Kirby said the kick was a mistake, he wasn't sure what happened, the kicker may have mishit it?  He's a very good kicker.

“So the kick was, they have a very different alignment, and that was not the planned kick,” Smart said. “It was unfortunate. Peyton missed the ball a little bit. And we weren’t trying to squib that.”
The shortened field led to Texas’ first score of the half, with Texas benefiting from a third-down pass interference call on freshman KJ Bolden.

Lulz at the loaded language "benefiting from a pass interference call."

Another way to phrase it-- Georgia got caught cheating and was penalized for it.

I just had the epiphany that the Georgia was likely chanting "U-G-A" instead. That makes a ton more sense.
That's what I get for standing in front of amplifiers most of my life.
Ha!  I was wondering what the heck you were talking about.  Yeah they were chanting "UGA" in support of their team.

Or the refs constantly tried to give the game to Texas.

ROFLMGDMFSBAO!

That's hilarious.  It took a 5 minute delay and a temper tantrum from the student section just to get them to correct an egregious and intentional-seeming error they made in Georgia's favor on a clear Offensive pass interference and potential game-changing play.  They're lucky they made it out of Austin alive.

Which gives rise to a question:
As Texas reviews its procedures to ensure a more streamlined game environment, what procedures are the SEC implementing to ensure the officials get a simple OPI/DPI call correct without relying on a 4 minute crowd initiated delay?

Also raises another question-- if the SEC office is so concerned over sportsmanship and sideline safety, what fines and other reprimands have they issued against Georgia for their grown adult head coach assaulting an opposing 20-year-old player during a fit of childish rage on the sideline a week ago?

We'll be sure to send that $250K check just as soon as they answer that question for us.

This.  Not only did the refs cave to the trash, Etienne had to score that last td twice and the 2nd targeting call was as bad as the trash call.  The announcers and the officials analyst could not believe what the refs were calling.  Did  not matter but it was obvious the refs were intimidated.

I was a little disappointed in UT's throw-crap-on-the-field game.  At LSU we throw piss bags on the field.  You may screw our team temporarily, but the scent of human waste will be with you forever. 

I feel like we have a much better caliber crowd-thuggery.

They did nothing of course, as I noted last week.   If they had done something perhaps it would have been a "big deal".  As it is, it's forgotten, by most.

Funny how that happens. The botched 2nd-half kickoff led to Texas' first score of the 2nd half.

8-4 was realistic this year. Now 5-7 seems likely. I don't see any conference wins in the games remaining. 

So, you wanna just cancel Thanksgiving weekend, or what?

Yes we all know you don't believe it was a problem, and we all knew the SEC wouldn't do anything about it.  I think that says it all, right there.

I was a little disappointed in UT's throw-crap-on-the-field game.  At LSU we throw piss bags on the field.  You may screw our team temporarily, but the scent of human waste will be with you forever.

It was only our second "real" SEC game, you'll have to give us a little time to learn the proper SEC way of doing things. :)

I didn't think it was a particularly poorly officiated game.  Re:  the flag the refs picked up, maybe they were scared or caving to pressure, but the flag never should've been thrown, so justice was done.  

I can't remember a flag being picked up since our 2006 anger-fest against Auburn.

I agreed with the targeting calls.  Only one that surprised me this weekend was our LB who was flagged for targeting but got a reprieve on review.  It was the kind of hit I hate to see called, but I've seen it called dozens of times, I think it was technically targeting, and I thought for sure he was gone.
