Odd camera angle. Looks like Barnes' left arm reached out, but you really can't see it. FWIW, Barnes never seemed like a hothead who would do something like that anyway.

Agreed that if the ref essentially "flopped" (faked it), then a fine AT MINIMUM should be in order. Maybe more, since it would go directly against the impartiality that refs are supposed to maintain.

I searched to see if there was video from any other angle but could not find any.

I’ve also been unable to find anything else on the incident online beyond Barnes saying (postgame when asked) he can’t say what he’d like to say, but he trusted the SEC would look into it and appropriately decide on what needed to be done.
