Pitt Cuse

[rmf05]

Nice stop.

 

[pittman71]

I’ve never seen that called in college football.

it is the rule, probably implemented the same time the NFL revised their rule

 

[DruidTM]

How long does it take to figure out 4th down?

Are these guys paid for this incompetent behavior?

 

[PittInMissouri]

How can none of the refs or the chains guys have any idea what down it is?

ACC officiating *shrug*

 

[pittman71]

I am beginning to feel sorry for these refs. They are that bad

 

[raleighpanther]

I am beginning to feel sorry for these refs. They are that bad

Pitt came to play; the refs didn't.

 

[Farnox]

Ok minimal damage on the turnover.

 

[rmf05]

it is the rule, probably implemented the same time the NFL revised their rule

No it isn't. That is an NFL rule.

 

[BFo8]

It’s almost understandable to lose track of downs in a frenzied end of game situation, but to do it in the 1st quarter of a somewhat ho hum game is inexcusable.

 

[MrPups]

Feel like I just watched an extended pharma commercial for a new Alzheimers drug.

 

[Dewey Eye]

Did we miss kickoff? Lol

 

[pittman71]

No it isn't. That is an NFL rule.

I just quoted verbatim the college rule

 

[PittHOFs]

Why don’t you accept that penalty?? They don’t gain a yard it’s a 42 yrd field goal. 3rd goal from 25.

 

[RingDinger]

Carter Warren is getting abused.

 

[pittman71]

Pitt came to play; the refs didn't.

ACC refs are never ready. It is truly sad. I’d be angry if I thought they were cheating but they are just incompetent

 

[pittman71]

Lol another bad call

 

[kma0043]

That’s a touchdown

 

[PittHOFs]

Wow are these officials horrendous!

 

[BFo8]

Definitely backwards. Pickett took that little crow hop that made it look like it was going forward.

 

[pittman71]

Don’t be so sure they will overturn it announcers

 

[DiehardPanther]

These officials are awful. That should be a TD. Good job by the replay official.

 

[rmf05]

Why don’t you accept that penalty?? They don’t gain a yard it’s a 42 yrd field goal. 3rd goal from 25.

Because their kicker is very good and no chance for a defensive penalty.

 

[PittLegends]

Refs are garbage again, what a shock.

 

[Farnox]

Razzle dazzle. TD

 

[California Gold]

These refs ‍♂️

 

[DruidTM]

Back ward pass

Again they get paid for this incompetence???

 

[Farnox]

These refs ‍♂️

SUCK!

 

[SouthSidePanther]

Refs should be in a nursing home.

 

[NGPittCali]

None of the passes were pretty, but all were caught!

 

[rmf05]

What a ragged game.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

And not only are the refs bad, but that replay should have taken somewhere around five seconds to reverse. What in the heck were they looking at that took so long to recognize the obvious?

 

[HailToPitt725]

There’s no Southern schools to help out in this game so they’re malfunctioning...

 

[raleighpanther]

The refs were wrong again, but the sideline ref was at the line of scrimmage and from his angle, I can see why he guessed that it was forward.

 

[raleighpanther]

Pitt needs to score two more TDs to get comfortable, so they can let the Cuse go on a long unanswered scoring run.

 

[Joe the Panther Fan]

I can see why he guessed that it was forward.

Refs aren't supposed to guess. If you didn't see it you don't call it.

 

[PittLegends]

Matthews first Receiving TD . Congrats

 

[gopitt1976]

In the nfl and college football referees are ruining the game. This has become like WWF. Outcomes are determined before the game and the refs job is to steer the game in the favor of the predetermined winner. They used to have plausible deniability but with these blantently bad calls they are losing that deniability. The emperor has no clothes!

 

[California Gold]

Then on the explanation the referee proceeded on saying “There were THREE passes on the play”

WTF.

When’s a backwards pitch considered a pass?

 

[rmf05]

53 minute quarter.

 

[raleighpanther]

None of the passes were pretty, but all were caught!

Pickett should've put more air under that pass to Matthews. He was wide open, and the pass was a bullet, and he almost dropped it.
