Hey bud I made this same statement last night. Watch Jacoby Jones KO Ret. TD and the SF player being held by 2 Ravens. Flacco had forever to throw the ball on many plays. I won't take that win away from Balts defense but no offensive holding calls aided them in their playoff run

Hard to tell in the Fla./Ark. example, beyond the money, records, and titles these coaches have egos as well... Arkansas, having the top team in the nation against the ropes, was probably not going to quit hammering until the bell rang. Back to my ego point, if Arkansas' head coach had to choose between winning by 50 and potentially losing the game (not being conservative, with a big lead) or winning by 8-10 and getting a guaranteed win (being conservative with a big lead, clock management), I'm sure his ego was screaming, "beat these biotches by 50."
And to those that think games don't get rigged in some way, well thats already been proven on multiple levels...

No problem. I had NW/Neb 2H under a couple weeks back and was very similar to the Flo/Ark gm, I know for sure teams aren't shaving or fixing games. Just to hard to keep people quite. players now are fully aware of the lines and who knows what they do for buddies. Refs on the other hand can set the tempo of a game from the get go. Last week I had Ari/Wash 1H over and it was a brawl. Players taking smacks and bodychecks and no calls. Funny thing is when they did call fouls they were off-fouls. Change of poss. and a new shot clock.
Same in baseball the Ump can shrink or enlarge the strikezone.
Yes games are rigged but not like people on here think they are.
