There's been plenty of talk over the last couple of days about the questionable officiating in the Georgia Bulldogs' 31-17 win against the Tennessee Vols.
To be clear, that's not the main reason why the Vols lost to the Bulldogs. Ultimately, Georgia won the battle in the trenches on both sides of the ball, which was the difference in the game.
But I'm sure Tennessee's coaches, players, and fans would have liked to see how the game might have played out if a couple of calls had gone the Vols' way.
One call that didn't go Tennessee's way was an obvious defensive pass interference call that should've been called on Malaki Starks.
It's pretty obvious from that replay that Starks hit the receiver well before the ball arrived. That should've been an easy defensive pass interference call for the official.
On Monday, Georgia's official Twitter/X.com account posted a video that highlighted that play.
Everyone on the planet knows that was pass interference (even Georgia fans deep down know it). But that didn't stop the UGA account from posting that video.
It's almost like the Georgia account is bragging that they got away with one on that play.
Every team is the benefit of a bad call from time to time. But slyly bragging about it on social media is quite a choice by the Bulldogs.
