My only thought ... was the Yellow Line right?

I remember right before the play, the crawler on the bottom said "3rd and 5" but the yellow line clearly was 6 yards from the line of scrimmage. THEN he made 5 yards (not 6) and they gave him the first down.

I DON'T know ... I think it was probably one of MANY MANY mistakes in spotting the ball all night.... BUT there is also the possibility the yellow line was wrong.

Refs were way off on spots all night. Missing tugged jerseys right in front of

Well 1st down (assuming 3rd and 5 was accurate) was achieved. Just got a bonus

Agreed. Both positive and negative. Not sure what their problem was

These refs put the ball where your foot was when you went down. It’s a new experimental rule.

The original first down was on the 47 but got moved to 46 after

This sounds right, but I'm not sure.

Yeah. The team was ready to go hurry up for the 4th down.

How about the one where they marked Allgeier 2 yards short even AFTER review?

That one was at a quarter break as well. Plenty of time to fix it

They did review it, and the play stood. Absolutely mind-boggling.

It did not stand. They said "confirmed". That is WAY worse than "stands"

PAC-12 refs, not biased, just inept

They need to start giving sobriety tests to PAC 12 refs before each game.

Haha this one really made me cringe! I was shocked.

It is possible that the yellow line was in the wrong place.

No way it was a first down but was happy to see it

Looks like his left foot is stretched over the yellow line.

And the other weird call to question the PAC-12 ref’s sobriety

I'll tell you how: Pac-12 Refs

I wonder if the PAC-12 refs could get a NIL deal with eyeglassworld?
