I watched the game as a Bama fan and saw calls called poorly. Both teams have reason to be a little miffed at the officiating. Especially in the era of video replay.

I like the video replay, especially on crucial plays, but the game lasted over 4 hours as it was. Reviewing every questionable call would make it impossibly long. Refs make bad calls and while we gripe about them generally the bad calls even out.

Plus too many referee timeouts can change the game dynamics especially if one team has momentum.

Vol fan here and I was going to say the same thing.
