It’s up to these ACC coaches to go public, regardless of the threat of retaliation by the Conference, by criticizing the ACC officials. It’s not just UL, nor is it confined to the ACC, as we have all witnessed bad calls across all of college football. However, even those TV analysts working the ACC games have been unable to avoid acknowledging the incredibly poor performance of these officials.
Jeff cannot do this on an island, he needs to reach out to his counterparts, as each ACC team is vulnerable to this pathetic exhibition by officials. This game is too big to allow such irresponsible performance by paid professionals who are dictating the outcome of these contests.
I may be incorrect, but one of the UL Administrators told be earlier last week, that ACC reviewed the SMU fumble call that was reversed, and acknowledged the revue process “got it wrong”, and the possession should have remained with UL. I believe it affected the outcome, yet there was no effort by the ACC to compensate UL for the injustice ……. arguably one that reduced the chances of UL qualifying for an ACC Championship. If there was any disciplinary action taken against those responsible for overturning that call, we have no way of knowing, as the ACC refused further comment.
Obviously that ACC revue had no affect, as the holding flag that was called against UVA, but picked back up after a brief discussion; may have been unprecedented in all of football. At least I have never seen a single instance before, where a holding call was called by an Official, only to be reversed.
