There’s an unspoken rule in social media – never be the main character. Well, SEC officiating was once again the main character for all the wrong reasons once again on Saturday in Auburn, Alabama.
The first half was about as one sided as it could get for roughly 28 minutes of game time. Then chaos ensued in the form of official reviews and questionable calls. The final two minutes of the first half took 36 minutes in real time.
Ultimately, Georgia was able to claw their way back into the game and win 20-10. Afterwards, social media reacted. Here were some of our favorite tweets.

I rewatched the Kirby timeout sequence. Kirby calls timeout.
Then tells the ref that Auburn was clapping. “They can’t clap! They can’t clap!”
Points to Auburn: “They’re clapping!”
Ref weirdly overturns the timeout call. Broadcast assumes Kirby said he didn’t call timeout. https://t.co/aUeA1eXCr5 pic.twitter.com/0MPK5JaL33

For anyone that missed it..
Auburn just went from an obvious touchdown and going up 17-0 on Georgia at half..
To..
TD is called a fumble and then 85 yds worth of penalties in 5 plays to allow Georgia a chip shot field goal.
These refs man.. pic.twitter.com/PA4XeqRC3B

It’s pretty clear that the officials in Auburn don’t have a great grasp on control of this game.

“I have no clue how [the ball] didn’t break the plane, no clue.”
