It wasn't the Buckeyes that robbed Miami of a NC, it was the dad-gum ref.
I won't take anything away from the Buckeyes; anyone that could even hang with those Hurricanes deserve props. Miami should have mopped the floor with Ohio State the way they did with Nebraska the year before.
The Buckeyes came to play, kept it even, and the ball bounced their way in the end.
Besides, think of the uproar that would have ensued had the Interference call not been made and Miami won - would you want to win that way?
Cheesing it out like a bunch of Buckeyes???
LOL, jk everyone. :)

In bowl games refs from a neutral conference are used.
I bet if you research it it was the PAC 10.

Surprisingly, it was Big 12 officials.
Besides, Pac-10 refs make bad calls to benefit their teams. :)

Where's the Mayor or OU-Ron to weigh in on a certain game that occured about two years ago??
Back in 1991. I met on an airplane the field judge from that infamous 5th down game between Colorado and Missouri the previous year. He explained to me that it was bad enough that all the officials missed it, but pointed out that everyone else in the stadium, on the sidelines and in the press box missed it, too.
Exactly! I'm surprised no one (and I mean no one!) ran on the field naked to disrupt the game until someone was smart enough to point this out! What were the Missouri coaches and players thinking as this travesty was being made? Tens of thousands of people missed this or were so shocked into speech impediments the play was left unchallenged. I can see it now : Man driving away from stadium "Honey did you see it? Wife : You mean the play where Colorado got the extra down and won the game because of it. Man : Yes! You saw it didn't you? Wife : Of course I saw it! Man : Well why didn't you say something!??? Wife : You saw it didn't you? Man : Yeah I saw it! Wife : Why in Hell didn't you say something!??? If anything should have a asterisk after it it should be the Colorado Buffalos National Title! ..... Colorado hasn't been the same since. Scandals and weak teams don't make for quality football. It's exactly what they deserve!

Worst IMHO:
#1: Pac-10: Not even close, despite how much you want it to be. I've got two words for you: BUSH-PUSH. Assuming that's not enough, how about: Oregon-Oklahoma-Onside?
#2: ACC: But they have gotten better in the last few years.
#3-11: I don't know/care. Two days, 12 hours....

You can combine all the ref's from all the conferences that anyone thinks is bad, and they still wouldn't compare to the lame ass calls that is made in the Pac 10, absolutely the worst officials anywhere, and it's not JMO...!!!!
ACC: 37 games - 30 replays - 15 overturned - 50.0% Pac10: 30 games - 38 replays - 14 overturned - 36.8% Big10: 37 games - 38 replays - 13 overturned - 34.2% Big 12: 38 games - 39 replays - 13 overturned - 33.3% Big East: 26 games - 27 replays - 9 overturned - 33.3% SEC: 39 games - 27 replays - 8 overturned - 29.6%

This assumes the replays get it right.
For the PAC 0 I suspect foul play, which would lower the overturn rate artificially.
For the SEC I suspect ineptness, which could be applied to the replay official too.

Yep Ben - the Refs are Rank. No question about it - just what degree of rankness is all that's left.

SEC at third worst? id ask you to re-consider. i think they give pac 10 a run for their money. now everyone knows about the worst call in history. the Oklahoma/Oregon onside call.
Bleed, I'm sure if you give TE some time, he can explain to your satisfaction, why those were the correct calls.....

haha. nooo. not even TE would try that. he would just try to minimize the effect that those two calls had on the game. and try to argue that LSU would've won regardless.
TE?? this is your que.

USC + the PAC 9 have the worst no doubt Watched a H/S game last Friday and this kid was tackled by a blocker, everybody saw it except those guys in the striped shirts, heck if that aint holding -what is? Our team was having alot of trouble on D without the refs help, sometimes its so bad its like how can you not see that, then our coaches go to hollering- heck this kid wasnt held he was mauled, thrown on the ground. Anyway the team that won was from a big town that actually had 3 seperate teams, fresh,JV and varsity. Our Freshman team was also our JV team and these guys had fresh players, most of which didnt play both ways. Their bigger, stronger and they's more of them, plus they got the refs too. Our boys didnt stand a chance, might as well been playin A&M.

The difference is the SEC screws up big, but does so indiscriminately. The PAC 10 actually slant the game.

Speaking of which, the game is on ESPNU now. The channel is messing up, so 100% sure.

The refs in the sec used to be better before the head of officials retired. It has gone downhill ever year since. I don't see any inporvment especally since they want even take mail or phone call on the subject.

It all depends on perspective. If a ref makes a bad call and my team wins, then it is a good call. I would take bad refs and a NC all day. Don't say you wouldn't. The refs can't win anyway. One bad call in a "big" game is going to be overshadowed by a thousand good calls in non-decisive (non-conference, non-bowl games etc.) games.

Pac-10 has the worst officials by far. And, it's not because they are bad. It's the Pac-10 Commish that directs it all. It's like Tomcat says, "it's USC and the other nine schools". The Pac-10 hates that as much as anyone else does. They are constantly clamouring to get a 2nd team into a BCS bowl game. They know Southern Cal will go. Ever wonder how Southern Cal can pound any team except for Stanford, Oregon State, FUCLA or Washington? The Pac-10 has got to give the Trojans their one loss and hope like hell that someone steps up to take the Conference title. They almost had it last year, as Oregon was playing as well as any team, until Dixon went down. It's not the calls that they use against the Trojans - it's the non-calls. It's all the holding on the line and the grabbing of the receivers. These are the things that go on in just about every Pac-10 game that the Trojans are involved in. Ever wonder why USC has that mid-season rut? After the conference figures out that they can't get a suitable replacement - they go ahead and let USC play. That's why they'll usually finish out strong. Whenever the Pac-10 has a strong Cal, Arizona State or Oregon team - they are gonna try and give USC at least one loss or maybe two. Personally, I'm real worried about FUCLA right now. They have the marquee coaches and a nice venue for the Pac-10 to try and help promote. I'd be real surprised if the Bruins don't start getting alot of calls going their way and to be able to hold all that they want to. If I were a Tennessee fan I'd be lookin' for this in the upcoming weekend. Would not surprise me at all if FUCLA isn't handed this game.
