remember that florida-arkansas game?

the one where arkansas was going to beat florida until the refs made a series of questionable calls late in the 4th quarter, essentially enabling florida to come back and win?

well, those refs got suspended. for CHEATING!

"The Southeastern Conference has suspended officials from last weekend's Arkansas-Florida game after the crew was involved in its second controversial call of the year.
Referee Marc Curles' crew called a personal foul on Arkansas defensive lineman Malcolm Sheppard in the fourth quarter as the Gators were rallying for a 23-20 victory. The league said there was no video evidence to support the call.
The same group of officials called the LSU-Georgia game earlier this month, which included a late unsportsmanlike conduct penalty the league said shouldn't have been called." (via)

how does the BCS consider cheating and faux swine flu excuses when they're calculating the rankings?
