Obvious pass interference. Not debatable.

Between the incompetent officiating and field goal kickers, it has felt like I am playing roulette betting college football this year.

Again, I was on the fsu ML.

I have no reason to lie about that. 

But to sit here and say Kelly wanted to run a receiver pick like that when they moved the ball through fsu like butter all night is a JOKE.

Same here. This was standard receiver/defender bumping. 

That guy had NO CHANCE to get to the open receiver....none!

 

That was not standard receiver bumping.  The receiver clearly was bulldozing the DB into the endzone by blocking him on a pass play.  The receiver was not hand fighting to get position or trying to run a route.

That was easy offensive interference and "Illegal"

We always get on the refs when they make bad calls.  The refs made a good call on that play.

That isn't true you can't block when the ball is in the air unless the pass is behind the line of scrimmage.

You watch the NBA.

The refs make you earn it on the final possession and will not blow the whistle, even on somewhat hard fouls with a lot of body bumping and contact.

Same should apply here.

Swallow the whistle on these meager nothing "picks" that happen every other play.

My god.


Make fsu earn it!

I agree football has been ruined by officiating. But the idea that u can't call that in that spot is ridiculous. Y not call something blatantly illegal on the most important call of the game? Nobody impartial thought that was a bad call. Did herbstreit have FSU ml or just stating the obvious?

Just watched the replay again, you can tell its a bad call because the defender that was getting bulldozed doesn't even complain he just yells at his team mates

Are you really trying to be this dense on purpose? Or did you REALLY HAVE ND ML, and are truly salty?

Aside from this play that only YOU seem to find controversial, what other plays did the refs do a bad job on? Seriously dude?

Robinson WAS WIDE OPEN. you dont get THAT WIDE OPEN ON A TOP NOTCH DEFENSE LIKE FSU HAS....... the kid had the FSU defender in a SUMO/WRESTLING hold..... what are you watching? Seriously?

To anyone who thought that play was legal, stop watching and betting on college football. It was clearly a penalty and the refs actually got it right for a change and they are still getting destroyed.

I think it was called because there were two of the RIGHT THERE and the stupid receivers picking didn't even pretend they were running routes. It wasn't a tough call and yes officials let one of those go a lot but TWO? I'll take it further in my opinion tough not to call that and still have a job after whoever supervises officials reviews the tape. 
All the people bitching would you be bitching if it were reversed and FSU did that and got called? I don't think you would. I always ask myself that on these calls before going off. Look at it objectively; I don't know how you don't see offensive PI there. And again there were 2 there where the guys didn't even pretend to run routes.
*I lost on FSU spread won on over and am a Denver Broncos fan don't really have a college team but follow UT and BYU.

Something don't add up here.  Nobody who has FSU ML would complain about that call this much.  It was clearly pass interference.   But could've and probably should've been a no call. Like stated this stuff and holding happens on most plays it's up to the refs when to call it.  We've all lost and won bets on stuff like this.  But I've never complained about winning a bet on a call like this.  That just doesn't make sense at all.

How about that last minute holding call on Oregon to take away a TD and affect the total on the Oregon:Washington game. Refs suck

ND won straight up. I could give a shi* if my fsu ML play went up in flames.

This has just transformed the landscape of college football. And the refs were the culprit.
   HAHAHAHA!  "transformed the landscape of college football".  Great line.  Relax people.  This guy has a phobia about crying about the refs.
