You don't usually see fans of a team that won a game dispute calls, but they are over on the Rutger's board right now. They are saying Weller Kick ride right and Brazill's catch hit the turf. What do you guys think about the calls?

After what happened at the Toledo-'Cuse game yesterday, they have a right to question Big Least officiating, I guess.  But the replays on ESPN's website show that they're just poor winners.  The end zone shot shows that Lavon definitely had his right arm under the ball when he hit the ground.  No way it's incomplete.  The call on Weller's FG at the end of the first half isn't as clear because the ball sails way above the upright, but the trajectory that the ball took makes the ref's call reasonable.

There certainly isn't the clear evidence like at the Toledo game.

What are they saying about the pass interference call on Shaw in the second half?

No kidding, that call was terrible.  Easy the worst call of the game on either side.

I don't care what they are saying on the Rutgers board, the Brazill TD was a catch. I watched the replay a dozen times. The ball is allowed to touch the ground just as long as it is still being controlled by the receiver. He didn't use the ground to help him secure the ball, it was a good catch.

Agreed. Brazil's catch was a no-doubter. Weller's kick was close, but I thought it was good too. No one has a better view than the refs and if the call was on for the Big East refs to screw us, they certainly would have done so.

Toledo agrees.
