FSU football: 5 major takeaways from ‘Noles win over LSU
By Kelvin Hunt
Refs Were Terrible
I try to avoid blaming the referees in games, but what we witnessed it the first half of that game was ridiculous. FSU got called for six penalties in the first half against zero for LSU. How is that possible? They were holding the FSU defensive line on every play. Check this video below that went uncalled:
LSU didn’t have their first penalty called until after a minute had expired in the third quarter. They only got called for two penalties all night. The refs missed a clear delay of game penalty during one of FSU’s defensive goal line stands.
FSU only got called for one penalty in the second half, so I guess it evened out, but referees picked up flags against FSU and then called a personal foul penalty on FSU? I’m glad we won the game, but they certainly aided a few LSU drives in the first half.
