10 Eyes Not Enough (Matty Baiungo)
REPLAY = Refs End Plays Like Ass Yoles
Replay. Some like it. Some don’t. As sports bettors, we fall into both categories depending upon if the reversal or lack thereof helps our chances to win a bet. Looking at this from a fan’s perspective, I have some problems with the college replay system. The Texas / Texas Tech game was almost unbearable to watch despite it being a heck of a game that also had some financial interest riding on Tech. It seemed like every other play was being reviewed which slowed the game down way too much. There were 5 guys in the replay booth at Tech, and they still blew numerous calls. Five guys in the booth, but only one at the GT / Miami Fla game and he must have been on a piss break when there was no review on an INT (see write-up). The college system needs to adapt the NFL’s system which only reviews plays that have a coach’s challenge unless there’s less than two minutes. Go out and hire competent officials or revise the replay system. It’s that simple.
