winning the game, then the other team bullied the ref into reversing the call?

BYU lost, but then they replayed from that point the next day and BYU won (then BYU lost the next game)

Never seen that before ever. Really odd.

How did nobody make a huge deal out of this?

HRCougar

7/31/21 7:11pm

The whole thing was asinine.

Jimo Dashen

They probably should have taken the red card

That was suss….

Cthack1

Correct. And the ball was in. So weird.

Not just complained, but challenged the initial challenge and somehow got it

Replay showed the tape move…..

The sand on the tap bounced up off the tape which would only happen if the ball

Not necessarily. The ball hitting the sand first could project it outward and

Watch the replay…..the sand on the tape was a foot away.

Cthack1

7/31/21 8:24pm

I thought of this, but it wouldn't launch the sand on the tape like what

That's not what happened

Usually in that type of situation, if the ref really feels it's not clear, they just replay the point. Makes no sense.

How does that even happen?

According to the officials, Newton and basic physics are both wrong.

Who has the authority to overrule the original call?

Cthack1

7/31/21 7:15pm

I'm not sure, but I think the third challenge goes to the UN

m1k3l33

7/31/21 7:17pm

The announcer said something like "there will definitely be a 2-minute report"

m1k3l33

7/31/21 7:20pm

I think he was just making a joke.

When the ump makes a bad call you accept it and move on

HRCougar

Very good points. Plus the video evidence is definitive.

The sand on the tape is definitive proof the tape was contacted by the ball

slatecoug

7/31/21 7:52pm

All I can see is the face in the sand to the right of tape just below the ball

Martin Van Nostrand

7/31/21 7:55pm

clearly out, line didn't move at all

Hill4Heisman

7/31/21 9:02pm

Watch the sand sitting on the tape. It jumps straight up and lands back on tape

slatecoug

7/31/21 9:07pm

The tape moves. Watch the inside edge of the tape just above where the ball

Seems pretty obvious what happened,

Here’s the explanation. Still seems really sketchy.

That is not what the Video showed….can’t just say it didn’t
