Today we get an SEC win - Moo State comes to Arkansas GAME THREAD

[Lurk]

As usual, the SEC should have done something about this prick before now. Jeff Heaser was a bust in the ACC so the SEC picked him up

So ACC makes the transparency move to put mics and cameras in the review booth, and they have to fire this guy because they know  he'll be exposed... so the SEC hires him and gives him an Arkansas game.

That article is EXTREMELY horribly written.

I'm in favor of giving Petrino a shot but nothing that says we can't move on after 3 years. We cannot judge him too harshly for this mess and despite not winning games, we have improved.

I just don't care.  I love BP and he would do well.  But whatever.  No need to lose sleep, it's just Arkansas football.

I mean it's a small state and obviously I'm around a lot of people that are glued in. Petrino was never near the top of the list and it's bizarre how many here assumed he was.

And if you're wrong, and he gets the job, what will your excuse be then? Are you gonna claim you were "just kidding" again?

This is where I'm at.  A vast majority of the fans and the administration are retarded. 

Making the right hire? It's just a bullshit idea.  So you go on and hire someone, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a shit.

If HY doesn't put out a statement on the officials, fine or no fine, then he can get fucked too.  He needs to protect his coach and I get Petrino not saying anything more, but HY needs to step up and light the SEC up, in public, for this bullshit.  That is HIS job to protect his coaches when they get fucked by the SEC.

[BleedinRed]

Auburn AD had no problem addressing it last week.  

[The Whyte Boar]

You don't expect HY to care enough about Arkansas football to go out on a limb do you?

HY is a pussy fuck. What, he thinks the SEC might fuck us? They can't do much more than than already have. He should go scorched earth. Talk about the Auburn grounding, talk about the Florida game. IF he did, it actually might make me donate $$.

I do wonder if the state troopers helped those officials exit the state preferably via bubba's trunk. 

[Lurk]

If they don't fire that crew at the very least, that's another sign of weakness of our AD. I would stir things up until that happened. He won't though.

I keep expecting big conspiracy charges related to college sports like they've had in the NBA. All across college football, referees are making enough game changing errors that it looks like corruption. We seem to be the refs favorite butt boy though.

[Piggielicious]

I drove 6 hours to watch the SEC once again screw our football team for the sake of money.

It was surreal to watch in real time. I will probably never witness another game like this one where the crowd basically boos the refs for an entire quarter, but they deserved it.

[HOGSRUNWILD]

There was zero.zero chance it wasn't cheating done to determine the outcome of the game.  Was it done for spite, was it done for financial gain, was it done for some team bias?  I don't know, but it was done and it was done to determine the outcome of the game.  No sane person can dispute that.  The refs cheated, blatantly and out in the open and not a fucking thing will be done about it most likely. 

I hope those motherfuckers die in a fire, literally.  There is nothing worse than a cheat.  They cheated the players, they cheated the fans and they cheated the game of football.  Fuck them, I hope it is painful and I hope they suffer.

[Natty_Ice]

The fact that they did it on our home field just shows the level of respect they have for us in Birmingham.

[AporkalypseNow]

"Pecking order" doesn't necessarily mean what you think, we will take a chance on some coaches others won't (like Franklin if VT doesn't have him)

We also have two important things coaches want: we will give them TIME and reasonable EXPECTATIONS - this is why Auburn has been a shitshow forever

What nobody seems to know about is money, I really feel like our big boosters haven't been willing to spend big on football.  Somebody has to step up.  Even little old Texas Tech can kill it with the right boosters in the NIL era.

18 penalties to 4. If it were basketball, we would be saying the same thing. It was blatant and even got worse after the penalty on BP.

Hoping aareferee will comment on the calls.

I'd specifically like to get his opinion on the roughing the passer call on Rhodes when Shapen went out of the game. 

It seemed to me like there was no way for Rhodes to pull up, and that the only way for him to avoid the penalty was to quit on the play before it was over.  There was a similar sack in the Tennessee / OU game and of course no flag was thrown.  Nor did the announcers go on and on about how it was the right call. 

Also the PI in the end zone on the pass that nearly made it to the seats.  Trevon Brazile would have had a hard time catching that ball in bounds if he had started the play standing in the back of the end zone with no defender near him.  If anything should have been called it seems like defensive holding would have made more sense.   Instead of 1st and Goal at the 2 it would've been a ten yard mark off.
