“Led by Tommy Hunt, our Supervisor of Football Officials, and after discussions with the Southeastern Conference office, we have completed a review of the officiating in the Florida State at Florida football game.

The game had an inordinate number of difficult ball possession calls for the game officials to make. Those calls have to be made immediately with a single view at full speed action. Even with the aid of slow motion and various camera angles, several calls are still inconclusive as to whether they were absolutely the correct ones or not.

As in most games, there were a few missed calls that affected both teams. A perfectly officiated, played or coached game has yet to occur, but that is always the goal of each official, player and coach.

Overall, although there were some arguable calls, the game was efficiently managed in a very difficult environment by a quality and experienced crew.”

The Conference Office will have no further comment regarding this situation.
