CallingDingo Walk-on

This is the type of hold you want the refs to call.

The reason I can accept this hold is because it impacted the play. That fraction of a second that Eide held him was enough to free Taysom to run across the field looking for a receiver. The holds that I hate are those away from the play that have no impact on the result. It was clearly a hold and the only ticky-tacky thing is the fans complaining about it.

Criddle with this video of Eide's crucial hold call

Especially considering that WV was holding all game long. Almost every play.

Said every fan ever.

They were grabbing jerseys in the open field right in front of

Like I said, I don't disagree. I thought the same thing. Just saying that after almost every game, some fan will

They were holding a lot. I usually never whine about refs

9/26/16 12:21pm

sounds like fans from teams in the old WAC after playing BYU

He gave himself away when he lift open his arms like saying "I didnt do anything

Yup. That is the international symbol for I was holding. Ref calls it even if

Yep, don't ever act guilty. I always love when corners throw their hands up

Left Shark Coug

9/26/16 7:52am

I'm gonna guess he did that after he saw the flag.

Dillinger

9/26/16 9:15am

That was my impression too

Agaricus

He did the open arms thing then looked behind him and saw the flag

LaserCoug

9/26/16 11:07am

you think the ref wasn't already reaching for his flag before the open arms?

9/26/16 11:00am

This... he knew he was guilty.

9/26/16 11:18am

Yep. Didn't mean to do it...didn't need to do it...but it happened.

WVs WR were holding everytime a play came their direction. Frustrating it never

There was a third and long where a WVU CB grabbed onto one of our receivers

Circaman12

And they let the hold on Nacua go on a scoring play

BYU '80

9/26/16 8:23am

That was blatant and right in front of the ref

If I recall, Bernard was also held BIG TIME on that play. Both were blatant.

This is the type of hold you want the refs to call.

These are the kinds of holds that happen every single play.

UCLA's D-line was catching Taysom from behind a week ago

reddead

9/26/16 9:15am

No they were not. Their LBs were getting him though with speed and good angles.

Two UCLA linemen had sacks on Hill. They are:

9/26/16 9:35am

Your last line or two here was unnecessary

9/26/16 9:44am

Fair enough. I removed them

reddead

9/26/16 11:27am

It was a routine block and release. It had no impact. The white hat could call

StalwartBraveTrue

9/26/16 10:03pm

Worse was the smack in the face by the DB before the ball got there.

StalwartBraveTrue

9/26/16 8:52am

Wasn't the pass incomplete?

SpiffCoug

9/26/16 8:54am

nope. WR caught it and would have been a first and goal from the 2.

CObluezone

9/26/16 9:25am

Just re-watched it. The pass went to Pearson & it wasn't caught (hit the ground). It's still a ticky-tack call.

SpiffCoug

9/26/16 9:37am

I'm not in the mood to knock the OL this game. They played well.

Real Men Wear Blue

9/26/16 9:58am

This certainly wasn't a knock from me. I thought they were great

9/26/16 10:01am

I'm more ticked at the holding and PIs by WVs corners that didn't get called
