How Will the Refs Screw Us This Week?

[Tennman]

I'm bringing my mustard in case it's needed.

It will

We know it's going to happen, but how?

From behind

Didn’t read through this thread, but I’d bet my salary that Tyler Baron gets held with no call. Happens EVERY game, multiple time.

 

[EastTNVol6240]

They wont have to. Our team is soft and will fold.

 

[vols 30]

It has to be exhausting being like this

You do realize UT has never lost a game without the Refs helping the other team.

There is no way the other team is just better

They wouldn’t be better if the referees didn’t make them better. It’s all the referees, ESPN, and that darn Gary Danielson. And Joe Milton, of course. Mostly the referees though.

They want UGA undefeated going into the SEC title game...Ratings galore...I feel a serious screw job coming...Let's hope not but it appears too obvious.

We need to retain a law firm to constantly be dropping law suits on the officials. In every sport. We should own property in Birmingham with all the absolutely screw jobs we’ve experienced.

lol. And the excuse makers are already out. Every single week. Pathetic. Some of you need to get a grip.

Yeah clearly that’s what’s going on. It’s not that UGA is a better team with vastly more talent at virtually every position. Nah. It’s not that they have a better offense and defense. Nah. It’s because the cabal against TN exists. Sanjay had already held a meeting and stated that UGA will win regardless.

That makes total sense.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

The refs are the least of our concerns.

Oh no you don’t get it. The only reason we ever lose a game is because Sankey deemed that the refs have to screw us over. We are actually the best team in the SEC it’s just that Sankey don’t want us to be.

Every fan base does this. The GA fan base does it just as bad. Fortunately we haven’t needed excuses for awhile but it’s coming sooner or later. You can bet if we blow today’s game it won’t be bc the Vols beat us, it will be the cheating refs or somehow the Vols cheated etc…

I actually do agree with the not calling holding on the line though. It happens to every single team though, we just notice it against our own team. I’ve been told by coaches that if they were to call every hold we would hardly ever have a play.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

I believe we should worry about our offense, defense, and coach play calling before the refs.

 

[SATX VOL]

probably all of the above. I hope we make it close enough to where they have to do something. If it’s close, the flags will start flying against us. Believe that. Or they won’t cause it really doesn’t matter at this point. Maybe they flag Georgia all game to make us shut up. Btw, never shut up about the officiating against us this year. We need pod casts, Tik toks, blogs, etc going out constantly about this.

 

[VOLINVONORE]

I hate to say this, but, we have been guilty on almost all the penalties we have received, especially those on the offensive line. However, seldom do the Refs call the offensives made by our opponents call them for the same foul. Hopefully that will change with this being a home game.

Serious question... who else knew as soon as you saw the flag after the INT, that it would be taken away?

I was waiting on the flag. Wasn't surprised. I think it was a cheeky call.

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

I did. Because it was in the area of defensive holding. And it was the right call. Quit crying about the refs and start blaming the players that can't stop grabbing jerseys when it's not even necessary.

In this case he was holding but I absolutely knew it. For a split second when I saw their lineman down I thought it was a blind side block.

Immediate thought was that they were pulling something. Happens way too often this season at home

 

[Remy]

Taking that INT from us on a phantom defensive holding call good enough for you?

 

[wrharvey21]

I did. I said out loud as soon as it picked. "Here comes a flag"

Then top it off the flag came after the pick occurred and was in the process of being returned and it was supposedly for a penalty that occurred before the throw even. Yea, right

WR made plenty of contact too. No way that gets called on the team with red helmets
