I saw one of our o lineman grab the jersey and hold on as the d lineman ran away. Clear holding call that was not made.

Yes, you are right there. I can't blame them too much if they were "letting them play" on both sides. I don't fault players for taking advantage of the opportunity to hold if refs make it apparent they're not going to call it. That's strategic.

Yep, both sides agreed pre-game to allow holding to go uncalled, at a special request by the UR coaching staff, to make sure the spiders QB did not go off the field on a cart.
