I dislike ranting about referees. It’s too easy to hate on them. It’s too easy to let your love of one team, or one outcome overshadow objectivity. It’s also usually not productive game to game, as in it doesn’t actually change anything moving forward.
It’s particularly annoying to rant after a loss about the refs. Even if true (and it often is), the complaint loses something if everyone simply assumes your sour grapes about the loss.
In this situation, MSU lost a passionate and tight game to the Purdue Boilermakers. Know that I’d be writing this regardless of the final outcome.
