I am developing a lot of disrespect for Michigan, Ohio State, and the “Big” Ten conference in general.. Sore losers and arrogant whiners all… they are giving Kirby Smart bulletin boards full of motivational material while they virtue signal with “UGA periods.” What a joke…
“It was a dangerous play?” - WTBleep? Football is a dangerous sport! This isn’t flag football. This guy should be taken off any officiating capacity. Rules is rules! “But it was a hard hit!” - seriously?
Good grief
#1 - Not targeting, it was reviewed. Heck, even the announcers and "rules expert" said it wasn't targeting. Bullard did just want you want, led with the shoulder and made a good hit. Was it a hard hit, yes. It's football. If you take hard, physical hits out of football, then we should just play flag football and I wonder what would happen to all that college football revenue? I think I would be cancelling my season tickets and watch pro football, fall baseball, and yes, more golf......even soccer. @SmartsTheMan @rconlan
#2 - OMG. I like rewatching this game and there were many (conservatively) holdings by OSU that did NOT get called. EX: Watch the replay and Carter gets taken to the ground on a hold during the play that Stroud scrambles on for a big gain late in the game. Critical play. The OL for OSU grabs him on the inside of his jersey and drags him to the ground as he is falling, because he can't block him. Any ref worth their weight would have flagged this play. Carter even throws up his arms as he is being dragged down to get the refs attention. @ScoreCheck
#3 - good point @Spdawg . I've also watched this replay many times and it's hard to find one that clearly shows his foot going our of bounds, but it did. There are some clips out there. Most replays start AFTER that happened. Hmmmm.
Remember the 2018 National Championship game against ALA? The blocked punt UGA got robbed on because of a terrible off-sides call that wasn't ? That was an infraction that never happened and "probably" cost us the game. Tua never gets the chance to win the game if the block stands. I've been over it for a long time, and yet, OSU can't get over this? Whiners for sure and it's getting to the point of being comical. This targeting BS is so different from the blocked punt, reviewed and confirmed, and still, it's coming up, over and over. Make no doubt, OSU is doing this in the hopes of influencing future calls, if the occasion arrises. OSU reminds me of UF, thinking they are entitled, but then OSU doesn't have to play UGA every season. #bestneverrests - GO DAWGS
Ohio State wants to boohoo about 1 play, if we hadn't missed 2 field goals, this wouldn't exist, all missed penalties aside. Besides, wonder what they would be saying if they had been UGA in 2017 NC? A LOT more than 1 missed/erroneous penalty.
I've never seen as much what iffing the past as these losing coaches and some players are carrying on about. Ohio State and 'the hit', Alabama losing some receivers,,,,etc. Its Football! Hits and injuries are part of the game..No place for dirty ball! BUT, it's football, not fantasy football. Y'all quit looking for excuses. Play Ball.
This call, that call. Can’t change it so move own. I remember plenty of UGA fans screaming HE WASNT OFF SIDES a few years ago.
bad calls happen and sometimes the right call seems wrong.
ITS JUST A GAME 🍺🍺
Hmmmm. Sure hope Georgia or any SEC team is not involved in a bowl game with Big 10 officials this year. This guy sounds just bitter enough to instruct some refs to get some so called payback.
First thing is that it simply was not targeting. Secondly, it's really hard to catch this on video, but if you slow it down you can see Harrison short arm this ball, in anticipation of getting hit I'm sure. And even if Bullard had not hit him, the catch would most likely been dropped anyway. And I finally saw a couple people bring out the fact, a couple days ago, that Harrison had been held without a catch since the second quarter. So for them to surmise that Ohio would have won with him in the game is doubtful.
Yuh.
I agree. When the Big Ten coordinator for officials comes out and says this - about a legal hit - Houston we have a problem.
Maybe the BigbTen is not used to playing big boy football. With all this crying about that one hit, Ohio State and their Big Ten counterparts must be soft. Now Michigan cannot focus on their season because they are worried about Georgia. I guess Georgia is Michigan worst nightmare.
Remember, WINNERS are never asked how they WON; rather, LOSERS are asked why they LOST and the excuses abound. IF this had occurred; BUT that call was bad... You lost get over it or it's going to hamper your preparation for the coming season...
Georgia had a natty taken away in the Bama game on a bogus offsides penalty. You dust yourself off and go win another.
