Is this game in Texas or Oklahoma? I thought I read someon say Dallas, and yet they have OU as the home team.

 

this game is almost always in Dallas, which is more or less geographically 1/2 way between Norman and Austin

197 miles from Austin, 190 from Norman according to the pregame.

Yeah, they showed a graphic during pre-game that said UT was 190 miles from Dallas and Norman was 197 miles from Dallas

Ok, that's definately an interesting idea to have a "netural site" for both teams in a rivalry game. I guess that idea works well in the Big 12 because of the north/south conference, instead of the East/WWest configuration.

 

Good to know, and thx for the clearification, Der and everybody else who answer the question.

this is the worst officiated game i've ever seen. both the running into the kickers were bull. both the roughing the passers again colt were bull. the interception in the endzone that they called an incomplete pass.

 

it's favored texas, but still. it's horrible

what a poor officiated game. my lord.

 

You want to see a poorly officiated game, go re-watch the Alabama/Kentucky game. The fact that Rich Brooks were in the ear of the refs all game and got phantoms holdings and OPI calls (on Julio Jones) all game long was bad enough. Then those "refs" couldn't spot a ball to save their lives. To me the Alabama/KU game was the worst I've seen.

 

Which brings me to this opinion:

 

I honestly believe that NCAA needs to considered moving refs from conference to conference. SEC officials can't work SEC games, etc, etc. Every yr each conference would have a difference conference refs. Like 09 the Big 12 would have SEC refs, then 2010 Big East, etc, etc. Because some of these games ou swear these refs have money on the game.

in the sec, i'd be surprised if they don't have money on some of the games.

 

You're telling me. That's why I support a floating system to which one conference's refs would not get comfortable in any one conference. Refs would have no visible concentions to any school or said conference, and maybe we see these refs start calling good games.

yeah but if the school's boosters are paying off the refs, rotating refs isn't going to help anything. i think you just need to accept that everyone is going to cheat in the sec and whoever does the best job of it will probably win.

UM misses a 26-yard chip shot and Toledo will win. Michigan's 1st loss to a MAC team.
