[QUOTE="Squints, post: 137578, member: 822"] Look I'm not saying that ref bias doesn't exist. I'm the saying the extent it exists and affects games is overstated. Especially when it comes to our fan base when playing against UGA and the SEC which I'm pretty sure we all despise. I'm not looking to have another post off with you (I already owe you two monster posts) so let's agree to disagree. It may not be ridiculous to examine demeanor and facial expression but I think it's ridiculous to take any worthwhile observations from it. Nobody here is a mind reader, body language expert, knows anything about how the referees carry themselves outside of this one game to compare, and nobody here is unbiased. I'd challenge someone to find an instance in that game where the demeanor and the facial expressions of the referees reveals anything one way or another. In my original post I was responding someone specifically talking about this play. Watch it and tell me what, if anything, the refs due to support the thought they were rooting for UGA. You can't even see their faces. What makes this call different from the hundreds of other close field goals called over the course of a season? I'd put my money on nothing. Feels like there's a bit of a persecution complex going on which I guess I get when it comes to UGA and the SEC but come on. [MEDIA=youtube]id=nCYDE_P9AKM;t=28[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
