I'm sure I'll get flamed for this, but in the 2nd and 3rd quarters, WHAT was with the officiating? OSU makes a great defensive stand, then gets nabbed with the "roughing the kicker" penalty, which completely changed the game from manageable to out of reach. Toss in about 3 or 4 personal fouls for guys running their mouths or a very questionable late hit call, and it seemed like LSU was starting at OSU's 30 every time they touched the ball. Not to mention, the only personal foul they even showed on replay, LSU's player had a Buckeye in a choke hold, and the Buckeye just got flagged on a retaliation shove.
It just seems to me that the refs were on a bigger bandwagon than the media was for this one.
Congrats GEORGIA on their national championship.
