What was the controversy at the end of the ND vs BYU game about?

Clear interference wasn't called, and there should have been one second on the clock. Focus on the no-call interference caused everyone to miss the one second.

The officiating in these games every week is getting worse and worse every year. You know the refs really assed everything up when they allow ND to be screwed over and lose a game.

Ball hit the ground with .01 on the clock. By the time anyone realized it, half of the Mormon population was on the field celebrating.

Add to this Michigan was undeservedly given an extra .01 earlier this year and it's more gas being tossed on the talking points fire.

I don't really have a huge problem with the no call pass interference. They were letting them grapple all night and it's generally understood that refs keep the flag in their pocket on final plays unless it's egregious - and even egregiousness happens on hail mary jump balls.

I thought it probably was pass interference but it wasn't nearly as blatant as some people are making it out.

If it wasn't the last play of the game they probably call it most of the time. On a final play like that they are hesitant to throw flags

Did you see the PI call on Auburn late in the Auburn vs Georgia game? I was flipping between the Alabama and Auburn games on the radio yesterday. I had just went back to that game and the Auburn radio crew was going nuts over that call. It was either a PI called on Auburn or a PI no call. I think it was Auburn got nailed for PI. The Auburn broadcast crew though was blowing up about it. Was it PI or just a bs call?

The moral of this story is get far enough ahead so one damn call does not make the difference in the game! It’s hard to do, but I don’t begrudge coaches running up the score like I used to because of this BS. And I hate instant replay because of shite like this too. Seems like the game was more fun before we could analyze every single tenth of a second on every play!!

The ball went 20 ft over his head out of bounds. Whats bullshite is it was uncatchable unless he climbed on ths AU players back and jumped. They, even the "expert" somehow claimed it was catchable. Maybe by the water boy behind the bench.

Sc got screwed on this in 2011 vs auburn. Kept us out of the SEC Championship game.

Yes I have a long memory.

Craziest thing is no one at ESPN said anything during the broadcast. I have a hard time believing no one in that booth noticed the clock on the field having one second keft while the ball is on the ground.

Fowler on footage from the booth even made some kind of hand gesture.

The ball was just out of reach of the receiver and wasn’t even close to even landing out of bounds.
