Refs ruin Rutgers vs USF game?

does anybody else think that the game was rigged and that USF was robbed of a win??????

Update:

haha...i am not a usf fan or a rutgers fan..i really could have cared less about the game....i just thought the refs seemed a little one sided....the one fumble they called a forward pass i think was the wrong call..and the pass interference on that last play could have gone either way...thats all i was saying

    The idea is to play well enough that an allegedly questionable call by the ref does not hurt your team.

    Why is it that if a close call goes FOR your team it is a great call, but if it goes aginst your team, the game is rigged?

    No. If the refs hadn't made that cheesy holding call on Rutgers, they would have run out the clock and USF wouldn't have had the ball to get the pass interference call against them.

    The refs didn't do anything wrong.

    USF lost. They had chances and didn't follow through. Remember the kicker missed 2 field goals.

    nope overrated USF straight up lost the game with stupid mental penalties they have no one to blame but themselves. I mean come on when a guy is a step and a half out of bounds you dont hit him everybody knows that. They blew it nothing else to it.

    USF was not playing mental football. they lost it themselves, not the refs. on top of that, what happened to their qb in the 4th quarter? i couldn't believe how bad he all of a sudden became. he held onto the ball way too long. instead of beating the blitz with slant routes, he kept trying to throw deep. they just blew it in the 4th quarter. in other words, USF choked.

    Only USF fans. Blaming the refs is lame.

    refs dont win or lose a game. there are bad calls in every single game. like the guy above me said, "blaming the refs is lame"

    HELL YES!!!!!! how can the NCAA let the refs decide a close game like that is beyond me. that last flag is the only reason Rutgers won that wasn't even a push off I guess the defender is allowed to just run into the receiver now.

    Face it, they LOST. Don't cry about it.....not the 1st loss & won't be the last.

    I'm going to guess you are from Tampa??????? Right????

    I figure this because I was in Tampa recently and found out people in Tampa can't win with claa. Now I may see they can't lose with class. Sorry but it hurts doesn't it.
