Take a gander at this one. We at least have a sense of humor about the ass whipping.

Raiderpower.  I started to do it...did it till about halftime, then got tired and clicked out of the window and went to bed.

They bitched about the officiating a lot, and hate their team.

I'm not even 100% sure they have reliable Internet access in Lubbock, since RectumTech and tetuanfan111 or whatever were the only 2 people to show up here.

hey guys! daris here. i just read the first two pages of the officiating thread so you didn't have to!

At what point does this get addressed?

No doubt we aren't a good team, but the officiating is getting to the point where it is hindering our development.

Thoughts?

Quote
Rhodes atleast is making an effort.



Quote
You think the officiating is bad in this game, just wait till we're playing well against an undefeated Baylor team in Dallas. When you compare their late hits that won't get called compared to our petty bumps on Petty or the bears tackling our receivers with no calls and our DB's getting called for interference for the slightest brush. Levi's helmet will get pulled off-NO Call. Two plays later they'll call him for illegal hands to the face.

Quote
Yes, no doubt we are young and undisciplined.

That being said, it's pretty clear the game is not being called on an equal level.

Quote
It is being called on a devastating level for us. It is as if the Ref's "scruntiny" increases with our success in a series of downs, to the point of predictability.

To add insult to injury the level of scrutiny decreases for our opponents as they have success in a series..

Quote
We lost to a better team tonight, but Big XII officiating has reached a point where I feel like I'm watching WWF.

Quote
but it was loud and clear that we were NOT going to get a fair shake.

Quote
the officials appear to have it out for Tech.

Give me a break calls:

Justin Nelson's alleged PI
JJ Gains knock the ball down "Unsportsmanlike conduct" after an incomplete pass.
TD reversal on ball alleged hitting the ground.  This was bogus considering the Lockett "catch" below.
Personal foul against #9 on kick return.  The pushing was mutual at best.

Omitted calls against KSU:

Two shoves in the back of TTU Dline which led to big gains.
Lockett catch hitting the ground but it was ruled a completion.
Holding by KSU on the right side to get their second TD.


Quote
I tend to agree that the stripes are beating us down as well

Quote
The announcers droned on and on about KSU being the least penalized team. Problem is, there were easily a half dozen flags that should have been thrown against the Cats


Quote
I'm not sure when it changed but K-State teams of the mid to late 90s were VERY bad about penalties, especially those of the 15 yard and personal foul variety. Somewhere along the way their reputation changed. But let me tell you, they're just not called for it. They're out there committing them but these suckwad officials don't flag them for it regularly.
See the ref bias thread. ...it's very true! It explains a lot.


Quote
It's okay (if annoying) when the commentators are clueless, but the refs affect the outcome of the game.

Quote
I'm going to be real curious to see what happens to the Iowa St AD who called them out. Knowing full well he will get fined but saying something has to be done. Maybe more coaches need to. Sooner or later the message has got to get through...



Quote
The refs are obviously biased against Tech. Sure, we have our own problems right now and yes we are committing penalties, but come on, man! The things that Tech is being penalized for are not being assessed on the other team for the same things!

Quote
maybe KK can designate someone to scream at the officials for such calls while he concentrates on the next play. Wouldn't that be something if that approach worked?

Quote
check out our play at :15 or so left in the game. Our WR got a hip grab and spin that prevented him from catching the ball. I don't care how much time is left or how far down we are. If you call some crap penalty on our guy for a phantom PI hip grab, you gotta stay consistent and call this. That was such BS how the announcers backed that one up too.


Quote
they continue to call ticky tack penalties against us but not against the other team. The ticky tack fouls will always be there for the calling. It's a catch 22 and there is no way out of it.


Quote
there comes a point when enough is enough.

I'm really trying to take the high road, trying to say we're at fault, that KState is way better, that our penalties were all on us....

But it 'taint that way.


Quote


Quote
SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THE BIASED OFFICIATING! It's getting to the point where I don't want to watch the Tech games anymore when I know the referees are biased against us.

Quote
start getting on the officials for ticky-tack calls being called on Tech and not on the other team!  Let the refs (and your players) know you mean business!

Quote
Keep red flags on the sideline and display them as the refs earn them. The visual will let the refs know everyone is watching. Better it could be done in the stands as to not draw additional penalties on the sideline


Quote
So with that limited knowledge of the zebras off the field....I find it very irritating that they are not fined or penalized immediately.  Suspend from games, dock a portion of pay. DO SOMETHING.


Quote
Kirby needs to get on board and speak out. We can afford the fine.

Tech is a throw away team in this conference and Kstate is a golden boy/goose that lays golden eggs.  Which one would you protect with totally biased officiating?

I'm starting to think the disparity in penalties for KSU vs ISU was just a case of miscommunication between the refs and their handlers.

Tech: The ISU of the South!

The problem is clearly officiating.  Rewarding an unproven coach with a 10 year contract after a mediocre season is not to blame here.  These losery fanbases enable losery results.

That's what makes it a perfect crime: ISU and TTech are so insignificant in the CFB landscape that no is going to bother to investigate.  Why would you?  It's like investigating a millionaire celebrity for forging postage stamps.

As the years collectively roll on I couldn't be more impressed with the laundry list of things that K-State controls.   From law enforcement agencies across the country, the NCAA, bowl officials, and now the refs.

Pretty incredible.

I like how they are such enormous loserfaces that they apparently have a master thread complaining about calls that go against them

The suckwad officials probably read it and get all angry at them.

You just can't help but feel sorry for Tech.  I mean, if the zebras didn't just zero in and gang up and make Tech the most penalized team in the Big XII they would totally be undefeated.

To be fair, a lot of posters there qualify their pissing and moaning with the caveat that they're a crappy team and would not have won anyway.

They are not as losery as ISU in that respect.  ISU actually thinks they would win the games that they get destroyed in

Remember, only mouth-breathing loser dorks think of officiating as anything other than a constant variable that, at best, will make a majority of objectively correct calls and have a minimal negative effect on the game. By its very nature, it will never be flawless and to suggest that your team got "screwed" is only to openly admit to your lack of understanding of the concept and to participate in an act of complete futility.
