Q. What about the penalties? I saw you run towards the officials after the game. I don't imagine you were telling them "good luck in the future."

A. I was just telling them what a great job I thought they did. We will look at the tape and see, but any time it's that one-sided, I mean I know we've been off three weeks but they were calling motion penalties on our slot backs for changing their stance. They said they were simulating the play, yet their whole left side of the line does a hitch on every play. Holding, tackling guys, I mean I saw the replay on the one they called on Reggie Campbell, holding on the reverse that we ran down to the four, that was ridiculous. Any time we hit a big play it was coming back. Then we score, and Lamar needs to know better than to jump up and down, but who is going to call that in a game with a minute to go and you just scored to win the game. The kid scored the go-ahead touchdown and is excited and jumps up and down and now you're going to give them another chance because you're going to make us kickoff at the 20. Then, on top of that, on the extra-point they have two guys behind the line pushing the down linemen through the block, which everybody knows is against the rules.

 

Q. Were those ACC officials?

A. What do you think?
