Obviously the SEC sent a mandate to officials in CoMo and K-town
Yeah, it's takes some serious defensive talent to get holding calls everytime the offense gets a 1st down.Tennessee leads the country in sacks. They get held a lot.
Complaining about the refs in a 34-6 loss. Classic.
That's the dirty little secret. Holds can be called on every Collegiate football play, but they are not.Strategic holding calls with no replays
But yeah the rig was in
I’m with you. We did beat ourselves. Horrible defensive call on a first down play leading to their first TD. Horrible pass by Minchey. Holding by right tackle call on a sweep run to the left. Fumble by Barnes. Multiple bubble screens for some odd reason when it was apparent they were shutting that down. Malachi Wood falling asleep and letting his man run by him untouched for a sack and forced fumble. Just really bad play calling tonight in the 2nd half. Hate we lost 34-6 but that score was not indicative of how we played. I know one thing. If I’m stein I’m remembering that last TD and first chance I get I’m running the score on Huepples *** and will tell him about it afterwards.My issue is the timing of penalties. Our BS penalties killed the drive. Theirs did not. Didn’t seal the victory for them. I still feel we beat ourselves. 100% feel like our lack execution cost us the game. We were the better team. We have let next week. We win. But we don’t. So we lost. Still in good shape for the playoffs layoffs. Can easily win the next 3. Games wanted this one bad. Just didn’t get it. Can’t stand UT.
I really don’t even think they are. I’ve seen every game of both teams all year. That first half we were clearly better than them. The penalties and turnovers killed us. Plus the refs. We had double time of possession and a lot more yards. Half of their first half yards came on the one long run. That one play hurt. It should have been tied at half.Brother we got our assed blasted yeah they made some bad calls but they were just much better than us
Their road games for the year, Arkansas, South Carolina, Texas A&M and Vandy. Arkansas gave them all they wanted, lost at USCjr and wouldn’t surprise me to see them go down next week at A&M.I really don’t even think they are. I’ve seen every game of both teams all year. That first half we were clearly better than them. The penalties and turnovers killed us. Plus the refs. We had double time of possession and a lot more yards. Half of their first half yards came on the one long run. That one play hurt. It should have been tied at half.
The score looks bad but their last few touchdowns they scored it was clear our defense had quit.
UTjr is not as good as the score showed. Their record is a product of their schedule. They got every single one of their tough games at home. South Carolina is the only team even remotely decent they played on the road and they lost.
They aren’t better than us. We win 6 out of 10 IMO but they got the one that counted, so be it.
True - my favorite non call was when their #4 caught a pass, got pushed out of bounds and threw three punches I could count before he got back to their huddle.Kentucky did not lose because of the refs but two things can be true at once...the refs and Kentucky both sucked last night.
yeah, I saw that one; somehow the play being called a no play meant the personal foul didn't happen either lolTrue - my favorite non call was when their #4 caught a pass, got pushed out of bounds and threw three punches I could count before he got back to their huddle.
I get the point but…..hard to blame the refs when you lose by 4 TDs. TOs killed us pure and simple. Offense produced yards, did well enough on 3rd down and still got run out of the stadium.
And you could come up with more of these non UK officiating decisions…we aren’t there yet but I trust CWS will have us in better positions in the future to not be blatantly screwed as we have always been.I get the point but…..
what if Ky doesn’t have 2 holding calls in first qtr …both if which negated first downs…no replay I saw on either to show how legitimate
what if pass interference was called end of first half (and it was pretty blatant)..hell that alone would have 10-10 at half vs 10-6
If we call a blatant offside that was 100% reason for a strip sack at end of 3rs qtr. the game was 13-6 at that point
If officiating was even to start the game the entire game would be different vs Ky letting go of the rope. Tennessee would have had to make their qb do more Va just run the ball
I ain’t going to say we lost on officiating….but I damn sure wasn’t close to even and did alter the game…and Kyn isn’t good enough to overcome that yet
Guess if you were to ask Stein he would just say TN is just that much better than we are. SMH. You are correct about your statement but more of a self reflection.
Our fans are such loser poosaaays.
Great post. Some of these idiots on this board can’t use deductive reasoning to come to such realizations. Pointing out officiating that did not go in our favor vs blaming officiating for the loss is two totally separate things but beyond the pay grade for some. That strip sack alone toward the end of the 3rd changed the trajectory of the game. We didn’t lose because of that but it sure helped TN cruise to a victory. TN takes over inside our 40 instead of us having 3rd and 3 just across midfield in a one score game.I get the point but…..

Probably because the camera crew couldn't find it.Usually the TV shows the holding penalties reply. Last night I don't recall seeing one shown to us. That to me is suspect.
A great portion of this message board are over-emotional fanbase and it's usually "same old Ky" nonsense (even though wev'e been winning plenty of close games and making bounces go our way for over the past decade +) or Coach is dumb, or players are terrible, etcc...Great post.
