The proper call on replay was “After review, the quarterback made a backwards pass with no immediate recovery of a dead ball. Auburn will retain possession where the ball stopped, and play will resume on my whistle”
This exactly. The reviewer decided it was an incomplete pass when, in fact, it was a backwards pass and therefore a lateral and a fumble. The clock should have been running but instead Auburn was allowed to calmly trot their field goal unit out onto the field and kick it with no added pressure.

So where do you spot it? The refs blew the play dead immediately. Do you spot it where the ball came to rest........after the Arky player muffed it several yards from where it was first touched?
Even if that is what you do............the clock stopped for review so Auburn had time to set up for the FG, which is exactly what happened. The ref would have started the clock, which is exactly what happened.
