Last night in the TCU vs WVU game, TCU had a 3rd and 8 at the WVU 37-yard line with 53 seconds left in the ballgame. On the play, it looked like Chandler Morris was sacked for a loss and that lost yardage would take them out of field goal range. On the way down, Morris threw a pass wildly up in the air that landed a few feet from where he was sacked. He was in the pocket, it did not appear there was any receiver in the area, and the ball did not look like it made it past the line of scrimmage. The sack was reviewed by the Big 12 and the ruling was that he was not down, and the pass was ruled incomplete. TCU saved the lost yardage and was able to try to kick a tying field goal from the 37.
Dumb question: Why did the Big 12 officials not review for intentional grounding which would have been a penalty plus loss of down? It was very similar to the wild pass Bryant Young threw in the endzone last year in the Alabama game which was also not called as grounding.
