Tom Ritter and crew will be officiating LSU/Bama

I knew it! As soon as I saw the thread title, I knew it was gonna be him! I can't stand that ahole! His big nasty buggy eyes! He loves calling penalties. I hope the game doesn't come down to one of his or his crew members calling a controversial call, unless it's against bama, but it seems like this guy always goes with the home team...see the above botched call that cost us the game in 09' in Tuscaloosa!

I didn't title "the best sec ref ever", just to clarify.

Tom Ritter calling a bama game reminds me of this (if it was baseball)

Can I be optimistic for a little while?

I had a dream that the SEC front office has already decided that LSU should play for the National Championship. So, Ritter and crew have been properly instructed and will make sure that a few well-timed, marginal calls go in the Tigers' favor.

I'll try to keep the dream alive for a few more days. Maybe even until the opeing kickoff . . . when LSU receives and promptly gets called for a block in the back at its 10 yard line.

 

I kind of agree with above. Both teams are primed to get in so no bias for one or the other. I can dream, can't I?

 

I am not worried about Tom

We win by 10 plus points nothing that Tom can do about it !

 

Sec officials will always cheat for Alabama teams. The sec office is in Alabama, staffed by people who live in Alabama and are fans of bama teams. I would bet that if you spied on sec refs during the summer you would see 75% of them wearing either an Alabama or auburn cap everywhere they went.

 

Ritter smirks with every penalty against LSU. I would have rathered Wagers.

 

I would've rathered a Big 12 crew.

 

i would have rathered blind monkeys.

 

I would have preferred that we don't use the term "rathered".
