Kurt, If the official determined to make the call on the OSU player, then the Husky player deserved a flag, also. The Husky's reaction was far greater. The penalties should have been off-setting. VR, J Horvath
Was at the game, didn’t see what happened…just watched the replay, two players tangled up, pushing and pulling each other after the whistle, but the Husky threw the Beaver down, with the back of the Beaver’s head smashing into the turf. Commentators agreed that at minimum, should have been offset.
One other thing I noticed, the Husky receiver is VERY skilled at pushing off in order to achieve separation.
However, OSU had plenty of opportunity to win this game. Hats off to the Huskies.
Too bad there was not a pic of the Beaver cornerback viciously lashing out with his face to the fist of the UW player. No doubt a personal foul in the realm of PAC 12 officiating.
Jim T, Was that a tongue-in-cheek descriptor of a personal foul? I took it that way because only a player who has lost control of his emotions smashes his fist into an opponents facemask! That's a great way to break some knuckles and/or to dislocate one's thumb. And, it can draw a very deserving personal foul penalty which the coaches and the players will critique (and assign many stairs and up-downs for that lack of self-discipline). VR, J Horvath
Possibly the ONLY good thing about the PAC12 going away is that there won’t be PAC12 refs any longer...
GO BEAVS
GO DAWGS
overall I thought the officials called a good game.. They didn't decide it. Congrats on your victory you earned it, truly.
Would agree for the most part. The 15-yard personal foul on OSU was a horrible call, but aside from that it seemed to be pretty well officiated.

I thought that flag should be offset, too, or simply picked up. Was on a kickoff or punt return, I forget. But to my eye both players were guilty

Pointing out what actually happened as the Washington
Player clearly struck the Beaver cornerback in the face mask/ helmet with his hand/ fist. How that was a personal
foul on the Beaver was an egregious call.
In stadium experience, there were virtually NO replays on the jumbo screen of most any play. Was a bit disappointed in that
