Sorry but I'm still trying to come to terms with the two TDs they scored.

On the first it looked like we clearly we stopped them on 4th down and then they spotted the ball on the 34 when the replay clearly showed the player never even made the 36 yard line. Even after the clear evidence of the replay they still spotted it at the 34.

On the second TD we stopped them again. The ball was clearly uncatchable and we get hit with a defensive holding call

Can anyone talk me off the ledge here. I am getting fed up with us seemingly getting hit with these types of calls. There seems to be a long history of bad calls going against us that has cost us several games. I won't even start to list them but I could.

Are we suspect to get these calls since we are not B1G elite or are we really committing these penalties and I'm just being a homer?

What gives?? In my mind that game should have been 35-0, if our O-line had their act together
