Face Mask No Call

Do you think it not possible that Vegas could be?
Serious question, I’m not trying to be a smart@$$.

There is zero chance that is happening.

fair enough.

How about make them full time with training and educate them with repercussions if you ***** suck at your job ? That would be a gigantic start

Or some attempt at uniformity in officiating would be nice.. I would argue many games this year would have turned out differently given what officiating crew shows up (not just us).. it’s starting to look really ridiculous with the inconsistency.. totally agree

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Ok guy im truly not a conspiracy type. Think most are bs. However the amount of money college football makes and the amout of people that bet on it is absolutely insane. I have watched officiating and game play as whole decline rapidly since covid. We had fixed games in pro sports and officials who knew how to sway a game and got away with it for a long ass time. To completely dismiss it is freaking stupid.

To make the statement you did about Vegas controlling things like its fact is beyond freaking stupid.

 

[Manning4ever]

How many NFL games come down to 3 points, even when there is a clear advantage of talent. Officials are the Nfls' way of keeping us watching. Why wouldn't the ncaa do the same.

 

[BigALWiLson]

I don’t know it to be true, I just don’t find your accusations to be as far fetched as others.

I dont know if it's true or not either. I hope it isn't because kids are being cheated if it is around the country in all sports. However a society and the amount of money that can be made from having a lack of integrity never shocks me anymore. Dirty refs have been a thing since the beginning when big money wasnt on theline. It is certainly interesting. I don't even think the government wants to dig into College athletics

The officiating is horrible in almost every game. Clemson Fl State was a mess. Game moves too fast. Not sure what anyone can do about it.

Well they have 8000 (yes, an exaggeration) cameras in 8K Ultra Hi Def at each game now, so those could potentially useful…

 

[ftsandersvol]

The refs hate us because we go so fast they actually need to be in shape to call our games.

Never underestimate the lure of easy money.

If you have the power and clout to control something like refs, the NCAA, Vegas, etc, and can do it by just a call here and there, so wide spread over refs across the country, while not being so obvious everyone can tell…if you’re that good…guess what? You can make a $&%# ton MORE money in a thousand different ways than that.

There’s a lot of conspiracy theories that have a lot of intriguing snipits to consider…this ain’t one.

This I agree with. The guy that was busted in the NBA swayed games and he was thought to be one of the best. Think Homeplate umps arent on the take ? Except now they are graded and can be challenged by computers. I am not suggesting that reviewing potential penalties needs to be a thing but at least reprimand those that are continually bad and remove them from the field of play permanently after so many.

I think it is obvious in some ways things are side ways in the way games are officiated. In all sports not just UT football. I also think it is more so in the college games. Specifically in games of interest. I just think it is crazy to completely rule it out

I don’t think it’s completely crazy.

However, I can’t see the NCAA being that stupid to let something like this go on behind the scenes but I’ve been wrong before.

If a NBA ref can fix games, it would be naive think it couldn’t happen in college football.

“Two years of reporting later, the story can now be told: This is the definitive account of how Tim Donaghy conspired to fix NBA games -- and how, in so doing, he unwittingly enriched an array of gamblers to the tune of likely hundreds of millions of dollars.”

If it isn't avove the NBA I certainly don't think the NCAA money grab sob's are of a higher standard. How long they been exploiting kids

TF ? No idea what that means

He’s mocking non-wokes…figures.

There would have to be too many people in on it. No way they could all keep their mouths shut and not spill the beans.

Who controls the British crown?
Who keeps the metric system down?
We do, we do!

Who holds back the electric car?
Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star?
We do, we do!

That's a good point but why is the pac 12 always in the playoff consideration every year. They beat nobody

[mpfvol]

Watching the SC MSST game SC is Holding like a MOFO and no calls why ? then a ticky tack hold they call

 

[Butch s]

I’m sure there are individual refs who would have money on certain games. Money is the root of all evils….and a little hole which may or may not have hair around it
