Alabama earned a hard-fought 30-24 victory over Ole Miss on Saturday, but it didn’t come without controversy.

Both the Crimson Tide and the Rebels understood what was on the line in this one. And both squads displayed a sense of urgency you pretty much only get in the SEC nowadays.

But the officials also played a role in the final result.

One sequence involving Alabama linebacker Dallas Turner, in particular, really stood out.

No call on this. Imagine someone doing this to Tom Brady. The NFL would call off all games for 3 months to pursue criminal charges. pic.twitter.com/DY2kIQ4XZa

Despite the sophomore clearly shoving Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart’s head into the turf after a sack, nothing was called.

And this wasn’t an isolated incident. Nick Saban’s group played particularly ‘aggressively’ throughout, as perfectly illustrated by this attempted beheading:

Fans at home couldn’t help but point out that Turner’s uncalled foul wasn’t even the worst thing Ole Miss was forced to deal with:

And that wasn’t even the worst one..

It’s a well known fact Alabama has never played by the same rules as everyone else. Nothing to argue about just fact.

There were a LOT more. No sour grapes…Rebels had a chance to win in the 4th and didn’t do it. But Bama got away with tons of no-call penalties. Egregious ones

At the end of the day, Ole Miss had a chance to win despite the uncalled penalties. They didn’t. That’s on Lane Kiffin and Co. But the fact remains – the uncalled penalties did occur. And they did alter the game to a significant degree.

It is concerning that this is becoming a trend in college football. On a seemingly weekly basis, teams are getting screwed. It happened last weekend. And the weekend before that. And the weekend before that.

These outcomes, in turn, have a material impact on the College Football Playoff picture.

No woman would say ‘no’ after this smooth of a move. https://t.co/GVaghm1SUb

At some point hopefully officials step in and do something. Because at the moment irreparable damage is being done to the integrity of the game.

Will a fix ultimately be offered by the powers that be?

Time will tell.
