Thought it might be fun/cathartic to have a thread dedicated to the weekly atrocities committed by our conferences officials. Amazingly, they seem to be getting worse; not just bad calls but major errors like above are happening more and more. Or at least they’re being noticed more.
I like the new commish so far but until he makes a legitimate move to clean up our officiating we might as well have kept Larry Scott.
So glad this got caught. I was losing my mind during the drive trying to figure out whether I missed a play or what…. Kept waiting for the announcers to say something. To me, it looked like the refs moved the chains after a first down play got Oregon 6 yards, and then when Oregon got 5 more on the next play, instead of that being a first down, it was 2nd and 5. The announcer even corrected himself, saying “first… I mean second down and…,” and just rolled with it.
Bizarre.
Showing another example of how the conference sucks reminded me that I owe you an apology for saying Fresno Stage wouldn’t finish in the top half of the Pac-12. Not related to the ref issue, but I connected the two in my head.
They would. I was wrong. I probably also owe some BYU fans an apology for saying the same.
The refs in this conference are as incompetent as the head coaches. I’ve defended the programs in this conference, but the teams look so bad that they’re just like the conference administration and the refs this seasons; depressingly incompetent.
It didn’t matter at that point in the game but these clown refs also used replay to call an ineligible man downfield after saying the ball had been tipped.

lol, no worries man. You don't owe me an apology. Or anyone! (maybe you do, I don't know what you've done in your past)
Amazingly, that may have been the worst overall officiating all year. The review to find out a second play had transpired so they couldn’t review the previous play was an all-timer.
