A rarity: Texas Tech coach Joey McGuire praises referees despite loss to Oregon in CFP quarterfinals

Texas Tech's Joey McGuire did something on Thursday that he doesn't think he ever previously did after a game. The Atlantic Coast Conference's crew that worked the College Football Playoff at the Orange Bowl called nine penalties — six on Texas Tech, three on Oregon — during the Ducks' 23-0 victory, and no flags that came out during the game seemed to have any pronounced effect on the outcome. “A lot of people don't say it and I don't know if I've ever said it in a press conference, but I thought the officiating was as good as I've been a part of in college football,” McGuire said.
