The funny thing about that, is the head of the Coaches' Association (I believe it was Jim Behiem from Syracuse) gave an address to the officials at the NCAA Camps and told the officials they want rules followed despite the game situation or who was involved. But to know that would take some actual investigating reporting rather than just spouting off at the mouth about the way things are called to their liking.

Yes, in fact there's an official T-shirt. Of course, home team must wear white.
