Georgia media go ballistic over pass interference call in the end zone
There was one consensus opinion about a pass interference call against Georgia CB Eric Stokes late in the third quarter against Alabama. Reporters who cover Georgia seemed to agree that the call was poor.
It was a third down and 9 play from the Georgia 10-yard line, and it gave Alabama a first down, which the Crimson Tide converted into a touchdown with a Najee Harris 2-yard run for a 34-24 lead with 51 seconds left in the third quarter.
Here’s a sampling of the media reaction all coming to the same conclusion:
That was a horse crap pass interference call. Only way to say it. Horrible.

Poor call with both playing handsy.

That’s a tough, tough call.

That’s not pass interference
— Barrett Sallee (@BarrettSallee) October 18, 2020
I think the same official that administered Saban’s coronavirus tests must’ve also called that pass interference.

That is a HORRIBLE F***** CALL

Seemed obvious to me. How was Smitty supposed to make that catch when the DB tricked him into grabbing him with both hands? Good call. #bhamrefs
Hard to beat bama when every time we play them we play the refs too
Yeah, those 4 points matter when your being blown out in the second half.
MInus that 1 bad call you are correct g8rShtt. It was a well called game for the most part. To big of a stage for my newbies out there tonight but love their grit. Hopefully we’ll get to do it again in December
UGA is a QB short of being a great team…your not going to beat a team like Bama with Stetson Bennett…he’s a great story but not a great QB..I would rather have the great QB..
It was a fun story. Oh well. Long live Stetson…
Everyone has seen enough of you losers, just go disappear somewhere….
The G fan 43; are you short a QB or is your QB short? Sorry, couldn’t help myself.
Cry baby
Crybaby
Hehehehe
Go to bed
Stop whining you little baby cry dog. You guys are losers. It is in you dog dna, lol
What are you, 7..? Go to bed.
You got blown out. Refs couldn’t help you this time
Good news is you’ll likely get another shot at them in Atlanta.
Baby
Whine about the refs when UG is the dirtiest team in the SEC.
An Auburn fan, a team that is the cheap-shotting-est SOBs in the history of CFB… the team of NICK FAIRLY… the team of turning the hoses on opposing fans… has the gall to say UGA is the dirtiest team in the SEC?
Son, you’ve lost your dang mind.
Sort of like the Georgia interception that CLEARLY hit the ground,,maybe the pass interference on Ga wasn’t interference but they call it as it’s seen. Say Bama did only 3 and not a touchdown then Bama still wins by 11. Would an 11 point lose make you Ga fans better than a 14 point lose? Ga defense is good but Jones with Waddle, D. Smith, Harris and Metchie is dam near unstoppable combo, Bamas D-fence had a fire lite under they ass at Half to be able to hold Ga scoreless in 2nd half after them scoring on 4 straight possessions. It’s like this on any given day in the SEC any team can beat another and this was just another well fought game by 2 great teams. ROLL TIDE!!! Wonder how bad Bama will bury the Vols?? My prediction,, 55-17.
I can agree with that being a Bad call but doesnt help throwing 2 Int’s the refs didnt make him throw the ball.
PI it wasn’t but it just wouldn’t have mattered. Too many mistakes too much sark offense. Congrats Trunksnorters. Hopefully we’ll do it again in December. We might need a taller QB. Sorry Stetson, you’re still my boi.
You need a new everything…it is the same every year! lol
How is it NOT pass interference on Surtain all over Pickens, but that b.s. IS pass interference?
Bama Refs in the house.
Hehehe. Beat DOWN
Same ol Gawga
B.i.t.c.h
Where you at coarch
Game went off after yo bedtime. Lmao
Stop barking you baby cry dog. uga loser.
You can’t call them bama refs over one call. They gave Georgia an interception that clearly hit the ground to start the game.
Bad call? Yes.
Game changer? No.
I’m a little salty that the refs didn’t call the exact same thing a minute earlier, nor the wrap around on Burton’s waist on the INT.
Again, not game changers but it’d be nice to call it or rather not call it both ways.
Just like typical homer fans. Uga is getting its ass handed to them as usual and you cant put the blame where it belongs on Kirby Smart. He is supposed to be a good defensive coach but gets lit up everytime he plays a good offensive. As long as he is there except more of the same. I said they would lose by at least 3 touchdowns and they will. Ole miss put up a better fight. If Kirby starts Bennett in 2 weeks he should be fired on the spot.
Lost by 17. That’s not 3 TDs. Math is hard for you, isn’t it?
Crybaby
Hehehehe
Same ol
baby cry dog. loser
Go to bed son
Oh where oh where did my coarch go oh where oh where could he be
you’ll need to improve alot to beat them in Atlanta. Not sure you got the QB to do it
Kirby dumb dog and the british ugly dogs are losers! tradition continuous!!
Yeah, well remember the Georgia at Missouri game where the refs 1) took away a good field goal from Missouri. 2) refused to whistle forward progress till three Georgia players carried a receiver backwards 5 yard then stole the ball for a fumble six, 3) let your player throw the ball out of bounds before crossing the goal line and still counted the score, and 4) let a ref run in-between the Missouri tackler and your ball carrier all the way to the end zone. Now do you see why refs need more scrutiny in the SEC ?
What’s the margin right now? about the same as the Missouri vs. Alabama game. Maybe the media should start every season being cheerleaders for Georgia and Alabama, or Florida and LSU, either. Just shut-up and let the players decide and replay the games where crooked refs get assigned.
Cheddar? Gouda? Swiss? Just what cheese do Mizzu fans like with their whine? Y’all should change your name from Tigers to Sommeliers.
Good call
UGA fans blaming the refs? No way…
That call changed the momentum of the game. You’re blind or just trolling if you think different. It would have been 4th down and bama kicking a fg to go up by 6 instead of a td and going up by 10. It wasn’t only Ga media calling that a trash call. Bama won plain and simple but hopefully we get another shot in Atlanta with a different outcome.
Poor thing you… That great defense gave up almost 600 yards…
Nope
Obvious PI
In Atlanta you’ll still have Stetty4.
Just stop whining. What is it with puppies? go back to your cage!!lol
Bama only had to score one TD in the second half to win. The call was bad.
Not this time. Congrats on the win and just in case I haven’t told you this week, bite me turd.
Go sniff because that what you dogs are good at!!
Didn’t matter. Too little from our defense. Jones flung it around with EASE! Too many mistakes by Bennett. We should’ve run the ball more. We threw it too much on 1st/2nd down once we got inside AL’s redzone. (See the 1st drive after the int. and the drive after AL made 27-24.) Question that MUST be asked: Were we ever going to win a game like this with Bennett as the QB? If not, where else do we turn?
UG has not beat UA with any of your QBs since Kirby’s been at UG. You won’t beat Bama until Saban leaves deal with it.
Bunch of baby cry dogs, I told you before, Bama is going to roll over you poodles. kirby dumb dog and the uga are nothing but a disappointment. lol, once again a typical embarrassing disappointment. Roll tide!!!
Fans like you are why the Alabama football fan base is the most hated in collegiate sports.
Fans like you are why UGA fans get so much $hit…. Is it time to change your screen name again?
@Dirty South: I really think the reason Bama is one of the most hated organizations including the fan base is because excellence, dominance and CHAMPIONSHIPS!
RTR!
Actually *wins* like that are why Alabama fans are hated.
Go back to sniffing dog boy
Not sure they are a Bama fan but I get your point. Of course, with Queen, Racist Coach and Dogsofwar posting here it is understandable why Georgia fans are the most hated fan base on this site.
Uga fans are hated because they act like bama fans without the hardware to back up the constant barking.
georgia media is better off showing dog shows!! lol
Ok, take the 7 points away for that call in question….Would that make a difference in who won the game?
Clearly no it wouldn’t. Congrats to your trunksnorters, they did well. Hopefully we’ll do it all over again in December.
While I know you wish the outcomes were different, it seems like every time Bama and Georgia get together, it’s a classic. Other than tonight and the 2015 game, they’ve been close, hard fought battles with the outcome in doubt until the very end.
@LeghumperU: And that could possibly happen. But a word of caution to the Bulldog nation before concerning yourself too much with a rematch with Bama….Beware of UF.
Yes, that was PI. But, that was also total 2nd half domination. The dawgs are still a Kirby Smart coached team. Which means that they are a team full of 5 star players with a 3 star coach. Decent but not good enough to get the job done.
Kirby’s teams still play excellent 2010 football.
Well said.
May those refs burn in Hell. How much did Saban pay them?
Shut up baby cry dog! lol
I’ll be honest, I didn’t see this being such a high scoring affair. UGA was hanging in there the first half. But that second half was a straight kicking. When was the last time a team scored that many points on a UGA defense?
They are over rated when playing a real team.
Eh, didn’t like the call. But it wasn’t a big deal. UA was just flat out the better team. Nice win Tide.
I agree it was wrong. I don’t think it was the worst call ever thought. I watched the Auburn vs Arkansas game last week. I also saw Pickens get in a DB’s face and then grab his face mask for no call. By rule that’s 15 yards and a warning.
Pickens has taken over for the cancer Brenton was, so much talent wasted by so much ego that he is becoming uncoachable. Glad we’re reloading WRs the past recruiting cycle and potentially the one coming in. I see another top level talent in my humpers future transfer portal. Enough George. Enough.
Oh yes, Brenton was a terrible cancer. You know he’s been gone for a year-and-a-half, right?
I think you should be more worried about your high school quarterback.
I’m not gonna worry about any of it Nash, but I appreciate your guidance
Have to get your head around. You have to find ball. Ball was thrown behind DB and DB looked lost unfortunately and he impeded Smith to ball. Personally, I feel it could have gone either way. By rule, it’s a PI.
I just think back to last year’s LSU game when a flag was thrown every time a Gump DB even thought about Chase or Jefferson and am fine with this.
Definitely wasn’t pass interference. But ultimately didn’t change the outcome.
Also, lot of lovers in this comment section.
Ha! Losers. Stupid auto-correct.
Just like t*tty baby hedge puppies!Even if the call was not made,the game was already over! Your quarterback proved that!! LoL!! So long porch puppies!!
That opening sentence is easily one of the more immature insults I’ve seen on this site. Which says a lot.
It was a very debatable call. DB got his head around and receiver didn’t alter his route to stay in bounds and try to run into the DB, so it could have been a no-call.
Each team had six penalties. Alabama lost two big plays/gains on holding and on a block in the back.
