How in the world do you miss this call? It's as obvious as it gets. Even watching it live, it was a no-doubter.

I guess if that hit would have ended the game then and there, yes they got screwed. Otherwise, who knows what might have happened going forward. That is the problem with picking a single play in the middle of a game as the call that cost a team a game. Unless it was the last play of the game that play would not necessarily determine the outcome of the game. The assumption is that everything else in the game would have happened exactly as it did and that one play in the middle of the game would have decided the final outcome.

Subjectively, yes, of course, it was a great call against Clemson.

Objectively, they must be blind.
It is comforting to know that SEC officials don't only suck in football games. We need to be able to count on some things in life being constant. SEC officials being universally bad in all sports is a rock we can count on in turbulent times.

They got screwed either way. Perhaps they still lose the game, but that was an inexplicably bad call.

Sure, I get it, but I have a feeling if we had an obvious homer stolen from us in a game we lost by 1 run in extras, there would be a different opinion.

I wouldn’t worry about it.

Clemson fans would never start a thread on TigerNet about us getting a bad call. Why do Gamecock fans worry about Clemson getting one? Rejoice in it. Screw them.

The heck they wouldn’t. They are fans just like all of us. They talk about us just like we talk about them.

Dang, I'm not used to be concerned about every SEC team we have to play. UGA looks pretty good this year and the job the coach at UK has done the last several years (peaking now) has been concrete. Must be freaking nice

I'll remember the next time our fans are b**ching about the umps in one of our games, which shouldn't take long since that's basically every game.

Congratulations on totally missing my point. The OP almost seems sympathetic to the Clemson team and fans. Screw Clemson.

Simply looking at it objectively. Am I glad Clemson was screwed? Yes. Was it a horrendous call? Yes.

I’d suggest you stroll over to TigerNet where you can gain more sympathy.

What Gamecock fan gives two ****’s about Clemson getting a bad call?

Umpiring pool must have turned into to a wading pond. MLB umpiring and college umpiring looks about the same these days.
Horrendous!
Used to be professionals but EDI but making its impact felt here as well.
