Tap title to read story
Longtime referee Ken Williamson has been suspended by the Southeastern Conference for the rest of the season after his crew’s work in Georgia’s 20-10 win at Auburn on Oct. 11, sources told ESPN. Williamson, who had planned to retire after the season, drew scrutiny over a goal-line fumble ruling upheld on replay and a targeting penalty initially missed but enforced after review. Auburn’s AD John Cohen and coach Hugh Freeze confronted him at halftime. NBC rules analyst Terry McAulay called the punishment too severe. The SEC declined comment; Yellowhammer News first reported the suspension.
