The only thing that might negate the correct call is when the referee blew his whistle, which you can't hear on the replay. Other than that, it looks like a piss poor call and piss poor review
haha i remember this call. they muted the stadium in the broadcast, but the stadium shook with boos n shit started RAINING down on the field. cups, hats, towels. you name it.
Ah, yes - I remember this game fondly as the game Matt Ryan announced, "I'm going to murder this defense, be a top 3 pick, and then be rookie of the year...startttttiiinnnngggg...now."
no because the facemask happened on THAT play. Just because they didn't have the entire play in this vid doesn't make the facemask forgettable. It was obvious. Fist full of facemask. Shoves him right down.
I agree that the refs made a shitty call about out of bounds, but it was equally poor of them to miss the facemask.
how bout the GT receiver facemasking? No one mentions the fact that the reciever had a hand full of facemask shortly after catching the ball. So they should be happy thats all that happened
Hey, Stephen Hawking - the replay was about where he went out of bounds (which the booth totally blew, of course). Some comment about touching the facemask makes as much sense as me commenting about the 30 holds not called on the BC OL in that game. Pointless.
I was at this game and could not believe the amount of blown calls. There were two pass interference calls blown that both favored BC...the Boston sports teams must be paying the officials in addition to illegally filming other teams.
Holds galore in this game! BC even stated that they had to hold to stop the GT onslaught, and if you watch the video its evident that the refs were missing something collaring is not a legal offensive line technique seriously did they change the holding rules cause apparently collaring jersey pulling blocking in the back and tackling is no longer holding by any ref's opinion
the ball carrier can grab the mask its considered a stiffarm. now if he gave the defender the ball and then threw him down using his facemask then it would be considered a foul, and yeah he got thrown down either they should have given tech a 15 yard gain (via penalty) been a holes and said he was out which he clearly wasnt but thrown the flag b/c it was then considered way past the play, or given Gt the first down and ignored the penalty (which would be wrong)
Hey now, it's not really BC's fault that ACC Refs are the worst in America. Watch any bowl game done by an ACC officiating crew and you'll see these guys disgrace themselves every year.
@TexasWreck if the runner's hand is grasping the facemask it is an offensive facemask penalty which is an personal foul I am a Big 12 official

@TheFlyingSquirrel The runner can not be called for a facemask for using a stiff arm

At 00:16, the ball carrier grabs the defenders face mask, should have been a penalty anyway.

A stiffarm, true; however, at 00:25, the BC defender flings down the ball carrier out of bounds.
From start to finish, the worst officiated game of the year.

There were so many bad calls in that game... GoJackets2007, do you have the "immaculate pass interference" or the TD that was called "out of bounds"?
GTRed 4 years ago
I have them both. The BC @ GT game has put our staff at "bad acc refs, inc." on overtime. Still compiling those and many others.
