I always thought I knew a little about the game but can some of you that knows more than me just HTF that call was made and stand ?

If Williams had been on the line of scrimmage instead of 4 or 5 feet off the ball, he would have been "covered up" and as such, he would have been an ineligible receiver.

Seeing as how he was not, I can't understand how that can possibly be called....especially a few seconds after the snap. I understand how officials miss stuff that happens but I will never understand how they see shit that didn't happen.

Miss a false start? Ok, I get it.
Invent a holding? Umm...how?

It isn't a play that's reviewable so that's how it stands. They need to start punishing officials for obvious blown calls like that.

Only thing I can figure is the official thought the guy that was covered up caught the ball. That would be the only explanation. But those assholes should have convened and corrected the call. Surely 1 person on that crew saw what really happened

What in the blue fck are you talking about Bill? Can you highlight where I said that this was why we lost or where I said Oklahoma didn't play better than Bama?

How you come up with crap like this I'll never understand.
No matter whether you win if lose Bama is always griping about something like this.

Bill, context matters...re-read the thread. The OP asked a specific question and I answered it specifically. I truly don't understand how or why you're going off on this retarded tangent.

Oklahoma beat our ass. That horrible call wasn't the difference in the game and NOT A SINGLE PERSON has intimated otherwise.
