Ref Knocked Garcia Down on Purpose

i am not a fan of the coach at south carolina, however, i think the idiot ref that tackled garcia in the lsu game should be fired.

i looked at a video rerun at field level and there was absolutely no people blocking the video. the ref stalked and knocked garcia down on purpose.

i hope you can ask the sec to fire the jerk. i did not watch the game so i don't know if that incident could have made a difference in the outcome of the game but it was blatant.

Ref Should be Reprimanded
by: LL

I hope something substantial is being done about the ref taking Stephen Garcia down during the South Carolina game.

This was
unbelievable! He should be reprimanded, fined and released!

SEC Response

OK, we've looked into it. Here's the video on youtube if you want to see it:

Here's a hot discussion about it on SEC Talk: Ref Tackles Garcia

But, the SEC reviewed it and declared the "tackle" to be inadvertent. Here's more:

SEC Response.

We say odds are high the ref did not make the hit intentionally. But, we'll keep an eye on him. Wish I could have seen him play in college.
