job they played well enough to win period. Momentum swings games all over the place in games, the refs shouldn't push one team over the edge.

Refs screwed Cal BUT it’s also hard to blame the refs when you blow such a huge lead.

It's not hard to blame the refs. Clear targeting. 15 yards. 1st down Cal.

It wasn’t clear

Embarrassing take.

Dude lowers his head and leads. If he kept his head up you may have a case but

It looked like targeting, because it was targeting. Cal got screwed by the refs.

So two other people agree with me and the replay clearly didn’t think it was.

LOL 2 Miami fans and the ACC money makers agree with you. Thats about it

Shoulder contact or not it's irrelevant. He lowered his head and launched. That's targeting regardless of whether or not

Oh 100 percent it was. Just saying that Cal should take some of the blame for choking a big lead.

but no credit for getting a big lead in the first place?

Yeah lots of credit to cal for getting big league. They also choked it away. Is giving up a 25 point lead not choking?

cougarfanatic

Oct 6, 12:40am

it is but they only gave up 18 of that on their own. the refs handed that to miami twice from the targeting to that TD

FieroCoug

I didn’t think it was targeting 🤷‍♂️

Call was reviewed w/ the benefit of slow mo. Leads w/ head, QB head snaps before shoulder hits. Targeting.

how about miami for allowing cal to get such a big lead in the first place?

FieroCoug

Oct 6, 12:36am

Yeah that no call wasn’t the problem.

Narrator: It was.

MarylandFan

The refs missed Ott stepping out on his long TD catch. That no call a problem?

I believe this is called the bargaining stage.

Did you watch the same game as I did

Refs didn't have to give them all 25 points. Only needed 1 pt to win the game.
