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.


So, if it were so critical, then why didn't he?

I see it as an oversight/mistake.
Unfortunately, we made too many uncharacteristic mistakes in that game which seems to be a pattern when playing Alabama.
Having said that, I didn't expect our team to 3-peat because I didn't believe we had a championship level defense.
Still, I think we had an overall better team than Bama and should have won that game.

Somebody in the booth didn’t get it to him fast enough. Kirby is on the field so there’s no way he’s making these calls by himself. I would assume he has somebody watching the replays and letting him know when to make a challenge.
