Washington just got screwed by the refs.


Oct 6, 2013, 1:52 AM

If they showed us every angle they had, there's no way that should've been overturned.

Yup, agreed. Not sure how they could overturn that one

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Agreed


Oct 6, 2013, 1:54 AM

I think it was probably incomplete, but no way, at all, that there was indisputable evidence shown on any replay we've sern

Agreed. I felt it hit the ground on the replays but there

is no way what I saw was indisputable so the call on the field should've stood.

That's what I'll never understand about the replays, some stuff that seems so obvious is deemed inconclusive and other times when you can barely tell it is enough to overturn. Consistently inconsistent!

... and the PAC12's #5 wins. Ask Northwestern about it.***

ESPN is saying that the tip of the ball hit the ground. I don't see it. the ball can touch the ground as long as you have control of it underneath it. bogus. I have seen that call stand a million times.

I think the ball probably hit the ground, but the few angles


Oct 6, 2013, 2:08 AM

they showed on the broadcast didn't give a clear picture of what happened. They only showed the back angle. The replay officials must have had a better angle than what we saw.

So you think the ESPiN director decided not to show it? I


Oct 6, 2013, 2:11 AM

highly doubt that.

They gave us a side angle too...

Still couldn't tell

That ball definitely bounced off the ground***

I don't see how anybody can definitively say that hit the...

Ground unless they were standing on the spot.

Couldn't tell by any of the replays.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpgbadge-ringofhonor-franc1968.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Thus, by rule, it can not be overturned... unless you're #5.***

That's the camp I'm in....

Play not confirmed but play stands.

It's getting to be a standard conference 'occurrence'.***

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Definitely? How on earth can you say that?


Oct 6, 2013, 2:17 AM [ in reply to That ball definitely bounced off the ground*** ]

I see one angle where it appears it may have hit the ground, but then again I've seen replays where it appears someone is stepping out then I see another angle right on top that clearly shows they aren't out. Unfortunately there weren't any clear views. Angles can be deceiving and I certainly didn't see enough not to dispute it so how can you?

Re: That ball definitely bounced off the ground***


Oct 6, 2013, 4:52 AM [ in reply to That ball definitely bounced off the ground*** ]

Definitely. I was so confused why the announcers kept saying you couldn't tell while watching that angle from behind. It was pretty obvious. You can see the ball bounce up off the ground into his arm. I was reeeally hoping they wouldn't overturn it though; I wanted to see a good ending. Plus I wanted Washington to win, but that anticlimactic ending was pretty terrible.
