pointing out discrepancies when they are valid.

For example vs UVA, they were calling valid holding calls against ND...they were consistently ""missing"" blatant out in plain sight holding by UVA where Mills and Young were blowing by their OL and getting grabbed literally from behind.

This has an impact on the game, denying this is borderline insanity.

You could pit the best team you want vs the worst team...if I'm out there as the ref and I allow the shit team to hold blatantly but I call it tight against the good team, I can make them look really bad and maybe even lose.
