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.

The only difference in this scenario is a running clock. Clearly they were going to have to sort things out so a running clock after placing a bowl ready for play and blowing the whistle… And at that point, auburn had nearly 30 seconds to bring the field-goal team out on the field. Who knows with a slightly different flap of a butterfly’s wings if Auburn would have missed or not…, But he’s not wrong about the running clock

You spot it where it initially landed.

This needs to be changed. Both units should be required to huddle on the sidelines and not be allowed to run onto the field until the ref whistles for the play clock to start.
