The Big Ten refs apparently would have us all believe that the Buckeyes are so good... they never hold. Like, ever.
They have not had a holding called against them in OVER TWO YEARS in Big Ten play. That's right... TWO YEARS. What a crock of chit.
Wow!
And nobody in the ivory tower acknowledges that, double wow!
If true, Triple WOW, except that the whole B10 has only been called for holding by the OL during a pass play 4x in the last 2 years (I made that up, sarcasm). Why did we steal the DC, we should have stolen the OL coach!
We have been called for holding more on run plays than OSU has been called period.
But DB's can hold as we well know. So it is not about 'letting them play' it is about protecting QB's. What else can it be? Could be about fixing games but I hate to go there. It is just star power, Jordan never got into foul trouble. There are always different rules for the big boys and the conference darlings. Heck, I thought we were lucky we weren't called for roughing the IU QB in the first series. I am sure IU jumped on more than one occasion but they must now have a 1 Mississippi rule for top 5 teams.
In that same period, how many games with Non B10 refs and how many times did they get called? That would be pretty damming if more than 4?
You know, they can not call holding on just about any play, lol
Oh, this is interesting. I'll have to dig deeper. OSU 40-357 yds. In penalties but somehow the Refs turn their heads everytime OSU holds.. makes perfect sense.

Perhaps one of the many reasons 🤔 thee OSU are elite, #1..
