Official SEC Football Thread 2009

This just in from Gainesville:

Florida players continued their unsportsmanlike antics in the game against Vanderbilt on Saturday. Safety Will Hill pushed a player off the monkey bars in the first quarter while CB Joe Haden could clearly be seen giving a Vandy WR a horrific Indian rug burn just before half-time.
The poor conduct continued in the second half as DE Jermaine Cunningham gave the Vandy QB an unrelenting wedge following a sack. The most inexcusable incident of all however occurred in the 4th quarter when LB Ryan Stamper, filing in for the suspended Brandon Spikes, gave Vandy's freshmen RB a tormenting wet willie at the bottom of the dog pile.
Severe suspensions are expected to follow for all listed.

I really like how some of the sports analysts are now piling on SEC officiating being so bad and so blatantly in favor of Alabama and Florida. On both Pardon the Interruption and Around the Horn today one of the topics was the blown interception call in the LSU/Alabama game.

It may surprise everyone here, but I am fine with the call in the LSU BAMA game. It was too close to be called on the field, even though they called it. I still think the call was wrong, but there were no indisputible replays with which to overturn it, and while it would have bouyed LSU somewhat, once all our players started dropping like flies, the game was over, call or no call. As for powersmoker, 'waa' yourself, beyotch. Florida plays dirty and gets caught on tape several times a game doing it. Do all teams play ugly? I think so, at times. It's like holding, the old "every play" deal. But make no mistake, people hate Florida for good reason. People also love Florida for good reason. And maybe you are tired of hearing all the whining. Who knows. Hell, who CARES. But don't try to hide behind too much humor, cause your team is a sucky busload of scumbags.

It Probably Was A Bad Call, Brad, But, Like You said, Too Close To Overturn When The Call On The Field was incomplete pass. Like You said, Also, Probably Wouldn't Have Made Any Difference. Thanks For Being Realistic, Unlike The Auburn & Tennessee Fans At Work.

After watching some of the replays on different sports shows today, it was a bad call. Probably didn't make a difference in this game though. There are articles on just about all the major sports websites now criticizing the officiating in the SEC in general and how the SEC's solution is to fine or suspend anyone who publicly comments on the bad officiating. To me that is the real "scandal".

Bad calls happens in every game. Great teams manage to win despite the bad calls. Last Saturday the best team just happened to be Alabama. Personally I hope Alabama beats Florida in the SEC Championship because I really don't like Florida.
