It was a dirty shot, and denying it makes you look like a complete fool. Second, it doesn't matter one fucking bit whether it affected the outcome, it's a play that should have been penalized. You sound exactly like Auburn fans that defended Nick Fairley a couple of years back. Third, I didn't say that Georgia had no dirty plays. I said we didn't have "lots" of them, and we sure as hell didn't get away with lots of them.
By the way, there were calls that affected the outcome of the game. Best example was a pass interference call on a 3rd down stop in the red zone where all of America except one ref could tell that the ball was uncatchable. That gave Alabama a TD instead of a field goal. Another example was the roughing the passer call on a 3rd down stop in the red zone that gave Alabama a TD instead of a field goal. An even playing field wouldn't have necessarily given us a win, but it sure would have been better than what we got.
