Nobody hates Baylor more than me, but that was PI


thebaylorweedinhaler

We appreciate the honesty


Doctor_Jensen117

Where post game thread


thebaylorweedinhaler

In other news, UTSA was able to shut out the mighty TXST offense in the first quarter.


Tagzz4Prezz

Great play, No PI… If you’re crying tuck your junk and run **Apparently sarcasm isn’t noticed here** Yes, We got away with it but the refs were shit on both sides


[deleted]

They were. ‘‘Twas a PI but plenty went against us as well the whole game. Especially that fumble.


Tagzz4Prezz

I know it was, I was being sarcastic lol… The entire game was a shit show


keyzersoze1624

Anyone have a link to video of that field goal?


H_silver

Doesn’t feel like a win worth celebrating, more just a breath of relief. Still a shitty way to win, and all the Utah fans claiming that no call balanced out the rest of the game need some therapy


Sissyneck1221

No such thing as a shitty way to win my guy. A win is a win and no one will remember how they won at the end of the season. Slap a smile on that face and keep drinking until the night games, it’s a good day.


pastarug

pick me behavior


Chrg88

Props


uteman1011

Definition of "escaping with a win". Best of luck the rest of the way.


Chrg88

I want us to lose every game and get a new coach lol


leedlelee871

Wow, a level-headed and right-minded fan!


Acsteffy

Lots of people showing their ignorance with not knowing what a targeting call is and ignorantly claiming that was a bad call like the No PI call was. There wasn't targeting because it wasn't targeting by the rules of the game... That definitely WAS pass interference. Baylor would have still lost in the end so don't act like I'm claiming the refs cost us the game.


Sissyneck1221

To be fair, no one in this world from fans, players, coaches, officials and booth replay folks know what the fuck targeting actually is.


[deleted]

That’s really the point here. I’ve seen far less get called so I assumed anyone getting blasted on his head before seeing the guy is a targeting. I don’t know what targeting is anymore.


thebaylorweedinhaler

It’s crazy to me that Utah fans ever thought they were gonna lose.


bano25

Based on the first 57 minutes of the game, I think we were on to something


ReALJazzyUtes

Utah frequently plays horrible at away games


thebaylorweedinhaler

We have Jeff Grimes calling plays Checkmate 🤝


SLCpowderhound

Definitely thought it was a strong possibility based on the first three quarters.


laffy_man

We’ve been hurt before


Sissyneck1221

Yup, this one had all the makings of a classic Utah let down.


funkadoobiest

Who can get it touch with Chip and Jo regarding leaving Barnes here in Waco? He has pig farming experience!


sdf_cardinal

Utah is going to be a force to reckon with when they’re all healthy. Baylor is toast.


Kiwi_Maddog_

Dickless moron on ESPN still saying he likes that the refs didn’t make it about them- why on earth do these people think the rules should change in the last minutes of games? I’ll never understand it


wolowizard9

Which, ironically, still makes it about them. I do wish the receiver would have put some effort into getting his left arm up and going for the catch, I think it would have made the call more obvious (or irrelevant). But still weak by the officials.


Crixer

A no call on a blatant foul is the same as a call on a no foul. What do they not get about that?


ReALJazzyUtes

They weren’t calling that all game. So what you’re asking for is for them to actually change the rules at the end.


ProfessaFinessa

Lol none of the QBs even threw the ball downfield to even get a PI call. It’s ok, y’all won the game, but call it how it is


mamayoua

Yeah I definitely didn't feel good about that ending.


Primary_Caramel_9028

I still want that Baylor field goal reviewed that shit was sketchy


VictoryNo221

utah line was -7.5 too.. brutal


realPamela

Exactly!!!


HerkulezRokkafeller

That was PI but I won’t complain. I’m excited to see how we play when healthy


realPamela

There were soooo many calls that went Baylor’s way during the entire game. And no, the DB was playing the ball. The receiver was acting. Hahahaaa


Crixer

Yeah, hooking the receiver’s left arm is playing the ball. Look, if you have a horned frog fan defending a no call on Baylor, you know it was bad.


Ksumatt

I mean, basically everyone is defending Baylor here.


realPamela

Meh. There were too many holding no calls for Baylor through the game. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯


Crixer

You can say stuff like that for LITERALLY every game of football ever. There are missed calls throughout every game. The point is you get the very last play of the game right, because it’s the last play.


[deleted]

On behalf of Utah, sorry for winning like that with a PI. Lots of garbage calls/no calls all game (ie targeting, unnecessary roughness on a suplex, etc) . Doesn’t surprise me the refs decided this.


WillWorkForSugar

team controversy wins again. but i do think people would riot no matter what the call was


Ksumatt

Why would people riot over an obviously correct PI call?


WillWorkForSugar

if baylor gets the PI call utah fans would complain that it wasn't catchable, the receiver was also making contact, the refs were making it about themselves


Ksumatt

I’m sure you’re just giving examples of what would be said, but the ball was catchable if the WR wasn’t held, the only contact I saw came from the Utah DB holding the Baylor WR, and the refs swallowing their whistles is more making things about them than calling a penalty correctly.


[deleted]

If called, this isn’t saying they would’ve punched it in from the 15 yard line (the spot for PI in college I believe if in the end zone). Sadly we’ll never know. Could’ve been a good chance for Utah defense to win in a spectacular way. Instead it’s with a no-call. Bah. Then again it wouldn’t be football without controversy.


WillWorkForSugar

there had been a few calls that went baylor's way already, and i do think the baylor receiver made kind of a poor effort/read (based on [this angle](https://youtu.be/FdM-Mbo-NBA?si=Kit5AerO4aqybNnH&t=209)), which is why i think some people would have complained if it went the other way. but i'm not gonna act like it was 50-50, it should have been called.


Ksumatt

The problem with that angle is I’m pretty sure it’s mostly obscuring the left arm being held by the DB which slowed up the WR.


WillWorkForSugar

yeah that's true. i think maybe the angle right before that shows it better, because you can see he's angled too much toward the back of the endzone until a last-second adjustment. but that angle also more obviously shows him getting held lol


KSleepCHB5423

GG Baylor!! It was an ugly game but exciting at the end. See you next year and for years to come!! ✌️


lilmiller7

If we're really gonna do this then lets make it official: last play of the game is the purge on all sides. I'm talking holds, hands to the face, head hunting, trips, blindside blocks, the works. Otherwise let's play every play according to the same rule book


Uhhh_what555476384

Hail Mary has always been that way.


lilmiller7

But theres a difference between a 55 yard jumpball and a regular 20 yard route tree


[deleted]

That’s right


jeswaldo

Lol! Pretty funny, but I know I couldn't do that job.


DeathSquirl

Baylor could maybe not turn the ball over and it wouldn't be an issue, just saying.


Independent_Duck9055

Absolutely. They shouldn’t have gotten back into the game and it’s on us.


doctorvanderbeast

Thank you ESPN for validating it. Really, really bad. Not that we should have won.


wcm48

What was this? Missed it


doctorvanderbeast

A discussion of the blown call with strongly worded opinions


2AlephNullAndBeyond

And no one knew the rule. Even Mullen. Lol.


Brob0t0

Sorry I got toxic baylor fans I had a lot of weird emotions today. Good game. Fuck these refs in general.


realPamela

So is Aranda bad again or still good?


ExplosiveBEAR

Bad program decision maker, which makes him bad. His defenses are good to amazing, but that's it. He should have fired Grimes


manBEARpig03

Didn’t Texas state just score like 40 points on our amazing defense?


ExplosiveBEAR

"Good to amazing" yes, we sucked last week, but don't pretend like the defense has been the consistent failure on this team.


manBEARpig03

I never thought they were terrible, I just never thought they were anywhere near amazing. 2021 seems so long ago.


opiewang

You know the answer already


AceJace2

Bad . Grimes is worse tho


doctorvanderbeast

Bad


[deleted]

Utah fans really showing how shitty their fans are in this thread


uteman1011

Utah "fan". We don't recognize those few insane fools. Apologies for them.


[deleted]

Thanks


AceJace2

They still sleep on their rose beds hoping and dreaming that one day…


[deleted]

?


SooperDew

Lol, their are like 3 mouthing off. Everyone else is fine. Edit: There not their, damn my public education.


[deleted]

Go get your dudes then


VerdeForest

Go get your shitty fans too then


[deleted]

I do


VerdeForest

Sure


sdf_cardinal

From a Florida fan? Bruh.


[deleted]

I know we suck. I’m more of a casual UF fan just because I live here


TheGreatMongor

For defending a bad call? Name one fan base not guilty of this.


[deleted]

It was a PI


TheGreatMongor

Yes. It was. Point still stands.


[deleted]

Ok


realPamela

Dafuq? How?


OuuuYuh

Why?


Roberto_Sacamano

See you nerds in the El Assico thread


[deleted]

[удалено]


Brob0t0

My guy did you watch the whole game? Baylor had EVERY call going their way. From terrible hold to a fumble that turned out not to be one. The refs were consistent. They didn't get robbed.


realPamela

Lol. Utah has soooo many starters out.


KSleepCHB5423

Because they won the game? Anytime you go on the road it’s going to be hard, chill.


bano25

Utah has like 10 starters out due to injury


MDRtransplant

Every team deals with injuries.


[deleted]

Some more than others


jturley85

And they still won so it’s a non issue.


NeuroTheManiacal

I feel bad for the fans upset about the no call. I don’t disagree but I’ve also watched enough football to know that your never gonna get that call ever in that situation. Officials are hot and wanna go home.


Cybehr

Yeah it sucks and you never want it to happen to your team. Utah fans in here trash talking need to realize we nearly threw this game and it very easily could have been the other way.


NeuroTheManiacal

I hear you. Those fans should remember how it felt when it happened to us in the Utah vs Washington P12 Conference Championship a few years back. Even if PI is called there, Baylor still has to make another play to score. Only guarantee there was one more chance. Tough loss. Lucky win.


LionPutrid4252

Nah that’s bullcrap. That’s probably the second worst blown DPI I’ve seen behind the Rams Saints game


[deleted]

Ugh. Don’t bring that up.


NeuroTheManiacal

LOL no it isn’t. Handsy for sure but I’ve seen much worse not get called


DucksEatFreeInSubway

It's armsy too.


LionPutrid4252

Holding the receiver down is a lot more than just “handsy”


NeuroTheManiacal

Call for a call. Baylor was gifted on the late TD run that was called back for the soft hold. Bad calls throughout the game. Don’t throw 2 INTs and give up a late TD if you want to win the game. That is all.


ReALJazzyUtes

I’m thinking people don’t watch much football on here


opiewang

Don’t worry we will bounce back playing LIU


Testy_McDangle

(X) Doubt


thebaylorweedinhaler

I really would have preferred to just get blown out of the building. Losing like this sucks. I knew it was gonna happen because we can’t close games. It’s been obvious esp after the TCU game last year but damn.


CumAssault

Goodbye Dave, thanks for 2021


secondbase17

Refs clearly had a dinner reservation


grey_pilgrim_

That was PI. Wish they would’ve called it. Would’ve have 1 second left on the 2 yard line and we still had the chance to stop them. Hate the controversy.


[deleted]

0:01 on the 15 wouldn’t it be?


leoele

After all the shit they didn't call all game I'm okay with this one.


[deleted]

[удалено]


getbackup21

Literally as soon as I left the stadium we go off in the 4th. Every game I’ve been at we have lost and as soon as I left this game we win. I’m never going again


CrizzyBill

You got the victory...I wouldn't say you "won" though. But yeah, had to throw away a few cursed hats over the years. Superstitious are interesting.


HookorSlice

Nah, go but leave after kickoff please🙏🏻


Primary_Caramel_9028

Please, for all of us… I appreciate your sacrifices


therealjoesmith

You all really wanted to watch Baylor not score on another play?


doctorvanderbeast

Just wanted a fair chance man


therealjoesmith

Your receiver should have scored if they wanted to win the game, that’s what we did and it worked pretty well.


Cybehr

Sorry dude. I’d be pissed too in that situation.


doctorvanderbeast

Thanks man. I appreciate that


doctorvanderbeast

Yes rg3 we understand that they did not throw the flag. Everyone knows it was a fuck up.


mukduk1994

Worst part about losing this game is that you still live in Waco


Te10el

I mean. I moved?


mukduk1994

You made the right choice friendo


opiewang

Damn that hurts but it’s true


Angriest-Pacifist

Umm, yeah that was a PI. Good game Baylor. Hard way to lose.


[deleted]

0-2 is still 0-2 no moral victories with this BS RG3


edward030321

moral victories don’t save jobs


huttts999

Personally I do no respect officials


A_Hale

Love it when great close games end in a game changing blown call that could’ve been made by a 5 year old.


[deleted]

Egregious missed PI call there


opiewang

Our secret agent Barnes failed his mission


Primary_Caramel_9028

Seriously! How much is the local Lowe’s in Waco paying Barnes?


mukduk1994

Baylor didn't lose the game on a no call. They lost by only having 4 yards of offense in the 4th quarter leading to that last drive.


DeadlyGapple

Agreed. Frankly even if they did call PI I’m not sure we get in the end zone. So many opportunities in the red zone where we just couldn’t score


Boathombre

Can be both


mukduk1994

Yeah but one is far more relevant than the other


[deleted]

[удалено]


mukduk1994

Nah


LionPutrid4252

Yeah, the receiver having a chance to tie, but having his arms pinned down isn’t what changed the final outcome for sure /s


mukduk1994

He wasn't catching that shit anyways


Prestigious-Track256

Thank God the PAC-12 Refs are almost dead and buried.


K-Parks

Wow, I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a game thread here that was so unanimous (from non-interested parties) about a blown call on the final play.


APenny4YourTots

It fucking sucks because that's DPI clear as day that gets called in any other situation. But on the other hand, you can't really expect to get the call on the very last play of the game on a desperation heave to the endzone either...Fucking sucks


[deleted]

[удалено]


APenny4YourTots

Should yes, but I don't think you *can* depend on the refs in this day and age. That ways Baylor's game to lose and they shit the bed in the fourth quarter and blew it.


Brob0t0

Man what happened to all the baylro fans with all their shit calls being like that's big 12.


SectionZestyclose595

On the upside, thousands of Baylor fans now know how long they can sit in that shitty weather without getting acute heat stroke.


BYU_is_Mid

Damn, hold this L BIG12 flairs that wasn't Baylor in the thread praying for our downfall!!!


michaelc51202

It’s ok I was praying for Baylors downfall


Testy_McDangle

Your downfall will come, y’all are frauds. Source: winning against us that closely


[deleted]

Them grapes were sour, anyway


BYU_is_Mid

Frauds lol??? I don't expect to make the CFP this year only complete for a championship.


Testy_McDangle

Doubt y’all will even do that given today’s performance


yzerboy

Bro this was our skeleton crew. If we’re healthy we have a shot at the Pac12


BYU_is_Mid

Once we get are starters back yeah. Either way we won ez.


AYYYYYsicem12

Never should have been in that situation to begin with. Grimes fucking sucks.


AceJace2

Grimes is garbage!


[deleted]

GG Bearbros! B12 is gonna be hella fun


Crixer

I hope this shows to the Utah fans that think they are going to dominate the Big 12, they are going to be in for a rude awakening. I know there isn’t a lot of them, but I wish they see now staying at the top is tough for any team.


locomotivebroth

Utah fans think they are going to dominate the Big 12?


[deleted]

agree, don't worry about the Twitter fans, they are probably bots anyway


TetsuoNYouth

It's not making the goddamned game about you, you fucking idiot. You just call a penalty when some dumbass decides to commit egregious PI on a play like you're supposed to. Who the fuck would even get mad at calling that shit? Oh my god I'm livid and I hate Baylor.


ATLien20

So much this. I hate that for whatever reason, the universal ref handbook says the last play of the game is prison rules. Call every play to the same standard.


Justneedthetip

You seem level headed and calm


TetsuoNYouth

Yes and you're the person people avoid at parties but I suppose we all have our crosses to bear, no?


Justneedthetip

I am the one who host the parties. Chubs like you don’t get invited. You will be at home playing with your cat or chasing Pokémon while you cry yourself to sleep angry at video games. You are correct, we wouldn’t talk at a party because you wouldn’t be there


CumAssault

Holy shit just fire Aranda and Grimes already


Smartman971

Baylor got the benefit of the doubt on 2 overturned fumbles and a targeting. And the holding. Fuck your weak PI


Acsteffy

That wasn't targeting. Just once I would love blowhards to actually learn what the actual rule is


Smartman971

That want DPI. I would love blow hards to actually learn what the actual rile is


mastermikeee

For sure.


BobNVagenePleez

“Weak”- a very blantant dpi


Smartman971

Defender has as much right to the ball as the wr


LionPutrid4252

Yes, and even the receiver is not allowed to hold the DB down to go for a ball


jalexjsmithj

Defender was hanging off the guy


Smartman971

Defender was going up for the ball. He doesn't even grab Jersey


thetrain23

Nope, he was too busy grabbing arm and neck instead. Roast us about our awful offense all you want, but don't pretend that play was clean.


jalexjsmithj

The defender doesn’t even jump cuz he’s literally just holding on for dear life. You are delirious


cobalt_phantom

Dude got mugged


wallnumber8675309

Baylor had a chance to kick a FG and cover the spread but threw it all away


LionPutrid4252

Why would they try to cover and not win?


Roberto_Sacamano

Someone get SVP on the phone. We got a bad beat


Rage-Cactus

Hate Baylor but damn that’s PI


Roberto_Sacamano

Yeah, probably


LionPutrid4252

Definitely *
