THE pass interference call

[ISUFan22]

Are you guys sure it was LJ. I think it was Fred Garrin but LJ was right there and he was pretty upset too. It should not have been a penalty, however, it was so blatant that we can't expect it not to be called. That didn't cost us the game so don't go blaming the refs.

Actually, this is right - it was in fact Garrin. I remember that now because I was yelling at him and not the refs.

Yell at the refs. They should have picked up the flag. Kids make mistakes that they can't go back and change, like knocking a player down. Refs can correct their mistakes and pick up the flag. Clearly uncatchable. No Penalty.

I have actually never seen a coach get that close to the ref and scream him down without getting a 15 yard flag. CPR was killing the line judge. The guy looked like he was 25 years old.
The call was horse crap. I was in the front row and it happened right in front of me. I almost lost my voice screeming at the Line Judge.

I loved that. CPR was going absolutely nuts and made sure he got his point across.

Or yell at a player for being foolish and putting himself and his team in that position. It was either pass interference or illegal contact.

Our guys have no discipline on the field - none. For a team with a very small margin for error, they sure do commit a lot of dumb, costly penalties.

Thanks, I would have been extremely disappointed in myself had it been LJ. I take pride in my individual F-up remembering skills.

that ball was uncatchable and the flag should have been picked up - but the players have to smart enough not to just knock an eligible receiver to the ground in front of three officials.

^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^

They never showed a replay that I recall. So it was pretty hard to tell what exactly Garrin did. But they were tangled up when they came into the picture.

But it was clear the QB was trying to throw the ball away. Jordan couldn't have got high enough to catch that ball.

If the refs wanted to call holding before the ball was in the air... that's one thing. But to say PI and the ball was catchable is ludicrous.
