UF deserves officiating like the traditional powers

The fact that so many teams consistently get the "benefit of the doubt" speaks to serious problems within the sport itself. Human error is always going to be a factor that you can't eliminate; but when certain teams get the benefit of the doubt at the expense of other teams, it only kills the integrity of the game.

I wasn't pissed off at the fact UF wasn't getting any calls...I was pissed off at the fact Ole Miss was getting so many. IF you're going to ref a tight game--call it tight both ways. It's simply inexcusable to single out one team to call things tight on and let the other team do what they will simply because one team is winning and the other isn't. The refs are there to ensure fairness--and tonight, they did anything but. I don't think advocating for "preferential" treatment is the right way to balance it out...all I'd want is for them to do their jobs fairly.
