money on the game.They missed at least a dozen blatant holding calls. #55 was mauled and pulled down all game yet no calls. This crew was horrible.
Michael Bruntz@michaelbruntz 30m30 minutes ago1 flag for ten yards, checked the box.
Same crew that did the Iowa/NW game?
Indiana did get flagged at least once that I remember...
Was also blown away that our defensive tackle was called for defensive holding... never ever seen that before.
About as lame as calling grounding when foster almost caught it. Lol..idiotsThe most ridiculous penalty call I have ever witnessed.
We got called on an absolute BS hold that led to that blocked punt too but the worst by far was they called defensive holding on Maurice, on a running play!The offensive PI on us was a joke. And it was criminal they didn't flag the IU CB on that second down inside the 5 before the blocked kick...he held down one of Morgan's arms
According to Section 3, Article 4, Paragraph d. - Defensive players may not use hands and arms to tackle, hold or otherwise illegally obstruct an opponent other than a runner.The most ridiculous penalty call I have ever witnessed.
By that definition blocking is a penalty.According to Section 3, Article 4, Paragraph d. - Defensive players may not use hands and arms to tackle, hold or otherwise illegally obstruct an opponent other than a runner.
Not that I have ever seen it called before.

True but refs are EXTREMELY hesitant to call intentional grounding in the first place. And they have to conference after throwing it when an eligible recievers touched the ball.But they realized how completely piss-poor that flag was, and picked it up.
I'm not sure. I can't find the names of the officials to compare. I wasn't able to watch the game.So it's definite this crew sucks.
I rewound to watch that during the game and yes. It was a blatant block in the back. MRI would have blown up the play so it definitely had an effect and should have been flagged. It was in the open and obvious as could be no reason they missed it.Haven't re-watched it yet, but it looked like MRI was blocked in the back right in front of the back on IU's last td.
And the blown spot that everyone knew was wrong except the dunce that spotted the ball.About as lame as calling grounding when foster almost caught it. Lol..idiots

On the play it was called i think newby might have been close iirc.

I've said it before: I do not want ed targetingham calling another Nebraska game. Ever. That's pretty much his go-to when he runs out of his other Edisms.The confusion on the defensive holding penalty (my guess) was due to Ed Cunningham's idiotic statement that Maurice had held a pulling guard from getting out to block, when in fact I'm sure he probably held the back that was trying to slip out into a check down route. Ed had a rough night, I think he dropped his Hoosier's megaphone at the half.
