Well, that would seem to indicate that the assertion made isn't accurate. Funny what happens when you use actual data.

If I really wanted to be a jerk, I would respond to Mr. Drew with a list of the wins and losses and ask him, "Are there any other things you don't remember about BYU? Is this perhaps why your articles about the Cougars are so ridiculously bad"?

But I won't be a public jerk. I'll just let him read it here and stew about it. If he has any integrity, he will use my passive-aggressive approach to correct his error.

He allowed SDSU to tackle Tyler Haws at the end of regulation in Maui a few years back.

Seems like data should be available on this. Anyone know where it could be found to prove/disprove this hypothesis?

Except all you have to do is go back and watch the end of the game against SDSU in Maui

The statement by Jay Drew is “I can't remember a game that Randy McCall officiated that BYU won”

There's nothing wrong with Drew's statement. He didn't say "in the research I'v

it's not a definitive rejection of Drew's assertion. He said "I can't recall..."

That's because McCall has had some really bad late game officiating performances in games BYU has played.

Good take. Just because byu has won 50% means nothing. It’s not like a ref can

So Drew's statement was about his poor memory, not about biased officiating.

However, those stats DO suggest it makes a negative difference when he refs.

What did the advanced metrics/Vegas lines say SHOULD have been our record?

jkccoug

1/28/21 3:50pm

Our overall win % during that timeframe is 68%. But only 53% with that ref, so

Just because byu has won with him on the floor means nothing

1/28/21 4:07pm

Seems like our record in close games with him reffing would be more telling.
