Say what? I can't agree with that statement at the college level. Whoever's handing out the assignments and giving direction to the officials in the respective league usually will let the officials know if there might be problems. Most officials are also usually aware going in if there is a traditional rivalry involved, trouble expected from a previous game, etc. It's usually made part of the officials' pre-game re: what to expect.
