I swear many in our fanbase have such a victim mentality. I've cruised over to opponent's boards with some regularity over the years to see what they are saying and you won't find the level of pre-emptive conspiracy mongering we have anywhere else. BVS is real. Glad to see them proven wrong.I guess Sankey needs to do a better job in fixing games, lol. Go Vols
True, but if you Wade into gumpland forums today you'll see a lot of " we never get the calls at home" burn it down. The refs were in Tennessee pockets. The fix was in. They allowed Tennessee to play physical but called Bama on the same stuff.I swear many in our fanbase have such a victim mentality.

Yeah, everybody does the after the fact conspiracy mongering, we lead the league in the pre-emptive, before the fact worrying though.True, but if you Wade into gumpland forums today you'll see a lot of " we never get the calls at home" burn it down.

I actually think that Pat Adams called a fairly decent game for a change. Probably due to back channel chatter regarding his approaches with Barnes.can we finally stop all the conspiracy ref theories now, especially the ones regarding Pat Adams!
The A&M aftermath got the message to him. His demeanor with Barnes was very different last night. He knows what’s up.I actually think that Pat Adams called a fairly decent game for a change. Probably due to back channel chatter regarding his approaches with Barnes.
Did he miss calls last night, probably but all of them do. Sears layup at 1:17 ? left in the game Sears clearly steps out of bounds and not called. I am not sure Adams was there or not.
Does the league publish any kind of a post game listing of number of calls by each ref? Or, is there a running tally of calls through the season? Would be interesting to see how the calls balance out for ref to ref and by teams.

I was as concerned about Adams before the game like most of us. To give credit, I don’t recall any antics nor show boating from him last night although maybe I missed it. Didn’t agree with all his calls, but my impression from watching the game was Adams wasn’t any more noticeable than the other 2 guys. Maybe Barnes making an issue of his poor performance against us last game and the fact that we statistically loose at a much much higher rate with him officiating came to light and he was called on the table over it? Probably just wishful thinking on my part.Prime time on Saturday night on “the Flagship” with SEC title ramifications……he will be off the charts in “ass clown antics” tonight….
