If you watch the whole game, it was the second time he was going to be used as a "pick". This ref was also a player back in his days at Kentucky, and SportsCenter joked that he got a flashback of his playing days and had to put someone down.

It was hilarious either way, Garcia shouldn't be using the refs to block for him, he has 10 players on the field that are supposed to do that.

The ref was also in the right position.......to make a great open field tackle!
