No Call Holds

[Frog_Fan71]

The scheissing refs should be fired for swallowing their whistles when those scheiss are holding on every series.

It's truly pathetic that we get called for holding and neither of their tackles are being called for holding our DE'S. Damn near every TD pass has been the result of holding our DE's.

Can't wait for Douchefiled to be gone and so glad TCU didn't offer his sorry ass.

scheiss OU and scheiss the Big12 leadership not doing anything about the puss poor ferry situation.

Bench Hill's ass too!

They've called loose both ways. Hard to complain on that.

 

[Frogs1983]

Yeh the refs missed some calls, but no doubt OU was the better team this year, regardless of any missed calls.

 

[Punter1]

I was cool with the no holds policy...we got one then they did...

 

[Austintxfrog94]

It will be curious to see how OU does with holding and other calls in the playoffs. TCU definitely got beat today no matter what the refs called.

 

[Realtorfrog]

Need to watch the game but #72 held many times from my seats, and they were farther away than the refs were.

Hicks was on a mission after his fumble and ran all over them in the 2nd quarter and then we throw three straight times to open the second half....... hmmmmmm.

Game was definitely called differently the second half.

 

[researchfrog]

Sometimes I wonder if our OL needs to learn how to hold better to compete with OU, like when we first got into the Big 12 and our corners and receivers had to learn to be more physical.

Undeniably and inexcusably.

 

[Hoosierfrog]

This didn’t cost us the game, but some of those were egregious.

 

[notyalc]

I would have preferred a game where the refs were tough on holding. Definitely favored OU and their size advantage. And we got screwed more than a few times. That said we were clearly beaten by a better team.

Agree. There were no calls on both sides. I'd raher them let the players play than throw a bunch of flags all game. Both sides benefitted imo.

 

[TxFrog1999]

Called it the same both ways, but it certainly doesn't help speed rushers if the OL can hold all day. Would rather they called it and were consistent with both teams than to let the big guys man handle the defense all day.

 

[Pharm Frog]

Holding calls will never benefit the Frogs when they run that slide blocking scheme. Our holds become so much more in the open and other teams' holds are usually in the interior or barely on the edge. We just don't have the horses to man-up and blow people off the line so we scheme with lateral movement and that puts you in proximity to the officials and makes it more likely that you'll get your hands outside the pads. I still maintain that the holding call on Cole downfield was BS. If you are gonna set the tone with your no-calls in the first half, you gotta keep that tendency in the second half. The holding call on them was nowhere close to as egregious as what went on in the first half. It was a make-even call IMO.

I thought the hold on Hunt was pretty weak as well. More tangled arms than anything. Was suprised they called it after all the calls they let go before that.

I was not surprised.

I was not surprised.

I suppose I shouldn't have been. Damn eternal optimist in me.

Hate the slide stuff but as you said we don't have the size and strength to move people off the ball. Having said that, for a team that was somewhat one dimensional this year we ran it pretty effectively
