Fix job you have ever seen in college football? For me without a doubt it's the Oregon Oklahoma game. To this day I still can't believe how Blatant that was. The onside kick at the end of the game by Oregon was touched by Oregon before it went 10 yards which is a penalty OU ball and game over.
Of course they missed the call but no worries because OU got the ball from the onside kick game over. But wait a minute the refs give the ball to Oregon even though OU got it. They go down get the winning FG game over.
To this day still can't believe that game even though I watched it live.

Sorry I also forgot the PI penalty that put Oregon in FG range that the ball was obviously tipped so no PI. Was reviewed also but still not overturned either.

For all the people saying games aren't fixed. Sorry but there is no explanation for that OU Oregon game period. Thats as blatant and obvious as it gets. Especially after reply and not over turning the calls when they were all obvious.

So none of the people that say no way a meaningless sporting event could be fixed is going to explain this one. Especially when the Pac 10 Commiss admits it.
Oklahoma lost the game 34-33 after Oregon scored two touchdowns near the end of the game.
An onside kick by Oregon after its first late touchdown was touched by a Ducks player before it traveled the required 10 yards, and the Pac-10 ruled that the ball should have been awarded to Oklahoma. The league also said that video revealed that an Oklahoma player actually recovered the ball.
Officials on the field gave the ball to Oregon, and replay officials did not overturn that decision.
During a subsequent play, pass interference was called on Oklahoma, setting up the winning score. The Sooners argued that the ball had been tipped at the line of scrimmage, thereby nullifying the pass interference call.
Replay officials did not see indisputable evidence to overturn the penalty.
"The fact that the errors on the onside kick altered the outcome of the game is most unfortunate and unsettling," Hansen said in a statement. "We had a solid veteran crew assigned, and the instant replay official had a fine career as a referee in the Pac-10. We believe in the ability and integrity of each individual involved. It should be noted that not all of the seven officials were directly involved in the play in question, but the entire crew bears responsibility for every play. Game officials and replay officials have positions of great responsibility and must be accountable for their actions.
"Errors clearly were made and not corrected, and for that we apologize to the University of Oklahoma, coach Bob Stoops and his players. They played an outstanding college football game, as did Oregon, and it is regrettable that the outcome of the contest was affected by the officiating."

Brother, you are 100 percent correct.. To be honest with you the PAC 10 or 12 or whatever the F it is called these days is the most sketchy conference by far... Football is very tough to fix unless you have the zebras involved, but still possible..
If you look at CBB in the PAC 10 with the amount of dogs that covered in the last 3 minutes of games you would sh*t your pants. PM me and I will give you the numbers.. It is an absolute joke.

All I am saying is College FB is NOTHING compared to CBB.. That is where you will see fix jobs every night with sh*t schools and the elite schools.. It is the easiest game to fix by far.. think about it..
Football needs a bunch of people to act in unison.. Basketball... One or two at the most.. Most important part.. No coaches or refs..

I cant believe THIS game is garnering all this talk. It was 42-7 at the half. Nothing more could be done in that game by UA to get the game Over. It just goes to show how bad UCLA really is. Now with that said....Vegas will make Cal a road fav and the entire world remembering Prince's inability to score a TD inside the 20 15 odd times will pound Cal.
UCLA will find away to win and beat degens 2 weeks in a row.

for me it was in the nfl when the ref threw the holding flag on a random player when the bears ran back that phenomenal trick play on the punt with Hester and Knox a few weeks back. You just do not make that call there. Ref apologized the next day for that bad call (but that did not change the outcome of wagers). Cost me a 6 team 7500 parlay....I'll never forget it. I'll never forget that ref.

Toledo/Cuse xtra point missed called good, reviewed and upheld....
The fact that a dozen or so officials on the field and the entire Mizzou coaching staff and team all failed to recognize they had won the game on downs is still mind-boggling to me. That's the game I remember most as well. It was truly unbelievable.

That SC game was not a fix. It was the right call to take a safety to end the game. Why chance a run back or block punt (UGA vs Vandy) and lose the game. Ole ball coach didn't care about the spread he just wanted the win.

I can't recall what year it was, between 2007 and 2009. It was a Houston Cougar game where the Over/Under was absurb, like 75 or above and I recall noticing that the timekeeper allowing the clock to trickle off an extra 4-5 seconds every play, regardless if the play was over, "running play and player got the 1st down and was down" or player ran out of bounds at 12:31 and the clock finally stopped at like 12:26.
Somehow, the over still hit with the clock shenanigans, but it was blatant and I recall noticing it the entire game.
Does anyone remember this by chance? Maybe it was against Tulsa or UTEP?
