Big 12 Football Officiating All-Access

The work and preparation for a college football officiating crew goes far beyond the three hours or so spent calling the game.

"Officiating is about doing the basic things right... if you do the basic things right youll have a good game..." -such an excellent quote!

You don't know how much time and work major (and minor) college officials put into the game. From getting to the city the night before, the meetings that evening, to game day and the meeting before and after the game. They do a great job nd if you think you can do better then start (like we all did) in Jr High and proceed up. Most of the college officials have at least one state final came under their belts before they are even considered for college. So unless you are in your early 20's - forget it.

Jealous, I’d love to tour AT&T stadium

[ZachHudson-pddi]

I’m 19 and an official in West Virginia and I get to Ref in AT&T Stadium

Those who think can do a better job, why not become an official...and PRAY that you get out of the stadium alive.

The officiating at the Texas Tech @ WVU game 2.5 weeks ago was egregious

[Sam-fjug]

You call it as it happens no matter when and where, you don't play favorites call what is and not what is not.
Don't receive special favors and dinners stay unbiased and unconnected to anyone.
This is where favoritism starts and

[gocygo]

...huh, didn't recognize any of these guys without their white canes, white cups, dark glasses & guide dogs...the rulebooks are in braille...so that's comforting...

[craighorton]

NASL referees had the same great dedication.

[haydencarter]

Anyone know who the apparent 9th official is that’s wearing a black under armor jacket instead of stripes? Is he the alternate official or something else?

[gatorbodine]

[camscdan]

I’ll take these refs over the pac 12 refs any day. Heck, I’ll take high school refs over the pac 12 ref# any day.

The music throughout this video is really distracting. I hope your video editor has moved on.
