This Game is Rigged

USC hold badly every play. No call. Missed facemask, bad spots. They aren’t even hiding it .
And don't forget the roughness penalty on Wetjen's return. He's standing out of bounds by a couple of yards, a USC guy comes along and drills him, somebody throws a flag, but then the officials huddle and say, "Who the hell threw that flag? What were you thinking? Pick the damn thing up."
And so they did.

Not rigged. USC just has play makers who continue to make plays. We don’t. We knew thier D would tighten up. Ours hasn’t
Yah, that was a helluva play by USC when that deflected pass went directly into their hands. Another brilliant play when their RB fumbles, four Hawkeyes around it, and USC recovers. Not to mention Wetjen makes the catch at the 7 with two minutes to go and slides out of bounds by, what, half an inch? That's some damn brilliant playmaking all right. Don't know why KF can't pull that stuff off. :rolleyes:

Refs blew dirty Aholes. What was worse though was our QB yet again playing like complete trash and missing open throws.

it’s hearwarming that you think making more open throws wouldn’t have triggered a few more opportune calls

USC will be a first round loser in the CFP.

They won’t get to hold every play in those games. And then their line play will rear its ugly head.

Iowa definitely got at best the C crew today. They didn't make things easy for Iowa. Made a lot of questionable no calls, and ending the game how they did is questionable too. They definitely aren't the reason though why Iowa couldn't stop the USC receivers.

He didn't "slide out of bounds". He jumped when he didn't need to, otherwise he lands in bounds. Late pass + unnecessary jump = incompletion.

No and their QB is amazing. Great pocket awareness, very accurate, and on time with his throws, (MG's biggest weakness).
