It only took one possession for the @NFL @Chiefs bias with egregiously favored officiating to show in a major way. The NFL is all but scripted and it’s unwatchable.
I wanna ask all HOF voters one question….if Andruw Jones plays for the New York Yankees for 15 yrs with 10 GGs, 400Hrs, 1300 rbis…is he a HOFer? Lemme answer for you….first ballot! Time to have a conversation about HOFers chiming in. 75 living members can make sure it’s right!
15 yards. 1st down Georgia Tech. Crushed for them. Stolen game.
TARGETING
GT fans have every right to be fuming. This is as clear a robbery from the officials as you’ll find
I have no clue what targeting is You can literally see the Georgia defender and Hayes’ helmets pop when they collide.
College Football Officiating is so bad. They just pick and choose when to call Targeting.
Really bad game for Joe Tessitore and Jesse Palmer. Multiple horrific calls and non-calls on that drive and not a peep. Really rough night for ESPN/ABC.
Georgia Tech fans should be livid. Refs doing all they can to save Georgia’s season. Two awful DPI calls. #CFB #GeorgiaTech #Georgia
The 30 for 30 in 10 years on how CFB was rigged for the SEC
Towards the end of this game the refs • Said the ball wasn’t out on a clear GT strip at the goal line, resulting in Georgia TD • Called a horrific PI on a GT 4th down stop, resulting in Georgia TD • Missed targeting causing a crucial fumble, resulting in Georgia TD Brutal.
What they wont say: Georgia needed 8 OTs and some questionable help from the refs to beat the ACC's 5th place team. What they will say UGA's comeback was SO IMPRESSIVE
More Horrible Officiating.. part 19 Holding NOT called.. FINE THE REFS. #Georgia #GeorgiaTech
I used to think that the idea of “football is rigged” was crazy. Then you watch this Georgia-Georgia Tech game and 90% of the Chiefs games and it definitely makes it a plausible idea.
THIS IS THE MOST EGREGIOUS HOLDING PENALTY YOU WILL SEE NO CALL.
So you mean to tell me that this wasn’t targeting by the Georgia player? Come on now
I like Joe Tessitore and Jesse Palmer but they are coming across as their paycheck states, SEC on ABC. No mention of the hold, the forced fumble, PI. This whole thing feels really wrong to me. ESPN owns this entire College Football Landscape including ACC and GT. Just dont like
Any other QB in the country this would be called targeting.
Of course this isn’t called targeting because it benefits Georgia lmao launched his head straight into the chest of Haynes king
Tessitore and Palmer failing as announcers. They didn't mention: - If Smart kicks PAT earlier Georgia leads - Didn't broach the obvious targeting on the fumble - Didn't broach the obvious hold on Georgia on the trying drive Joe and Jesse too busy politicking UGA for playoff.
Yeah 8 OTs is cool but this game shouldn’t have gone to overtime.
No one has ever wanted anything more than these refs have wanted Georgia to win this game
I hate this for GT if they lose. Very rare when you ACTUALLY see refs bend a team over, but it is clear what has happened today. The SEC should be ashamed.
