It's enough to raise suspicion. Other angles of that hit would be helpful.
>If I were a UW official I'd really put my whiny, pussy attitude to good use and bitch and threaten the pac 12 up until kickoff.
Or, in other words, copy Oregon and Stanford.
Now let’s get to the coaches. I understand the pressure they’re under. It has to be incredible. But they are wildly inconsistent in their complaints. And some voices -- like Stanford and Oregon -- are much louder than others. Coaches are allowed to send in reports submitting plays to be reviewed by the coordinator. Often, they’re meaningless plays that are not fouls. They might technically be fouls, but that’s being generous. They’re calls nobody would want called except for the coach that submitted them.
Unbelievable that other Pac-12 coaches were such idiots/pussies that they allowed Chip Kelly and Harbaugh/Fat Tiger to gain the upper hand with the league office.
Makes sense, though. NEVER seen the Huskies get screwed worse than the 31-28 loss at Palo Alto in 2013. Officiating that night was a fucking atrocity.
