Has BYU ever won a game thanks to a really bad call/missed call by the refs?

*missed facemask penalty vs SDSU on same play. So not exactly.

Didn't BYU beat Washington years ago, in part to a bad celebration call. The QB
Cougar TD
11/14/17 8:22am
I'd guess you'd have to demonstrate how the celebration call resulted in a blocked PAT
Indy Coug
11/14/17 8:23am
Yeah, it was the only thing that came to mind.

I thought at the time that UW would have gone for 2. And probably would've won.

Jake Locker would have got the 2 point conversion easily
rggee
11/14/17 4:44pm
No, Locker threw the ball 50 feet into the air. Happened right in front of me.

I remember on Sportcenter that night, they went through every other TD...

Yet the announcers stated it was a rule he broke. Dumb rule/Right call

They were mostly pointing out the selective nature of enforcing the rule.

Calling a penalty for a specific rule violation is a good call. Now if you

The lengths Ute fans on CB go to gin a good call into a bad is what astounds me.

Not going to great lengths. Just sharing my take on a game I happened to watch.

Objectively, the Locker call (in their stadium) was exactly by the rule book...
Cully
11/16/17 7:05pm
No, it doesn't count as an incorrect call, but it absolutely counts as a bad one
scootsy
11/16/17 8:04pm
Did Locker "throw the ball high into the air"? That is the exact wording of the example written into the rule
mvtoro
11/17/17 1:00pm
Define high... 15-feet? 25-feet? 50-feet? It's a subjective call, by rule. Refs

RE: Define high... 15-feet? 25-feet? 50-feet? It's a subjective call, by rule.
Cully
11/17/17 3:06pm
So your argument is that he didn't throw it *high enough* to be considered "high"?
mvtoro
11/17/17 3:56pm
I never said the call was incorrect, I said the rule is by nature subjective.
scootsy
11/17/17 3:58pm
OK. So it was a correct call that you, also subjectively, don't like. That's fine. I don't much like it either.
mvtoro
11/17/17 4:59pm
Yeah, pac-10 officiating really sucked. So does pac-12 officiating.

JJ Deluigi's nonfumble at home (vs SDST?). It was important to the win.

Mark May cried about it for days

That's right. I couldn't remember what he did, but glad BYU still won
Cougar TD
11/14/17 8:36am
So then it would fall under the really bad call heading, not missed call
scootsy
11/14/17 9:00am
Didnt spike the ball. Threw it up in the air. Seems minor, but much different.
Count Cougar
11/14/17 8:46am
No, it was the correct call unfortunately for them. Then the kick was blocked.

This is actually listed on the wikipedia page for "Touchdown celebration" as the first (of 2) examples of how the rule

Except that wasn't a bad call. It was absolutely the right call.

Yes, the 1980 Holiday Bowl. Matt Braga trapped a ball that was ruled a TD catch.
CopperLix
11/14/17 8:23am
Is there definitive proof showing he didn't catch it?
Indy Coug
11/14/17 8:24am
It sure looked like a trap to me.
CopperLix
11/14/17 8:25am
Per Paul James, Braga reportedly acknowledged "it bounced once, maybe twice."

I watched that over and over, very blurry, but it doesn't look like he gets his
BlueForLife
11/14/17 8:38pm
I don't see that as much of a bad call by refs as it was just an angle thing.

Was Doman's knee down before the goal line in 2000?
ag4cougs
11/14/17 8:25am
BYU was only down one. They could have still kicked the FG
Indy Coug
11/14/17 8:26am
*could have...
ag4cougs
11/14/17 8:28am
Or ran another play from the 6 inch line.
mulletino
11/14/17 8:30am
So a FG shorter than a PAT would have won it even if the call was different
Indy Coug
11/14/17 8:31am
Staley fumble from that game?

Sure as crap lost a game to Utah because of the blown call on the knee being down.

2002/2010. Yep. Blown calls for sure.

2002 was ridiculous. The ball either crossed the goal line or forward progress

Those calls were pretty common that year. They were cracking down on celebration

Ah yes, 1998, the year they really cracked down on understated celebrations.
