Head Ref, SEC Homer...

[Psugo823]

My cousin in Georgia is a sideline clock man for the Georgia Bulldogs home games and he was asking me about the botched downs call as well as the intentional grounding call/non call. He felt we should have had no penalty and Auburn should have ( he was also a former ref). He also knows the head ref and umpire from doing Georgia home games but did not comment any further on them. Maybe he will if they screw over the Bulldogs!

We might find out how he really feels after Auburn screws Georgia in Jordan Hare in 2 weeks.

Is it really that big of a surprise that sec refs live in the south?

While you might expect an SEC ref to favor Auburn over a Big10 team, within the SEC it's clearly Bama that gets the favored calls. Any SEC team challenging Bama will also find crazy calls in non-Bama games. Like Honig and Witvoet making questionable calls to hurt Penn State in a Penn State-Iowa game.
