I agree, that one was a legit call, if ticky-tack. Which was part of my


complaint. They were calling the ticky-tack stuff on VT, but not on BC. There was one play where a BC defender dove on JJ after he was down, folding him in half. JJ got up furious calling for a flag, nothing. But that out of bounds light contact drew 15 yards (yeah it met the definition of a penalty because it was a couple yards out of bounds, but it was pretty minor and had the potential to significantly change the game). I don't recall seeing any completely phantom calls (although it was hard to tell because ESPN clearly had their "B" squad covering the game when it came to showing replays), but most of the penalties where there was subjective interpretation from the refs went against VT but not against BC (false starts don't have much wiggle room for the refs, and it's about the only thing they called BC on). I mean at the end of the day, big deal, we won, but I think VT covers the 16.5 point spread without ref interference.
