This thread is for all of your commentary on the game results and all of your complaints on the referees. I went to two ACC institutions and worked closely with a third for a while. Every ACC fan I know of who saw this game was tremendously embarrassed by the incompetence and clueless performance of these ACC referees. But no one was surprised. We have to live with it all the time.

Vessie, I don't know if they are any worse than any other conference. And the NFL has had a very bad year with officiating. And NHL fans would tell you it is the same in hockey. I think other than some of the really egregious ones called/missed, we are going to continue to see it with all the different camera angles and replays. Humans make mistakes and nothing we say or do is going to change that.

at least they were incompetent on both sides of the ball (mostly, anyway...)

Those refs were "pathetically" bad last night, but these days, is that not the norm?

The Refs let the guys play, which Im ok with because it was both ways. I have a problem with pathetic excuse for a holding call on the Wash RT when Penix finally hit a big throw down field

It seems that the RT (73) had the whistle blown about three times late in the game. It was like the refs got together and said - watch number 73.

Holding calls and pass interference calls are judgement calls and they vary all over the place. Different refs, different calls. Position of the ref and what angle he sees.
As a fan, we get to see the call from different angles and in slow motion. A lot different from the ref - who has one angle and actual speed. Shitzzzz, I sure wouldn't want to be a ref. I ref'ed a few games in basketball and baseball and it wasn't easy.
Tough job being a ref.
