Post Mountain West crew to work the I-Bowl

Wednesday December 16, 2009

Rivals has information this morning about which conferences will be assigned to referee the 2009 bowl games. Officials from the Mountain West conference will work Georgia’s Independence Bowl matchup with Texas A&M. The piece also looks at how conferences go about assigning their various crews to work the bowls – it’s as much a reward and merit-based system for the officials as it is for the teams.

After grading each official’s work during the regular season, each conference sends its top officials at each position to NCAA national coordinator David Parry, who assembles bowl crews by conference. Parry then assigns each bowl game a crew of neutral conference officials.

We offer our condolences to the teams playing in the Alamo, Champs Sports, Orange, and St. Petersburg Bowls. They’ll be getting SEC refs, and it will be interesting to see who the conference sends as its best officials.

  • “After grading each official’s work during the regular season, each conference sends its top officials at each position to NCAA national coordinator David Parry, who assembles bowl crews by conference.”

    Then i better not see Marc Curles refing a bowl game.

  • The scary thing – what if Curles *is* one of the top four SEC refs?

  • Then i say all SEC fans everywhere revolt & hold protests like Tea Partiers. Better yet I’ll grab my gun and meet you one Mike Slive’s front lawn.
