Can we leave it at that?
Seems to me the Arkansas State fans are the ones calling WKU cheaters, ref buyers, scum, etc. All WKUYG is doing is showing the actual footage of the so called "cheating" that did not occur.

Sun Belt officials inserted themselves into the game and became stars of the show...as they have a tendency to do.
It doesn't take cheating to have SBC refs throw a bunch of flags. lol
stAte fans need to just leave it at that.

I have to agree with ark30inf....Sun Belt officials constantly make calls to determine the outcome of the games, and it's a shame. While WKU benefited from the calls Saturday in the end, it very well could have screwed us too with the chop block call. Sometimes it's best to swallow a whistle unless someone just blatantly gets their head knocked off.

Are some of your fans still saying you are 8 and 4? Maybe if they calm down no need for video footage making Ark St fans look even sillier than they appeared after that game...

Yep. The chop-block is one of them. Not blatant or intentional enough to screw up an exciting game for. You have to keep the flag in the pocket sometimes.

Thanks WKUYG for posting these! Saved me some time!
Most of the calls looked questionable to me. The PI call was correct, but I've seen refs keep their flag in their pocket many times for the exact same play. I totally didnt see the facemask call??? It looked like more of a horse collar to me. The 4th down WKU catch, there just wasn't enough to overturn that call. The chop block, well, I can understand what it may have looked like to the ref. Plus, there's a player safety issue there, since he was tied up with another blocker. Questionable. IMO, The WKU fumble before the half was clearly a fumble. The late hit out of bounds on ASU was just stupid. Even if the camera didnt show it, WHAT ARE YOU DOING! GET AWAY FROM HIM AFTER HE RELEASED THE BALL!!!!
P.S. Targeting rules are dumb. If you review it and it's not targeting then why should there be a penalty?!?!?
Personally, I would have liked to see the refs keep their flags in their pockets during the last 90 seconds there. Let the players play.
Anyways, that's my opinion. Time to move on.
