Hebert Holding Penalty

After I watched it 5 times in a row, I think it was bullshyt. So someone help me out. On the running play when Ridely scored, Hebert didnt grab the guys jersey, he blocked him for a few seconds and pushed him to the ground. Is that considered holding?

 

The ref that called it was from the SEC, so that tells you all you need to know right there.

 

Yeah, I watched it multiple times, too.

Its never surprising when the officials miss a close call, or even a blatant infraction, but it just amazes me when the officials are making up calls when obviously no penalty took place.

Just get ready for another season of hallucinating half-blind SEC officials. It was the voices that told him Hebert held.

I was wondering about this myself. Can anyone post a video of the play?

Thanks.

 

Hebert certainly didn't think he was holding. Herbie/Brent commented how he was making his case with the alleged officials.

 

On Bobby's radio show last night T-Bob told him he thought that was his best block all night.

 

If nobody else gets to it before then I'll try to cut up the film and post it tonight.

 

please do. that was a big turning point.

so. sec officials miss the blatant stuff, even on review (see multiple games last year), and also possibly make up stuff that isnt there.

and they wonder why no sec fan with half a brain thinks we have decent officials. or have a commissioner who cares to have decent officials.

 

Then TV may not necessarily show that since the camera's following the ball carrier. I'll put it up just the same.
