I don’t buy the fumble/incompletion.
If Sternberger caught it in the end zone and it was ruled a TD, LSU fans would have the opposite take. 15 years ago that was a fumble. In today’s game it’s an incompletion.
The refs are consistent in that regard. Look at that ole miss catch last week. Caught it, two feet down, fell onto his back, then had ball stripped...incomplete.
I don’t agree with the rules but that’s the rules these days, you have to maintain possession longer than in the past.

I agree. I think it was the right call, just like the fumble on LSU's stip/TD of Williams in the 4th quarter was the right call, but both were VERY close.
