Mark Stoops rips officials after series of calls against Kentucky in Florida game

Mark Stoops let the officiating crew of the Kentucky-Florida game have it on Saturday night.
In the third quarter, UK was angry with how the refs called two pass plays. On a deep Kentucky pass, the refs held their whistles despite evident contact with the Florida defender. On the following series, a Kentucky defensive back was flagged for pass interference on a ticky-tack call.
With those two decisions just a few plays apart, Stoops tore into the officiating crew.

Despite the calls, things have worked out for the Wildcats. Florida punted on the drive despite the DPI call. On UF’s next possession, a field goal was blocked and returned for a TD, giving Kentucky a 13-10 lead.
