UNC wasn't awarded an extra play because of the penalty...

It was because they got the spike down with 1 second left.


Not that hard to understand.

I know. But they are from Tennessee, so we can't expect them to think too much.....

but you shouldn't be able to spike the ball with 15 people on the field and nobody is set. coaches should never try and rush the field goal unit on at the end of the game. Just snap the ball whether people are set or not.

The problem is that UNC essentially got a free time out because of their penalty. The problem is also that they should have been backed up 15 yards and not 5. Also, when the referee declares the game to be over, it's over. He did. Then they changed their mind.
