of yards.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

I'm showing these to my dog.

 

[Sarms58]

You could probably compile a similar list for just about every really good defensive end. I want those 8 minutes of my life back.

Yes…and that leads to a better understanding of the problem. If you just look at our player(s) it’s easy to get a persecution complex but the bigger picture is that the refs can’t see much because the game moves to fast for them. Officiating needs to look at how they can improve - probably by employing technology - their ability to see what’s going on…we the fans can watch every play from multiple angles in slow motion so we have a better view than the officials on many plays.
