HEY RUBBERRING! Remember what I said about Kiffin's brown-nosing?? And how he would talk sh*t about you the next week?? Well here you go. The refs lost it for him. Worst yet the Tide (and let's throw in the Gators for good measure) dare to "live on".
From Bama blogger Terry Pellman:
"In a season highlighted by some very bad calls from SEC officials, some things just aren't questionable. I could see an argument against the pass interference call. But, when I see four penalties involving false starts and the delay of the game that's pretty simple to me. Illegal blocks, roughing the kicker? Couldn't be more clear cut.
In the same conversation he mentions the headphone system on the sidelines. His inference was along the same lines as the penalty numbers--it's a grand conspiracy against his staff.
Considering Alabama had the ball, our play-caller in the booth needed more use of the system than the Tennessee coordinator who was on the sidelines. So... just who is at the disadvantage?"
As for the potential personal foul on Cody... on a blocked field goal, the kicking team cannot advance it, if the ball crosses the line of scrimmage. The ball was beyond the LOS, so an excessive celebration penalty would've allowed no provision for another down to be run. Just a 15 yard penalty on Bama, who has possession. The "game cannot end on a defensive penalty" code doesn't apply here. Game over.
BOTTOM LINE: Lame is not only lame... he's now tired and predictable. :lol:
