In his Monday press conference, coach Bielema said that he has been told the official who called the holding call on the Morgan touchdown, won’t be seen again by the Hogs.

Every football fanbase hates the officials when they get beat. Arkansas fans are no different but the Alabama game left fans who normally don’t blame refs, yelling at the T.V. for some the calls.

One call, in particular, left more than the fans angry. A touchdown pass by Allen to Morgan was called back because of a hold and coach Bielema lost his mind. Can you blame him, though?

It seemed like this game was full of missed calls. One missed pass interference call had me screaming words that I can not say here without being let go. Right in front of the official, a Bama defender had his arm locked around the Razorback receiver and 5 inches of jersey pulled out but nope totally legit.

I think this tweet by TJ LSU DAD sums it up pretty well. The officiating for that game was absolutely atrocious. I am not even talking about just in favor of Bama, though. In the beginning, the Hogs DID get away with some holds.

The good news is that going forward is someone, I assume from the SEC, has assured Bielema that the Razorbacks wouldn’t have that official on the field again. That tells me that they acknowledge that there were issues on Saturday in Fayetteville. I guess it’s a nice consolation prize for Arkansas. The best players for Bama on the field that night were the officials. Woo Pig!
