MSU Red Cedar Message Board

they would never apologize because the refs were following orders from the B1G to "watch msu closely" for penalties. They did want they were told and probably received nice gift baskets

Agree. I feel it's been this way most of the season. I also think they are instructed to allow Will and Rush to be held any given play.

I would prefer a public whipping of Bill Lemonnier.

This.

I agree with this.

The worst part is that the media and everybody just glossed over it like it never happened.

It would be a waste of time to ask for an apology. I would rather see all our (State's) Big Ten games officiated by SEC crews. Our refs look like they have never officiated a game before.

I don't think we should have to ask for one. It is the big Ten's responsibility to admit when the errors were so bad that they might have effected the outcome of the game. The one time I remember them doing it was when they said as much after incorrectly ruling two fumbles or something in UM's favor against Illinois 10 years or so ago.

I would expect something like "we looked at the video and determined JA's block was legal and that was not PI. The two calls obviously impacted the outcome of the game. Official X has been suspended from doing Big Ten games for the remainder of the year"

This is not going to get us a win or even an asterik, but without such an admittance then the credibility suffers. Since I'm not into this whole MSU conspiracy theory, this seems like a reasonable expectation to get such a statement from the Big ten office

You guys are such a bunch of whiny, pussy-ass babies that it makes me sick. You think every team that feels jobbed by the refs is owed a formal fucking apology? Maybe a nice foot massage and some chocolates too? WTF?

Hi, please join us! Signed, reality.
