Wow... That is terrible.

The ref even runs up almost angrily signaling incomplete.
Like: "no, nope, frick no"

Me and your old man both...Bama was down 34-7 goin' into the 4th quarter and Walter Lewis led what should've been a comeback for the ages if not for that call...Bama would've won (with a PAT) 35-34...

The year before that game, in the same end zone, a Penn State receiver was clearly out of bounds (by almost 2 yards) when he caught the ball and it was ruled a TD in a game against Nebraska, costing Nebraska it's only loss that year...Penn State would go on to win its first national championship. Not sure if it's accurate, but I read somewhere that it was the same officiating crew in that game as it was against Bama...

It was so bad, Sports Illustrated prepared an article and illustration that mocked the large chunk of real estate effectively de-annexed from the back of the end zone and extended a small chunk to the left side to show the true dimensions of the Penn State end zone...
