The Fumble was the kind of bad call that happens all the time... It was damn close and no official could see both his knee go down and the ball..

Then because of the lack of angles replay could not overturn. That call happens *all the time* and it happens to every team.

The Safety was terrible and should hve been overturned a the rules state a dumpster fire call can be.

That being said..

If would have been fourth and 30 something at the 3 yard line. Buffalo would have had even better field position on the next drive than they had after the Safety.

UB won that game because they were the better team on that night. The officiating was terrible but it cut both ways. And no it was not the difference in a 27 point blowout.

Ohio got three after an awful hitting out of bounds call to extend a drive.

why do we continue to allow every exciting football moment to result in 5 minute delay of action when the obviously blown calls are seldom overturned?

and it's not just me, I know other rocket fans who have stopped going to games because between the stupid replay delays and the tv timeouts the game is no longer fun for them.

EVERYBODY hates the guy in the red jacket.

Get off the field, Lick!!!

I tell him the same thing every game. Have to admit, he takes the blame like a man. And then cries.
