    The crooked ACC had their refs step in and help FSU in three games last year, one of which was Miami. Maybe that means that Miami gets up to four. They’ve used two and have two left.

    Nah, this non call just flipped it the way that puts more money in their pockets

    ACC bylaws 'protect the top two teams at all costs ' that's our only chance for relevance as a football conference.

    The NIL is called sports betting and the collective is called The Mob

    This is what has me thinking. The amount of money swirling around now in sports betting is around 150 billion for all sports, with 35 billion on the NFL and 2.7+ billion being bet on March madness. The amount of betting money swirling around college sports is nasty.

    This topic came up on Finebaum today. He made a comment about the refs wearing Miami jerseys. It's very blatant and obvious to all.

    Def right. Cal def was cheated being up 35-10 midway through the 3rd quarter. Def not their fault they got outscored 29-3 the rest of the game. Def the refs fault.

    They don’t want to blame Cal for choking and they don’t want to give Miami credit for putting together a comeback, so they go with the tried and true “it was the refs” explanation. Lol typical

    Finebaum ignored refs wearing Bama jerseys for Nick Sabans entire tenure.
