What is the worst call you have ever seen??

I remember referee Al Matthews running down the field, doing the Gator chop, after that play.

Ok not really.

I think Fulmer directly handed them that game by kicking something like 5 red zone field goals, couple of which came when the offense was inside the 2 or 3 yard line. Just one touchdown out of all those opportunities would have rendered the Gafney catch meaningless.

Just 1 td and gaffney's catch would have tied the game. Just one time without points on those trips and Florida wouldnt have needed the refs to hand them the game. They could have kicked a chipshot field goal to win.

I just remember that game being so frustrating because it seemed like our offense spent the entire game camped out in the red zone and just kept kicking field goals. Also, didn't AJ Suggs throw a TERRIBLE pick six in the first half? The more I think about it, the more I'm surprised we even had the lead that late in the game to being with.

not college related but i'd say Brady's tuck rule invented just to beat oakland in the snowbowl in 2003 playoffs.

Agree times 100.

Honorable mention (from the same season): UT @ LSU. Refs' handling of the game at the end of regulation & in OT against LSU in Death Valley. Fans had stormed the field, tore down a goal post. OT had to be played at the other end of the field. The fans were removed from the playing field, but were still ringing the sidelines and the endzone where OT was played. Ridiculous.

When Seattle played Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl a few years ago, I thought the refs really screwed the Seahawks. The 40 yard touchown pass to Jackson where they called offensive pass interference was a horrible call and totally changed the game.

My first thought was the '00 UF game too, and the 5th down call was laughably idiotic.

Worst play call: every run play Spurrier called in his Swamp finale - 23 carries, 36 yards!

here is a visual...

1) take someone close to you
2) throw the ball at them as hard as you can
3) watch it bounce off of their chest and hit the ground.
and finally 4) proceed to do your TD dance because you just scored.

Also, I want to add the clock management by the Ref's in the USC-ND game where Leinart scored at the final second.

Complete BS.

One that hasn't been mentioned. Vince Young run and pitch in the BCS game where he pitched it from his knee on a 3rd and long that set-up the game winning TD.

I don't think that was the game winning touchdown. Might have been the first or second.

roughing the passer call against Fla in 06. The one where the pick 6 by Marvin mitchell was called back. Ref said QB was "slapped" more like touch on the helmet...BS

That's the rule. It was called correctly.

It's an ignorant rule but it is what it is.

That was very early in the game and he already had the first down when he pitched it.

The worst play call I have ever seen was at home against Notre Dame in 2004. Right before halftime we ran 2 straight running plays up the middle on 1st and 2nd down to run out the clock. Then, for some unknown reason we call a passing play on 3rd down, Ainge drops back, then drops back some more and gets speared into the ground for a sack and breaks his collarbone. I have never heard Neyland so quiet at halftime, I still to this day have no clue what Foolmer and Sanders were thinking...:confused:

I was sitting in the second row of the upper level looking straight down at play. No way in hell that was a catch.

Does anyone know the name of the ref that made that call?? I was told he was a Vandy grad.
