Was there a single holding penalty called against psu?

My username is yikesyall because, yikes, y'all.
But, also, I can't help but feel that the refs actually have it out for Michigan. I feel like refs this season are making an active effort to get back at Harbaugh after his comments following OSU last year. The officiating was horrible in that game, and it's been even worse ever since. The same thing very often does not get called on both sides of the ball.
We've gotten a few favorable questionable calls, but they've been outweighed by a bunch of unfavorable questionable calls.

There is a very clear anti-Michigan agenda in the big ten. Not sure why because Michigan is the showcase program.

Hell man, you saw the OSU game last year. We win by 17 with fair refs.
October 21st, 2017 at 11:43 PM ^
maybe anti-harbaugh.
October 22nd, 2017 at 1:11 AM ^
Yup. No one's forgiven him for OSU

A superior undergraduate academic perception and Ohio State enjoys a superior athletic perception. Staee and PedU have closed on us. To the outside world Michigan is not the "showcase" program in terms of undergrad academics or athletics. Nope.

It's not necessary the ref will help out a showcase program. If the administrative staff /officiating staff are managed by people have tie with OSU/MSU, there will be always such agenda no matter whether Michigan is a showcase program or not.
My point is there is other possible reason too.

not every penalty is the same dude.
That's the reason i don't watch too many BIG basketball. Do you think a call for defensive foul lead to two PT vs an offensive foul make up call (before it' reach the total foul limit) is the same? No, one is 2 pt free throw, the other is just change possesion.

you will see his neck got wrapped almost every game. It was never called.
October 21st, 2017 at 11:49 PM ^
These ref threads are almost hilarious. This is why most fanbases hate us. Can't even take an ass kicking and accept that were not good without bringing up the refs.
October 22nd, 2017 at 12:01 AM ^
"Us"? You're clearly a troll. I can't even imagine how shitty your life must be for you to feel the need to post under a false identity on a rival's blog. Jesus. Fix your life man.

I'v been thinking about this for a long time. NFL and college players have raise their fists for what? injustice in the society.
But they can do nothing about the refs being injustice. Sports is a little mirror reflecting the real problem. Always that way, in any country.
Sad. They work so hard and deserve a fair game call. No make-up call and make the stat looks normal. Not every call is the same.

unfortunately, it has nothing to do with us.
October 22nd, 2017 at 12:29 AM ^
but are the people who are saying it is not an issue really trying to tell me that a Michigan d-line that has had multiple NFL caliber players on it the last 2-3 years, doesn't get held more than a handful times over that timespan. Give me a fucking break, that is just not believable. UM opponents the last 2-3 years have held the shit out of the d-line and are never called for it, that is bullshit.
October 22nd, 2017 at 12:32 AM ^
Refs didn't cost us the game tonight but they did cost us the MSU game which was on par with OSU last year. I'm surprised there wasn't much talk of the refs in that game, especially since we were at home.
Everytime MSU hit one of their three big plays there was a takedown by their OL.
October 22nd, 2017 at 12:56 AM ^
October 22nd, 2017 at 1:00 AM ^
It's not just about this game. How many holding penalties have UM's ultra talented d-line's drawn the last 2-3? A handful at most, that is the part that can't be explained away with any sort of reason other than the fact that UM's opponents have gotten away with a shit ton of holding the last 2-3 years.

Roughing the passer on a run :). (I think the call was borderline and it caused a 25 yard difference
Chop block when the cut came after the first blocker disengaged
Hurst was chopped on a long play that wasn’t called
Non-PI call when defender pushed receiver (DPJ?) oob before the ball arrived
Didn’t get a good look at the hold on JBB. Didn’t look any worse than 3-4 other non-calls. Man, getting points before halftime would have helped

Refs were awful but didn't come close to costing us the game like they did against OSU.

Forgot this game individually, as a whole how the fuck do you explain UM's great defensive lines only drawing a handful of holding penalties the last 2-3 years?
October 22nd, 2017 at 1:14 AM ^
October 22nd, 2017 at 1:36 AM ^
and if that was marginal could the marginal call go a different way? maybe?
No of course not. If it was Dotnion he'd been allowed to get style points.
F You B1G.
