The officiating of the game, which Auburn won 65-43 has come under much scrutiny among Arkansas fans because of the two controversial calls that went against the Razorbacks. Both plays directly led to Auburn touchdowns.

Errors and incorrect calls from the game could have possibly been avoided with better vision.
