SEC Explains Play Clock Call

[sonomagator]

According to the SEC back judge made the right call, explains the procedure. Now It'd be nice if they did something about the fat b*stard who speared Taylor. www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/florida-kentucky-overtime-play-2014/

 

[Mudd]

I was so mad about that late spear. How does no one in stripes on the field see that?!?

 

[The Original DC]

Of all the effed up calls they made in that game, THAT'S the call they had to explain?

 

[sonomagator]

Evidently Stoops and Kentucky complained :rolleyes:

 

[GatorStud]

Yeah the spearing was bush league, dude gets the Darnell Dockett lifetime curse for that one.:headshake:

“At the request of the University of Kentucky, consistent with SEC protocol, the conference office reviewed the fourth down play in the first overtime of the Kentucky-Florida game and has determined the officials applied the proper mechanics and guidelines that are in place to determine when a flag should be thrown for delay of game,” the statement read. “The back judge is responsible for delay of game calls. The procedure for the back judge is for his eyes to stay on the clock when it nears zero. When the clock hits zero, he immediately looks from the clock to the ball. If the ball is moving, there is no delay of game. If the ball is stationary, a delay of game penalty is called.”

It was the right no call, when he looked Max was moving the ball...

 

[T REX]

Interpretation is kinda whacked...it definitely was 00 when it was snapped so whatever. I'll take it.

That fat tub of lard took four steps after the whistle blew AND he led with his helmet. Committed every violation in the book, still no call. Turrible

He absolutely should have been ejected immediately. No excuse for the no call other than money involved.

Total

That was close enough that the call could have went either way and the other side would have a legitimate gripe. After last year, we deserve a few breaks to go our way.

Looked worse in slo-mo.

I don't know what is up with the officiating in the SEC at times. These guys cannot see a Player go Darnell Dockett and spear another player. You have a back judge that calls pass interference from 25 yards away while the refs on both these calls miss them. Being a former referee these guys at times have bad field management of their zones. Surely we have better in the SEC.

As far as the spear on Taylor. I'm not sure if they have a review of those plays, but that a-hole needs a suspension. In addition the crew needs to be called out on it. Especially the Ref on top of it. Obviously he is blowing the whistle. Does he stop looking, apparently so.

exactly.! And the NCAA and SEC need to stop giving hypocritic lip service to protecting players from injury while parading out the targeting rule and allowing it to be used used to manipulate games by removing key players for legitimate hits while allowing actual vicious intent to injure to thrive because it suits somebody's monetary desires.

it is basically aiding and abetting violent crime against college athletes;

And they expect us to believe the gurley head butt on usc that resulted in a 15 yd PI against usc for a GA first down was an accidental oversight or never happened.. Who cares if the player has serious problems as a result. I think these types of calls and no calls are getting more blatant. why not? they know there is no accountability and their is big money involved. The players are merely people.

I knew there was something fishy about you

 

[TheDouglas78]

The refs judged the play as it has been judged the last decade (at least) wait til it hits zero, then see if there is movement. If the ball hasn't moved and isn't moving throw the flag. You get an extra .5 second to full second depending on the ref after the clock hits zero. The rest is just whining.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

Watching it live in the stadium, I thought they got it off way after it hit 0, but it really was just a fraction of a second later. Stoops can whine all he wants, won't change anything.

 

[Himey]

I was also getting pretty pissed at all that pushing off their receivers were doing against our DB's. Full arm extension and all.

I remember seeing the ball snap first but I was heavily intoxicated.

 

[Double Gator Dad]

So Stoops is complaining about a very close no call, that has since been validated, yet he completely ignores the numerous, and I mean numerous missed calls that went in his favor? Mark is clearly Bob's brother.
If the idiot refs call the spear on Taylor:
1. We get 15 yards closer to a score
2. His best defensive tackle is disqualified from the game
3. His best defensive tackle misses the first half of their next game

Stoops should shut up. His team had multiple chances to win the game and did not get it done. End of story.
