I'm assuming a touchdown is 6 points with a possibility of missing the additional point. Just based on the facts without the gift from the refs yes this is a loss.


They gifted Tulsa with a lot of holds that weren't called and silly PI calls. It's a wash at worst. They were by far the worst refs that have stepped onto that field since I've started watching SMU. They deserve a good mugging and tipping their car over.

You do realize the game would have been played differently from that point on. No way to know what would have happened. If nothing else changed, we would have kicked a game winning FG at the end rather than running out the clock.

They kicked a field goal on the possession, so it was a 4 point swing, not a 7 point swing... if you are really going down that path, it is an OT game...

Well come on guys can you imagine this board if it was the other way around lol

I don't like the rule the whole concept of running as fast as you can and hitting somebody as hard as you can mixed with testosterone ...... First it's a slight motion of the leg or hand and then it's running back to the sideline like an airplane come on man - let the Warriors celebrate thier achievements

Talk to the NCAA. It’s not our rule. I agree it is stupid. It was just as bad that that Tulsa kid got a 15 yard penalty on the kickoff for a spike after an earlier TD. He just slammed the ball down a little hard. Nothing in a taunting manner or excessive celebration. It allowed us to get a 50 yard return.

But you know what? Our kids are not doing it because they have been coached not to.

It is never NECESSARY to taunt. I like the rule, celebrate with your guys in the end zone and on the sidelines. What's so hard about that kind of self-discipline? Could you'd ever see Navy pull that stunt. Plus Tulsa seemed to be trash talking the whole game. So screw 'em.

Surprised we are talking officiating and no one here is bringing up the too many men on the field penalty where we got totally screwed. That was more inept than I have seen an officiating crew be in many years on that call.
