There — now that I’ve gotten the business side of the blog taken care of today, the next section is what I’m really feeling passionate about today. Football officiating

I was going to mention the Akron vs. NCSU game and the officiating…but after the thrashing the Wolfpack took this Saturday by USM, I think I’ll just move on…the Wolfpack’s got a lot more problems than officiating. Hopefully, they’ll get those corrected in the coming weeks.  I have to admit college football officiating has been a sore subject with me ever since “the robbery” .. uh I mean the game in Chapel Hill in 2004. The game in ‘04 was probably one of several that led the ACC to move towards adopting a replay system.

I will be the first to admit that NCSU should have never allowed themselves to be anywhere close to losing to Akron — no question about it.  But you know what — sometimes that’s the way it works out in football — ask Florida State about Troy State or Tennessee about Air Force…. upsets happen (or almost happen) every weekend. However, no matter what; you should still have a fair shake and especially on your HOME FIELD, in front of your HOME FANS and in front of YOUR CONFERENCE (ACC) officials.  For example, look at the “home cooking” that Oregon got this past Saturday. Wow! Now, I’m not asking for that kind of special treatment by the ACC, but at least a fair shake??

In the game this past Saturday in Oregon, the Oklahoma Sooners had a commanding lead on the Oregon Ducks with just minutes left to play. But after a botched onside kick ruling and a pass interference penalty that should have never been called because the Oregon pass was tipped by one of the defensive linemen, Oklahoma lost a game they had no business losing. Let me state for the record, I had no interest in this game at all. I didn’t care who won — but I do feel like Oklahoma got robbed.

Replay systems work pretty well….especially when you actually use them. Why even have instant replay if you’re not going to use it in a potentially game changing situation? 

This statement above was the question I was going to ask after the NCSU Akron game. Now after this weekend, they used the replay system in the Oregon/OK game and still got it wrong….I’m just not sure what college football needs anymore… maybe a better eyecare insurance plan for officials?
