Kirby probably didn’t complain. He should’ve thrown challenged.


He couldn't challenge, has to come from upstairs. The only thing he could've done was call a TO, which given the situation, he couldn't afford to lose the TO with so little time left in the half.

It was 100% on the officials and SEC...they supposedly watch every play and call an official's TO when something needs further review/more time to review. So they watched that play live, watched the replay, and SOMEHOW were satisfied it was 100% a catch.

Then later in the game stopped play to review a Georgia catch that wasn't even in question. Why did the officials deam that play worthy of review but not a crucial 4th and 15 or whatever?

Incorrect. The rule is: Kirby could have called a TO and informed the officials directly that he was challenging the call on the field.
If his challenge had been upheld, then the TO would have been restored.
Frankly, the play was too critical not to challenge it.
