LOOK: Fans claim even more SEC bias toward Alabama after questionable play wasn’t reviewed

Fans claiming that the SEC is biased toward Alabama have had plenty of ammunition in the past few weeks.
From LSU LB Devin White getting suspended for the first half of the Alabama game on a questionable targeting call to a play that happened in the first quarter on Saturday against Mississippi State, there’s plenty of outrage out there in the SEC world.
On a play on Alabama’s first drive, RB Damien Harris appeared to fumble, but the refs ruled him down. The Bulldogs clearly recovered, so it seemed like a review was likely.
However, even as the Tide took their time to run another play, no review came, and that drew the ire of fans everywhere on Twitter, as you can see below:

How do you not at least take a look at that? Typical @SEC! BAMA is good enough not to need your bias.

And the refs already showing bias for Bama for not calling that fumble

Birmingham won’t buzz in to review an obvious fumble but they sure will back up a play and throw a guy out for targeting that wasn’t even called. #SEC #Bamabias
