Alabama 12, Tennessee 10 (final)

[Mike80]

I don't want calls like that to decide any game. Good no call IMO.

At that point it's more of a safety issue. That's why the rule was implemented.

BTW what's with Alabama players taking off their helmets BEFORE the game is over???

HAHA Mr. Burns!

Nope - no bets on that line.

[buckeyboy]

2008 Bama = 2002 OSU v2.0

I was thinking the same thing but just did not want to say it.

I'll get in my time machine and try to watch last season. But I see a lot more parallels between the '02 tOSU team and the '09 Bama team.

Kiffin's brash style gets him reprimanded again.

SEC reprimands Kiffin, Mullen for criticizing officials

On Sunday, Kiffin questioned why officials failed to penalize Alabama's Terrence Cody for unsportsmanlike conduct when the defensive lineman removed and threw his helmet after blocking a field goal on the last play of Alabama's 12-10 victory in Tuscaloosa.

Kiffin also said he decided to let the clock run down instead of trying to run another play before the kick because he was concerned about the officiating.

"You run another play and you throw an interception or they throw another flag on us -- I wasn't going to let the refs lose the game for us there and some magical flag appear," Kiffin said.

Kiffin expected to be hearing from the SEC about his comments.

"I'm sure we'll get one of those letters that really means nothing as Bobby got last week, but Florida and Alabama live on," he said Sunday.

This reprimand came with a warning from Slive to Kiffin, who was penalized by the league earlier this season after he accused Florida coach Urban Meyer of violating NCAA recruiting rules.

"Coach Kiffin is on notice that for any further violations of SEC policies will subject him to additional penalties including suspension," Slive said in a statement.

Tennessee spokesman Bud Ford said Kiffin would not comment on the reprimand.

Cont'd ...

I said it immediately here. That should have been a 15 yard penalty and an un-timed down for Tennessee.

But there is no way in HELL they are going to call that, At Alabama, when Alabama is undefeated. It wouldn't have been called had the situation been reversed and the game in Knoxville or Gainesville or Baton Rogue.

It's sad, but the home team (or the perceived BETTER team) ALWAYS gets the calls in the SEC this year.

The refs never would've left the stadium alive and they knew it. Should've been called.
