Ahhh, now I see. I thought you were talking about the tweet posted. It makes slightly more sense now, but still not a ton of sense.
Those in-game experts tend to be wrong often. They're kind of a running joke. To read into it that it is because ESPN likes the SEC, and in this case really just hating the Big Ten because Delaney dared sign with Fox, this is a stretch of logic that is a tad much.
If you start with the presupposition that the TV network hates your team and conference, you will find lots of "coincidences." If there was a an SEC-Big Ten game and the same rules guy sided with the Big Ten team, you wouldn't say, that's a good job by they guy who drew a Big 10 paycheck for two decades. But the SEC team's fans would point it out as a clear bias against them. Because it's feelings.
98 percent of this angst about the great conspiracy isn't real.
If I thought it was a good job, sure I would say so - if need be. In this case, so many are on the opposite of what the SEC booth fairy did, it's not even funny. I have no dog in this fight, other than I always hope there are no SEC officials in games the Badgers play in.
I also don't think this play changed the game nearly as much as the targeting reversal (and missed hands-to-the-face on the same play) did. Lots of reversals in this game, which is interesting.
Probably need to move to a two-stage targeting rule.
Stage 1, no launch, wrapped up, etc., subject to review of the tackled players' movements prior to the hit. 15 yards, first down, no ejection.
Stage 2, clear launch, force with head, etc. 15 yards, first down, ejection and suspension for at least one game, or for many games as the victim misses (eye for an eye - not gonna happen, but hey!).
