VIDEO: Refs Royally Screw Florida With Awful Catch Ruling on Replay Which Set up Georgia TD
By Parker White
Sports fans can all agree that referees have a tough job, but this can't happen. During the second quarter of one of the biggest matchups of the season between 8th-ranked Georgia and 6th-ranked Florida, they made the determination that this was a catch. Take a look:

What?! Let's take a closer look to make sure the Georgia receiver kept the ball from touching the ground.

Nope. Everyone at home watching is correct. Even with less angles than the officials have, the Georgia receiver clearly used the turf to help him haul in the football.
That's a clear incomplete pass, but instead, they kept it as a catch and it set up a Bulldog touchdown, giving them a 10-0 lead over the Gators. Florida and Dan Mullen have every right to be furious.
