Not get up in the players' faces. This guy looked like a control freak dweeb on TV. Like he wanted to make himself a much bigger part of the story than necessary on the ESPN broadcast. I appreciate the refs who stand back and observe. They can call a penalty if it gets out of hand. Otherwise, let the boys show a little emotion!

The thing was, though. He was consistent with BYU and Virginia players.

I'm shocked we didn't get a flag on that one. Leslie did the Cam Newton

There is no double standard. Reffs and players are not equal on the field

9/21/14 3:49pm

as the picture shows-- this official is out of line--no reason to restrain

Im not sure if you have ever played sports or not
