In many games refs insert themselves into the game to make a difference. That's

sports. What we saw tonight were refs who were absolutely one-sided against BYU and gifted Utah the bonus with 10 minutes to go. They fouled out 2 players on ticky-tack calls in crunch time--that is not typical reffing by any stretch at any level (they let them play).

Maybe Rose forgot to teach him the jacket toss technique.

That's hilarious. I don't think I've ever heard a coach say something like that

I'm probably going to get hate for this, but I don't like it.

In almost any other scenario I'd agree with you. This game the cheating was

Ash

12/4/19 9:38pm

Sorry, but why would the officiating crew favor Utah?

Byu_1988

12/4/19 9:41pm

I think it's more about favoring the home team

SUAVO

12/4/19 9:46pm

and the home conference. Basically because you'll have to face these guys again

runnincoug

12/4/19 9:48pm

They weren't. They were a crew that officiates for several conferences

Byu_1988

You are aware, are you not, that there are NO conference

Why Pope references “courage.” K totally psyched them out

There is no Pac 12 conference basketball crews

bluelands

Yeah, I was looking up who the refs were for the game

Byu_1988

12/4/19 9:56pm

Best to assume everyone is biased

Did you see the tantrums and constant riding of the refs by $80k? They're human and

CLCougar

Ha did you watch the game?

Tuskaloosa Cougar

12/5/19 8:24am

I did. The question is WHY they would, not if they did.

It’s true. This was egregious

Pope doesn’t act like a )&(;)&$@@?! during the game though

That dude just won me over. Thats the attitude we need at BYU

How often has 80k got a one sided unfair game from the refs?

Tuskaloosa Cougar

12/5/19 8:23am

Third part of CB: He's crazy too! The refs were fine.

Ash

12/4/19 9:37pm

Yeah well, Pac-12 refs have been caught cheating plenty of times.

12/4/19 9:40pm

You are speaking about football. 🏀 has no conference affiliated referees.

UNHuskerCoug

12/4/19 10:01pm

Pac-12, Big XII, and MW share ref crews.

The consortium covers Pac-12, Mountain West, Big Sky, Big West, WCC and WAC.

I know. G-Stan and others are blaming Pac 12 crew. There is no Pac 12 crew.

Yeah, because that is exactly how how 80K would respond in the same situation.

I think that Pope is smart. Its OK to call out officiating that is criminal.
