The biggest issue to me is the NCAA need full time refs that are under 1 umbrella, not some insurance salesman with a cool weekend gig. There is no way to institute quality control with 15 conferences doing 15 different things.
The duke game crew along with booth official suspended for 2 games. Basically they screwed that whole game up so bad they get a 2 week suspension.
I'm so surprised they got suspended *********************************Quote:

Think they missed the targeting call against TN last night too.
So let me see if i have your solution understood:
An effort to correct calls only works half the time. The solution is to have no corrected calls.
Not how id approach it, but ok.
Half the time they get it wrong.
It also means the initial call was right half the time. Tie.
Replay is rarely used effectively. I've seen more calls wrong on the field not get overturned by "sufficient video" evidence than the other way around. I think it's just another way for the refs to get an easy out and further influence the outcome of games. Look at the Bama game for us last year. The call on the field was ball down before the goal line. No "video evidence" actually proved the ball crossed the goal line. By rule definition the play should have stood as called on field common sense suggested that the ball most likely did cross the goal, but there was no "actual visual evidence". Refs made an arbitrary call and gave them a TD. There was another similar call a couple weeks back. The refs can easily influence /'d change the outcome of games more now, with replay, than before. Replay is ontended to get the call correct no matter what. They don't use it as intended and until you have a single group of people in a remote location reviewing calls from every game, the replay will continue to be a failure.Quote:

The NFL just missd one in the Dallas / Seattle game..
Clear he was short of the endzone..
And it's getting really old hearing the ex league officials that come on tv to do nothing but defend their guys...
Aikman calls out the officiating seems like every week....
And college officiating is getting basically comical...
And they just ****ed up again.... It's amazing
I thought UNM got hosed on that call before halftime as well, inadvertent whistle or not it looked like it was loose.
They blew whistle because they thought he was down.Quote:

If they rule it a fumble they also have to admit to an inadvertent whistle and lost TD which is the sin of all sins for refs.
