These officials called 3 total penalties. For whatever reason they chose a "free market" style of officiating. It is what it is. No malfeasance... you could make the argument that there was some incompetence but personally I'd rather the officials aim on the side of less penalties.

Just to be clear I did think it was pass interference. What are you going to do though. We'll get those guys soon. IMO the trajectory of our program suggests that they will hate to face us soon. On to OSU.

They may have cost us a shot at a national championsnhip. You are paid to officiate for a reason. These guys did not officiate. They decided to rewrite the rule book.

They didn't cost us a chance at a national championship. If we beat OSU next week feel free to run this in my face but that is quite unlikely IMO.

Do you really think we'll be able to go in there and hang with Ohio State? The kids probably got so up for this Wisconsin game that I'm worried for next week's game. This is a devastating loss, not only because of the way it ended, but because of the opportunity we had to shut the haters up just got completely stolen from us. That and you know Ohio State wants to come out and make a statement the remainder of their schedule. I really hope I'm wrong but this game had to have taken an emotional toll on the players.

I have more faith in our players than that.

Glad you're not on the team.

"The haters".... are you really gonna pretend to not be in that group?

All we had to do was score 7 in OT and win the game. I love our players. But when the coaches bring in a cold Wilbon after one Newby run, I feel like something is off. The playcalling had a big hand in why we lost. Tommy wasn't the most accurate, sure. But why did we go away from the screens and QB runs when they were working?

If we beat OSU and win out the conference championship game against MIch would be for the right to be in the playoffs. I have little doubt of that.

I'm tired of douchebags like you thinking I'm against this team for whatever reason. So sorry I'm questioning the playcalling and decision-making by the coaches and why I felt they had a huge impact on the game. Forgive me please, kool aid drinker.
I'm more upset at the lack of faith you have in the players.

Lol. Your posts earlier this week stated we "have no chance". Seriously, quit while you are ahead.

If you are tired of it, maybe stop the hate.

I think the players played well enough to win. However the 4 deep balls at ignorant times and the handoff in OT that hasnt worked all game were perhaps the dumbest play calls of all time. no reason to go deep before the end of regulation and no reason to go for the endzone in OT. you need 8 yards not 25.

To say the refs could have cost us the national championship is just plain ignorant. Refs let both teams play and kept their flags where they belong. Hell, Gerry could have had 2 taunting penalties that they didnt call as well.

Good ol #42 was on offense that play and blasted Gerry and it was never called. Even the commentators said something about it. That's 15 yards back and they don't score if called and we had success on then in the RZ

Our celebration also knocked down their kicker after he missed the FG and I was waiting for a flag on that one.

I thought the same thing, just waiting for that flag to come out. Not too many penalties by either team, guess the refs made up their minds they weren't going to get too involved.
