I had a bet with myself Terps would be on here griping about the refs.  I won.

38-0 blow out at half. it must be the refs, and only the refs. Why does Maryland even bother to show up if it's predetermined the refs are going to score 70 for their opponent, and not allow the turtle to get 100 yards...

Pretty sure they're obligated. 

And of course, it's not "only the refs". 

Literally no one said that.

PSU QB giving the sideline ref a fist bump is just the icing on the cake.

Maryland with 3x Punt yards than Offensive yards. Yuck.

Just waiting for basketball season, where all the pressure is put on a skinny kid who will falter like Justin Jackson. 

(+ the refs)

I only flipped through a couple times since it was a blowout. The announcers kept referring to this presumed dislike or animosity between Frankling and Locksley. What;s the story or background on that?

Just because they were both assts for MD at one point?

Franklin was promoted to "Head Coach in Waiting" but them passed over. He left there with some bad blood.

Sometimes I wonder how many national championships Maryland would have if they had fair officiating...

Maybe 9? 10? This century alone at least.

Lol.  In his defense he’s always super critical of the coaching and players too but he really can’t help himself with the officiating.  I think every fanbase has a faction that is convinced their team gets more bad whistles than others.  I know there are a few on WVU’s message board that have personal hard ons for the refs every game.

Generally Penn St and Michigan are the fan bases that are most notorious for pinning all of their losses on the zebras. 

Neither school has ever lost a game fair and square.
