Anybody catch the mother of all bad calls vs K-State on that call incomplete by the goal line?Seriously some one should lose their job.Have all that technology,time and equipment and they don't either have guts or the good sense to call the obvious.SMDH

Arky up 28-27 on Auburn with 2:23 to go.

Weird ending in Auburn. The Tigers were trying to clock the ball to get in position for a GW FG.  Nix fumbled the snap and hurriedly picked up the ball and spiked it, but he spiked it backwards.

The refs threw a flag and called intentional grounding because once the snap was fumbled the spike was off. Arkansas coaches argued if the spike was off then Nix spiking it behind him was actually a fumble that  Arky recovered. Refs reviewed but upheld the intentional grounding call. Auburn ends up kicking the GW FG. I think Arky had an argument. The announcers did too.

Take your word for it after what I saw  - unbelievable.At least the blown call didn't cost KSU the game - though it could have

I think what didn’t help Arkansas was whether either side bothered recovering the fumble after Nix’s backward pass. Seemed like the ball rolled around and settled until picked up by a ref on whistling the play dead. Which defaulted the refs to instead call grounding on Nix. Or was the play whistled dead while ball was still live and in process of being recovered? Not sure I saw that right. Weird ending indeed. And another sloppy showing by Mahlzan and Auburn.

I saw a ref whistling the play dead as an INC pass waving his arms when the ball was rolling about.

At that point, it was a done deal, weird play.

I’d have to see it again. I thought the refs finally blew it dead as an Arkansas player picked it up but I could be wrong.  They definitely let it roll around a second or two before blowing the play dead.  Either way, Arkansas has a beef with it how it ended. The play should not have been blown dead.

I definitely saw a ref coming in from the top of the screen waving his arms dead ball, which is why the players eased up.

One that happens, I think it's not reversible.

Canes not showing much resistance, but FSU-ND might be a game

Ole Miss just went 11 plays, 75 yards all on the ground to retake the lead on Bama 21-14. Don’t know I’ve ever seen such a methodical drive on a Saban defense.

Turning that game on now - Ole Miss already has over 300 yards, about equally rushing and passing.  That's a bad omen for Bama.

Alabama is all O, no D.  UGA might take them to the cleaners.

I can feel Nick Saban's frustration from here
