    I have a lot of relatives in NWA. George's used to be a gay bar from what I was told. Not that it matters to me but it might shock some of our sheltered fans.
    Looks like a neat place based on the website and some of the reviews I read. I spend a lot of time up there but have never been there. I'll have to check it out next time I'm in town.

    Wowl Just in these few video clips, I see what should have been at least TWO penalties against Arkansas for hitting LA Tech ball carriers out of bounds. At the 1:12 mark (on Rattay) and at the 5:26 mark.

    I also didn't realize we missed a chip shot 28-yard FG.

    One of the most infamous games in Tech history. There were dozens of other calls and no calls that went against us from an SEC officiating crew. Danny Ford even apologized to Crowton after the game for what happened. The second half in particular was a joke. Even the missed field goal was questionable. Our kicker and holder went directly to the Referee after the "miss" to argue the call. The referee then had a discussion with the official under the goal post who called it wide.

    Something similar happened in 1996 when Tech went up 21-7 against Arkansas in the first half. Arkansas' pass rushers began to hit Jason Martin late time after time. Our sideline was going crazy. We didn't get a single call all night, and Martin was knocked out of the game. Also with an SEC officiating crew.

    After those two games coupled with what happened to Tech at South Carolina in both 1991 and 1992 where SEC officials were used, Oakes insisted that we have a split crew for Tech's game at Alabama later that season. Tech was using CUSA officials. Bobby Aillet, who was the supervisor of officials for the SEC at the time, did not object. The problems we had with the SEC crews went back to a long-standing grudge the SEC officials had with Tech over Jerry Stovall's decision to drop the SEC as our game officials before the 1991 season because of expenses. It cost the SEC officials assigned to our games paychecks for those Saturdays that season. Everybody was aware of what was going on. The SEC crews were that crooked in that era. They made Tech pay for that for years, even after Stovall was gone.

    While Aillet didn't object, Alabama said no to the request and insisted a full SEC crew be used. Oakes then did something I don't know if Dooley or Bruce or Tommy would ever do. He told Alabama that if we didn't get a split crew we would not show up in Tuscaloosa that weekend. We got the split crew. The officials swallowed their whistles. And Tech took the win.

    The best part of all of it was on a crucial third down run late in the game. Tech TE Josh Bradley obviously held on the play, but there was no way it was going to get called. Mal Moore, prior to his tenure as Alabama AD, was doing color commentary for Alabama's television broadcasts. When the obvious hold wasn't called, he started screaming. "We've got to have that call".

    For the folks coming up to Fayetteville,

    If you have time driving up or leaving, I suggest taking the Pig Trail Scenic Byway (Ark Hwy 23). You go through some crazy curvy roads.

    At the bottom of his story, Isabella posted the updated contract for the Arkansas game and several others. In the contract for the Arkansas game, page 2, paragraph 15. "Officials shall be appointed from the Southeastern Conference"

    TAC Basement: We had to accept SEC officials or they would have cancelled the game. (this is why we moved the game according to the basement)

    During the Joe Raymond era, we caught hell from SEC officiating crews. Questionable calls and no calls factored heavily in games at Mississippi St. in 87 and 88 and at South Carolina in 91 and 92.
