Anyone know which conference?

All I know is that it is NOT John O’Neill and Co.

Road conference usually has the officials in the big intersectional battles. Though, the Oregon-OSU game was an exception last week, which may have had to do with travel distance.

Probably SEC. Miami, Mich State at Miami were BIG officials. I think they use officials from away teams conference.

Really? Isn't a rule, a rule? For example, last week was it a MAC crew?

Home-at-Home P5 Series have different contracts than the no return contracts b1g teams structure with MAC teams. When teams are getting a huge paycheck for their no-return game, they typically agree to use b1g Officials. In the Inter-Sectional home-@-home Series, the visiting team has choice on Officials and is entitled to choose their conference's Officials.

Which crew did the game? I thought it was pac-12

Edit: could only find one reference to it and it basically stated the announcers said it was pac-12 which is what I remembered.

We had Pac-12 refs today. We assume it will be BigTen refs next year? Not sure for your game. SEC would pay to have their refs in Happy Valley.

Pretty sure in the P5 home-@-home intra-conference games, visiting team has choice of Officiating Crew.

if so, when playing at Penn State, the visitors might be better served choosing a Big Ten crew. They certainly won’t have to worry about any bias toward the home team.
