Same exact thing happened with that Ute receiver’s “catch” against Oklahoma State.
The ruling on the field matters. They’re going into these reviews seeing it 50/50, and whatever way they lean, that’s what the call is. That is wrong. No overturning should ever be controversial, possibly with the exception of some biased fans on the losing end. Whatever call you made on the field, that call only changes if there’s no absolutely no argument to keep that call. Even if there’s a 99% chance the call on the field was wrong, and a 1% chance that call was right, the call must stand. Personally I feel there’s about a 25% chance that that was a catch, but I know it’s not indisputable!
Sorry VT fans, y’all got robbed.
