OSU averages 52 Yards of Penalties a game in 2016 yet had only 6 yds of penalties-

Submitted by Rdog on

I was at the game-  thought the late PI call was wrong and after seein it on review it was clearly an incorrect call.  The ball was uncatchable and contact occurred at the same time the ball was at the receiver's hand.

In 2016, OSU averaged 51 yards of penalties when playing a home game other than today's game.

Even worse was the non-PI call against OSU when Darboh is held and then thrown down but no call is made.

Yes, Michigan could have played better but who knows how much better Speight plays if his  receivers aren't held.

Calling out the officials was a huge mistake by Harbaugh. It will hurt the program going forward. Warde needs to tell Harbaugh to stay the hell off twitter this off season.

It helps recuiting. These guys want to play for him because he gives zero fucks what anyone thinks but his players. The kids want to play for the guy who will tell The Man to fuck off, and JH will do it. We got fucked today, but cocksuckers like UM better watch out, we're coming for you, bitches.

What realistically pro-hopeful QB or WR or TE wants to play in a power spread? That'd be stoopid, no? Lots 'o them schemes in the bigs, right?

Patience, grasshopper, as long as JH doesn't say, "Fuck this, these refs are so bad I'll take my chances in the NFL!" The snake-oil salesmen like Saban and Meyer are working on borrowed time. (Hint: NFL officiating isn't any better.)

Urban texted the lead official that he didn't want the measurement. Also, he sent this: XOXO "don't call PI or holding on us all game or else you won't get paid the other half"

Not usually one to gripe about officiating since every team falls victim to bad calls... the problem today is every call (or non-call) were at such key junctures... Cole's hands to the face cost us 25 yards and a first down. Delano's PI on 3rd and long extended the game tying drive for OSU. If uncalled, we most likely win The game as OSU either punts on 4th and long or has to convert. No PI when Perry was interfered with forced us to kick the FG in the second overtime. And obviously the questionable spot on the fourth down run would've ended the game. I said OSU got called for holding multiple times against MSU and hoped refs would continue to call it. They didn't. Fistfuls of jerseys, D-lineman getting tackled, arms around edge rushers necks... nary a flag to be seen. Pathetic.

like everyone else with wins and losses but beyond the forth down not being measured, there is no beef here. That's really the only play that should be in question and some how it wasn't even close???? You'll see me put this in other threads...M was clearly the better team who found multiple ways to give this game away. Makes me sick to my stomach. Go Blue.

Guys - bitching is totally justified and Harbaugh did not cross the line in his comments. We won the game and everyone knows it. The crew should be suspended and the Big 10 needs to issue a statement immediately. Yes we had our opportunities but we outplayed them in their own place with a one armed qb and getting fucked most of the games by the refs. Harbaugh and crew did their jobs and if the refs do theirs on that play we win plain and simple.

He also has an easily found Linked In page in case you'd like to endorse him in any skills. Guy seems pretty overly proud of his officiating career considering how badly his crew sucks.

No holding calls against an O-Line that gave up 6 sacks, sure, they didn't need to grab!

Fuck the Big Ten, Fuck those ref pricks, the whole fucking crew can die in a fire.

I would say those 2 penalties they actually did call will exceed by 2 the number of snaps JT Barrett takes as an NFL QB!  But hey suckers, risk your life to play Urban Meyer's BS college offense, he makes a few cool million and if you are lucky you might get a good gig selling used cars someday and get out with at least one functioning knee!

Fuck them.
