What a major hose job on Texas.
They overturned it lol….how is that possible…it’s not reviewable…someone from the stands hand them a few bills hahaThat penalty on Texas was bullshit. Should have been a no call.
It’s the right call but I don’t think they can overturn it once it’s called unless it was a tipped ball or something to negate the PIThey did the right thing overturning that.
The officials can always get together to discuss and if necessary reverse a call. Penalty flags get picked up all the time.It’s the right call but I don’t think they can overturn it once it’s called unless it was a tipped ball or something to negate the PI
23-15 UGA ….now it’s becoming a reversal of their Alabama game haha
Plus it gives fans incentives to do such crap which they shouldn't
Yea I get that flags are picked up but I can’t remember a PI being overturned after called unless a tip ball was missed and another ref saw it.The officials can always get together to discuss and if necessary reverse a call. Penalty flags get picked up all the time.
But two things were different in this instance.
1) They had time to discuss the call at greater length because of the delay. The fans were rewarded for their terrible behavior. Bad precedent, as you point out.
2) During the delay, the play was being replayed continually on the stadium screens. Did the officials look? If so, did they violate the rules, because the PI call is not subject to video review?
It was often labeled as “scared” or “little brother syndrome” but uterus ran the SWC, ran the B12 and now horns down, like in the B12, an “unsportsmanlike” penalty…first ever team specific penalty in the SEC
“I have never seen that before,” Fox rules analyst Dean Blandino told The Athletic. “A flag has never been picked up before after that long of a delay. It does seem like replay got involved either from the stadium or the SEC command center. Purely speculation, but it is hard not to come to that conclusion.”
Smart addressed the incident, saying, “I will say that now you’ve set a precedent that if you throw a bunch of stuff on the field and endanger athletes, that you got a chance to get your call reversed. And that’s unfortunate because, to me, that’s dangerous.”
