That one didn't matter, Haarberg scrambled for a first down the next play anyway.

Replay shows he was well past the first down line to make.
Except for the fact that he got past the line to gain. And it should have been a first down and the clock should have stopped.
Alabama literally lost to LSU last year on a no call that was a blatant block in the back to clear the way for the winning TD....
Could care less what you choose to believe, just pointing out the obvious. Or maybe you watched a different game? Keep believin’, buddy.
Am being a realist, painful as the truth may be. You’re living in a fantasy land.
Not saying there weren’t missed calls, there obviously were. They had a couple ticky-tack calls that coulda been picked up, too. Am simply opining that that loss had less to do with officiating than it did our lack of talent. You remind me of my kids, always blaming someone else for their own problems. It’s CLEAR why we lost that game, buddy.

Yeah the blatantly botched TD review was just so ticky tack
Sounds like you need a nap, or a laxative ya crusty old f*ck. Nah, I think I’ll keep right on at it, because I’m right, and you know it. We WILL NOT WIN, consistently at least, in this conference, with unpaid players. Texas’ entire starting lineup makes an average of like $200k. We don’t have more than a handful of players with any valuation, at all.
I don’t like the system anymore than you do, but we’re gonna have to face it sooner or later.
Our O-line, WR’s and QB are just below average, period. That fact has nothing to do with officiating. We could be looking VERY different right now, had the powers that be chosen to.
It was marginal. I thought they got it wrong, FWIW. I’m just amused when we lose like this that it’s always ‘the officiating’. Nah. It was our inept offense. It was our lack of talent on that side of the ball. This was a WAY more important factor. Score more and officiating doesn’t matter.
Just ****ing stop you are having this dumbass debate with yourself day after day.
We all wish we had more talent, but the fact that we don’t doesn’t make it OK for us to get ****ed by crooked ass B1G officials.
No way man. This was a team effort. If we score enough points, its hard for the refs to hose us. Lots of people here said that over and over the past how many years.
I should have said this doesn’t happen to elite teams, until they play each other. The powers wanted LSU to win more than Bama? Who knows?
Watched this with my Omaha family today in Denison for a family reunion type deal. Even the Iowa half of my family was baffled that it was 2nd & 1
Corruption doesn't choose a side, it takes the highest bids.
safe to say they’d both beat us pretty soundly. Betting you’d love some of their players on our team?
The refs didn’t even stop the clock to measure they were totally clueless on the last drive. i suspect they wanted to go collect their gambling winnings
And that’s what you call big ten home cooking, my question is wtf have instant replay
I am not sure the league office cares if Michigan State or Nebraska wins. Now if involved the protected 3 I would be willing to go along with your thinking. I think today it was just bad, incompetent, poorly trained officials. I think we should go back to the old rule where if the ball touches the ground, it is an incomplete pass. It is the same has not enforcing travelling or carrying in basketball. The powers to be wanted to make it easier for bad players to still catch a pass.
