Big 12 Getting Revenge?

False starts, illegal formations, and defensive offsides are pretty cut and dried. PI and the like are more subjective.

Texas got the review in its favor last week on the late fumble and this week on the punt muff. Texas also had 2 targeting calls negated.

Did OSU have some penalties? Probably. But, I doubt a concerted effort is there.
 
I will not "blame" the refs for the game because the vast majority of the penalties called on Texas were penalties. We killed ourselves. There was a holding call in the 4th that I have no idea what that zebra was thinking though.

But on the flip side not one single penalty on OSU? Come on, that's BS.
 
I’m traveling and YouTube TV is screwing me and not letting me rewatch for some reason - so I can’t rewatch that holding call on Ewers’ big run.
But watching it live, it sure didn’t look like a hold to me. But the commentators nor the Texas sidelines seemed to care about it so maybe I mis-saw.

Was that a bad call?
 
Always funny that at the end of the day the fan base always complaining about officials is the losing one. Every game we have lost this year we had the chance to put it away and failed to. The problem is not the refs!
 
The only one I thought was incorrect was the holding on Ewers long run. Looked to me the DE intentionally went down to draw a penalty. We also got a call on the so-called muffed punt. The sideline view clearly showed the ball bounced away from the PR. No way it hit him.

I don't know how many holding calls should've been called against okie lite. I usually don't see that detail until I rewatch and I'm not going to watch this "piss another game away" game again. Texas had every chance to win this game and sark once again proved why he's not a top tier coach.
 
The holding in the fourth quarter was garbage but otherwise hard to argue with most of calls. That said there is no way OSU didn’t hold once in fact there were several and it is a fact that the Big XII is absolutely going to screw Texas and OU if and when it can.

OSU had zero penalties.
Horns had 14.
 
Go ahead and point out the false starts, illegal formations, and defensive offsides by OSU that were missed. Also go ahead and point out obvious holds by them that were missed.

Oh I think it had a lot to do with white Texas lost. I'm not saying the rest did it on purpose.
But we played very undisciplined and cost ourselves at the worst moments.

Oh okay, well that I agree with. Sorry, I thought you were making the case otherwise that it was a conspiracy against Texas by the refs.

Well there was a non-called neutral zone infraction in either the last drive or next to last drive that was ignored. We’ve had about two holding penalties called against our opponents this year. Impossible. Especially given our very high pressure rate.

Do you know the best way to negate a talent advantage/disadvantage? In football, it’s holding.
 
I would be curious to know how many teams in all college games this weekend were called for zero penalties. Texas didn't play well enough to win, but ZERO penalties?
 
Little Known Fact:
The Replay Official in the booth who reviewed and overturned the "Roughing the Passer with Targeting" call against us was KiKi DeAyala.

there is no doubt the officials were turning a blind eye when it comes to throwing flags against okie st.
They seem to be the darling of the big 12.
Texas had chances to win anyway but it's not fair that we have to overcome the opponent and the refs.
hmmm, no penalties against them, how miraculous. we were stunting and blitzing but no calls.
That's the way it's going to be til tx goes to the SEC.

This is becoming the rule when Texas plays oSu.

100% agree with this statement. Every time we have played them over the past decade they have been gifted so many times. Who can forget the Texas d-lineman being called for holding on a running play that was stopped. Yeah, and it extended OSU’s game winning drive

So, you don't agree with me.
 
I suspect there is some of that going on selectively. That holding call was completely ridiculous in the 4th Q when paired with the fact that apparently OSU hadn't done that ONE TIME ALL GAME.

BUT...

Illegal procedure calls, a timely drop or two, freshman looking play on the back end and on the o-line... Lots of stuff that went wrong, and if you do that, the guy isn't thinking in the back of his mind "screw those guys, I'm calling that run back." It only happens on occasion on impulse, sometimes not even consciously... and if you just take care of business, it's not going to keep you from winning the game.

Agree but, OSU 0 penalties?
 
ZERO penalties?

I saw a clear OL hold on Ford that scored a TD.

RIDDLE ME, where the F was the ref watching on that HUGE play?

When you give a team zero penalties coupled with the screw job of the Charlie Strong team (tell me who can disagree with that a- - rape) there is a snake in the woodshed. The only question is where, not if. Let’s not be naive. This is not crying over a loss that was Texas fault but that does not mean you can f- - - k with me and get away with it, whoever you are. There were conscious decisions on the field to not throw the flag. No team is that perfect.
 
Again, we all know 0 penalties for Okie State. Think again about what is being said here, that the Big 12 is after Texas. Then why the favorable fumble/targeting review against ISU? Why the favorable muffed punt and targeting reviews against OSU? Come on, those could have easily gone against Texas.

Fact is, some of you sound like Aggies right now. Texas played sloppy and was penalized for it.

Snap out of it.
