Western Michigan absolutely has to sue Michigan and the Big Ten and force all video and audio from the review center, including audio between the review center and the head ref, in open court.


And this is why no one will follow the ACC's lead in doing what they've done with replay

They reviewed it specifically to check the time. And then gave them a free play.

NO!

This was a fricking REVIEW. A no call is just that, no call.

This was a call in direct opposition to actual visual evidence to allow for another chance at a desired outcome by the B1G.

This was fraud. Not a mistake, criminal activity.

They got hosed but the gamblers didn't give a damn.
Michigan was a 28 point favorite. The "Western" bets were good as gold.

Now, how about those few crazy SOBs that took the WM money line.

Think they might be a bit upset?

Western Michigan as a university lost out because of this.

Have you ever heard of money line bets? Have you ever heard of live betting, when bets are made during the game, which I’m sure included a large amount of money line bets?

This was actually worse because it was reviewed. And that play made me break up with the NFL. I’m still not over it.

Yeah, except for the potentially few degenerates who had the WMU moneyline in the last leg of their parlay that would have hit at odds that paid $100k on $100 bets.

This is beside the point, just pointing out that the sportsbooks could have had a lot to lose. The important point is that we just watched a team get absolutely fricked in HD slo-mo. And sadly, I don't think anything comes from it. Everything is too insane now. I used to love college football in part because it was an escape from the absolute madness we're fed in the news every day. It's now just as bad as everything else.
