Wow. Were these C-USA officials, by chance?

The article plainly stated that they were MAC officials. Of course, it's something CUSA officials could have done.

C-USA officials never would have admitted their mistake

Bah. "Could have"? Would have. C-USA officials are awful.

Crazy thing is that the official should have made the right call in the first place. It was clear as day that he didn't have the ball before any part of his body touched the ground out of bounds. The replay official really, REALLY screwed the pooch!

Thanks Mr Obvious, but my point was that the official ON THE FIELD had the vantage point to make the right call and it should have never gotten to the replay official. I believe this thread is addressing the REPLAY offical getting it wrong.

Again, I agree. But they make mistakes on the field in real time and the "crazy thing" is that the replay guy couldnt press slowmo on his tivo remote
