2nd and 21....final drive

[EMik21]

I have not seen the reply yet, but from our seats (Section 126 - Row 12), it looked like DJK was interfered with by the Wisconsin DB. Was that ball catchable for those of you who saw it on TV, or for those of you in the North Endzone?
It would have been 1st Down, we would have been just past midfield, clock stopped and 2 TO's left.
I think that was a big "No Call", as the Pass Interference Call was missed a few other times throughout the game as well.
Finally, I am not blaming the refs, but when you have a big time receiver at home against some below average DB (in my opinion as he was targeted all day), you have to make that call if it is P.I., no matter the down, distance and time left.

I was in 101-Row 29 and it looked like it was fairly catchable. And yes, the DB made contact with DJK. It should've been called.

My dad was watching on TV, and said there was a little contact, but a still a good no-call. After watching the replay online, I agree. You've gotta let them play a little bit.

I normally say let them play, but he physically pushed the receiver out of bounds 3 times that I saw.

 

[bws258]

seriously, there we at least 3 PIs that should have been called on Wisc DBs

On the radio, Podolak was screaming for a PI call.

 

[HawkForce]

imo...that is a textbook pi call....hand on back with receiver running should be called everytime.

Not that we should be using it as an excuse for this loss, I will say that there were at least three separate occasions where DJK was interfered with and we got no calls on any of them.

& i have seen Robinsons facemask being pulled all season long. I also think the ref's ability to spot the ball has been awful this year too. These must be B12 officials!

Again this is something that Ferentz should have been eating the ref for lunch but he just kept going on as if nothing happened. I thought that he should of fought a little harder to get the refs to pay attention to all those db's that were literally molesting our WR's at times.

Remember in the college game contact is allowed past 5 yards, and the ball was pretty far out of bounds. Good no call. The clip on Clayborn was terrible and occured right were two officials should have been looking. It was not even close to a legal block and could have been career threatening. "That would have started a fight if it had happened to me!" was Matt Millen's take.

The block on Clayborn should of been a an illegal chop block, clayborn was engaged with another blocker and the guy went low, that is 15yds.

The non PI calls were the right calls, DJK ran out of bounds on the pass play. If Stanzi would of thrown it a little more inside, then we might of gotten the call, but rick wanted to make sure it didn't get picked!

I personally thought Wisky's OLINE was very fundamental in blocking and our lack of LB is what cost us down the stretch. Our defensive coaches need to stress to our LB's that they need to step up this week!
