WATCH: Did refs botch this FG call in the Georgia-Missouri game?
Published:
No. 2 Georgia (3-0) is hosting Missouri (3-0) in an SEC East showdown this afternoon, but as 14-point underdogs, the Tigers need all the help they can get to remain competitive against the defending national champion runner-ups.
It appears the refs won’t be doing them any favors today, though.
Mizzou junior kicker Tucker McCann, who converted 15-of-17 (88.2 percent) attempts in 2017, appeared to have contributed three points mid-way through the first quarter as his kick grazed the flag in the upper-right hand corner of the post.
However, the kick was dubbed “no good” by the stripes and the score remained 7-0 in favor of Georgia:

What do you think? Was the field goal good or did the refs make the right call?
