The overturned pass interference because of the fan delay is one of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen. And the refs need to be investigated.

[@davidpp330]

There needs to be a full investigation and NCAA should release a statement that pass interference is not reviewable and also Texas should’ve been penalized for their fans throwing objects onto the field! If the NCAA or the SEC does not do this then you know money bribes are being made! We’ll only see more of this going forward!

[@Maze86753]

Nothing will come of it because Texas is one of the largest fan markets in the sport. I’d be shocked if literally anything happened. I’ll say this, they’re damn lucky it was in the 3rd quarter and GA still won out, a couple details about this call’s context change, and suddenly we’ve got the Rams v Saints call a few years back. Very weird stuff

[@MrAitraining]

It also tells fans if they throw shIt on the field and delay the game, conversations happen

[@rickgarcia7334]

The conversation they had..."they know where I'm parked. They know where my kids going school." "They know where I live!" "OK, we want to live, so I saw no interference, I saw know interference, me neither." "OK, hook 'em horns?" 😊

Something nefarious was going on with the referees. I hope Kirby takes it seriously and goes to the SEC, files complaints, and doesn’t let up. It’s absolutely not okay at this level. They could’ve cost us the game. The comms going out, the fans throwing full drinks at our players, the referees, the players being ejected. This team overcame more obstacles than I have ever seen in a game.

[@TrentGunnellGeorgiaExposure]

I have to give credit where it's due. Let me start off by saying I've been a hard critic on Mike Bobo and his play calling during his entire coaching employment at Georgia. I don't criticize him to be mean, but because I'm passionate about football. I' don't believe in playing vanilla and playing scared. These last 3 weeks, the play calling is much improved. It's all about keeping the defense guessing and off balance. I truly believe Bobo has finally seen and heard the UGA fans voice on playing predictable and scared. He truly has made some changes and the play calling has been great. Thank you Mike Bobo for being brave enough to lay it on the line and play football with no regrets and no fear. Go Dawgs!!!!!!!!!!

Georgia needs to move towards a run-oriented offense concentrating on Ettiene and Frazier. The current passing game is mistake-oriented and I don't want to rely on Beck more than necessary. As far as the overturned call; that was a disgrace since the refs were concerned about their safety and changed the call so the spoiled Texas fans got what they wanted. The defense won this game for Georgia. I want to compliment Jacorey Thomas for stepping in after Dan and Aguero were disqualified for correct targeting penalties. I can't remember a Georgia targeting penalty in the last few years. Today, they should have had three.

[@Maze86753]

The nobody gave us a chance was him talking about the outcome of this game. The “no one” is the like wider consensus that Texas was gonna btfo the Bulldogs. Obviously they’re top 5 basically no matter what, but when you’re facing another member of that top 5, that’s what they’re getting at with the doubts. Obviously the overturn is probably the objective correct call as the outcome, but it sure as hell did come across like “dude we’re not getting out in one piece of Texas loses and this call doesn’t go their way”. Its interesting to say the least.
