[QUOTE="DJRichardson4threee, post: 1811253, member: 91103"] Tbh, I think the most egregiously wrong call by the refs hasn’t been mentioned much on here. WTF was that call where we pushed the MSU player out of bounds with like 1:50 left in the game and the refs didn’t stop the clock??? Never seen anything remotely like that. The only possible explanation was forward progress, but A. there was no whistle blowing that play dead before he got pushed out, B. There’s no way that was forward progress anyways, if that play happened in the middle of the field, 0% chance they call forward progress because the MSU player could’ve easily broken that tackle. That absolutely made a difference as that cost us like 40 seconds on the clock, and we really just ran out of time at the end, TD could have easily ran for the first down if time weren’t an issue on that second to last play of the game. Also haven’t seen mentioned, they never explained what the flag was for on that last play….pretty sure you can’t end the game on a flag, it should’ve been an untimed down if the flag was on MSU.
