The NFL's Conference Championship referee assignments are in, according to FootballZebras.com, and the Philadelphia Eagles' matchup with the Minnesota Vikings will be officiated by the one and only Ed Hochuli.
Over the years, Hochuli has presided over a slew of memorable Eagles games, including the 4th and 1 "They stopped them again!" game, 4th and 26, the air guitar game, Nick Foles' seven-TD game, and the Snow Bowl. Since 1999 (the cutoff in which Pro-Football-Reference.com began tracking officials' games), Hochuli has officiated 18 Eagles games. The Eagles are 11-7 in those games, listed here:
• January 7, 2001 (playoffs): Eagles 10, Giants 20
• December 21, 2002: Eagles 27, Cowboys 3
• October 5, 2003: Eagles 27, Redskins 25

Hochuli's crews are known for throwing a lot of flags, but at least it's not Pete Morelli.
