    You need your friend to host all the SEC officials over and teach them to catch the numerous difference making, holding non calls that they seem to look the other way. I think there was a conspiracy NOT to have A&M bring down one of their top 3 ranked teams. Anyone, (even Saggy) could have called those holds.

    ESPN paid off them officals so Auburn would win to stay in the playoff, only thing is they cannot keep Auburn from fumbling. Lol

    I think that's a bit much....even from an someone looking at it from an Aggie perspective. I could just as easily be on here crying about the PI on Bama on the last play of the game against LSU, but you know what, I'd rather them let them play than throw a flag every other play. There's holding on EVERY SINGLE PLAY in a football game. They obviously aren't going to call it every time.

    So is that the consensus? Just let everybody hold, then just call it after a big gain against the team you want to lose? Just so you can say you called holding 3 times in a game...
    They need to get back to basics. Make O-Linemen wear the type of boxing gloves where you can't grab anything because your thumb is immobilized.

    Without a doubt - 100% correct.

    However, if you're not up in arms about the holds that haven't been called against Myles Garrett, then you are not watching the game. The link below shows the call in question. While you can't get the all, it's a kick in the pants to not have the most blatant hold in the world called on 3rd and 10 on our 25(ish) when the result of the play was a first down.

    Link to Holding Play

    On the flip side, he'll earn the respect of the SEC officials soon enough and this will be a moot point. But the freshman has been outstanding on the edge for A&M this year and has a bright future.

    Glad that M. Garrett holds his composure and gets up to do it everydown. I would've gone and sucker punched the ref in the face. jk. but I'd at least let him know my homies would be on the lookout. That ref never needs to ref another down of college football. High school football either. He deserves a real donkey BBQ.

    That play was awful. What makes it even worse is that could have been an injury the way he pulled him down. That's a good way for a guy to hurt a knee or ankle.

    Try watching the Auburn vs Ol'Miss Game. Mid 3rd qtr Ol Miss up 24-14. Auburn has a 3rd and long. They complete a pass for first down and go on to score TD. On the play, Auburn had 12 on the field and 5 in the back field. No flags. Every member of the crew lost their bowl game right there. That's like getting your vacation time taken away at work. The are consequences that the public does not see.

    I can personally validate that you can see LOTS of things from the stands and on TV that you can easily miss on the field, even things that you think are blatantly obvious.

    I understand why you would say something like this, considering the longharns have the absolute ugliest uniforms of any sport. LOL.

    You couldn't be more wrong. The Horns, Michigan and USC have the best uniforms in football. That's why they don't change much. The wild changes for most teams is to try and help recruiting. Maybe it works, maybe not.

    Uniforms
    Michigan = OK to ugly
    USC = uglier
    Ut = ugliest

    A&M throwback uniforms = cool

    Prediction:

    A&M 34
    Mizzou 31

    Myles Garrett gets at least 2 sacks. Aggie defense gives up 400+ yds
