The calls were not for hand fighting, but for pushes in the back. Very different.

Please JUST STOP! Thank Gawd I don't live in Denver anymore cause I would be dealing with the sh!t you guys are about to this morning. Don't be foolish about it. In the history of the sport I don't think there has EVER been a game with 3 OPI's called. Personally I've never seen it and i'm old. Ya'll better think of some proper rebuttals this morning before you head in.

Butch deserves every bit of it. He's an insecure little puke as evidenced by the food cart hide, and questioning his players before the tennessee game. You got my back? Dude seriously lives in fear.

Who has to rebut what? Are you talking to the Pac-12 refs?

I'm done talking about it.
No it isn't.
I'm glad we got the benefit of some bad calls. FINALLY!! We deserved it.
Yes, there were 3 OPI's penalties, they were for a hand on the back and they are controversial. But they were NOT for hand-fighting. Perhaps your age has caught up to you?
he seems like your kind of person lol
Yes seeing three OPI's in a game is highly unusual. Seeing poor officiating from PAC12 (and college in general) crews is not.
First off we have already covered the three OPIs. The first one on replay shows a clear grab and pull. Does this get ignored sometimes yes but it is the classic example of the penalty. Second one was flagged by two different officials, again by the rule it was there. Third one was a bad call, official called the stumble and fall which was wrong but is something often called on both the offense and the defense at times, bad call but not outrageous.
We have seen plenty of questionable to terrible officiating in recent years. Buffs and other teams have lost key players for a full game because of phantom targeting calls, we have seen face mask calls missed on one side and then a hand to the chest called a face mask on the other.
In this game the bad or questionable calls hurting the sheep were highly visible, what wasn't highly visible was the blatant and constant holding by the CSU OL throughout the game especially the second half with multiple pass rushers getting tackled and no flag.
Bottom line, the officials had an influence on the game but they didn't change the outcome. CU was going to win that game either way.
Blaming officials for a loss is a convenient way of avoiding the obvious, your team wasn't good enough to win. Sadly for the team up north they are used to finding excuses for why they weren't good enough.

Left Denver because of whining from CSU fans?
Is that less of a reason than I-70 traffic?

I-70 is serious business.
My type is like a Coach Chev as HC. I think I would be totally on his bandwagon and in an annoying way. One day....
