Big 12 Admits Officials Made Timing Error in OU-Texas Game

[Cornfusion 250]

Since it is a bye week, here is something to pass the time:

Texas and Oklahoma ended up playing a fourth quarter that was 39 seconds longer than it should have been.

The Big 12 admitted Monday that officials incorrectly added 39 seconds back onto the clock in Oklahoma’s four-overtime win after reviewing the spot of a Sam Ehlinger run. Ehlinger had initially been granted a first down on the play, but officials determined that he hadn’t gotten to the line of scrimmage.

This is rude and insensitive.

Accurate though.

So much this. The B12 needs to get fucked for that game, start to finish. Was there ever a statement from the B12 or did they pretend it didn't happen?

I doubt our staff even brought it up to the conference.

"We questioned the officials about it,” Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley said at his Monday news conference. “I actually thought they were going to stop it and talk about it, but they didn't. We were not happy about it over on our sideline."

Comes from OU bitching, since our last score in the 4th was with 14 seconds left.

[Nueces River Rat 5,801]

Laughable....

I would rather them fess up for the screw ups that actually control the flow of  the game such as the recent TCU game and Okie State 2015.   The later was true corruption and  no one was ever held accountable.   

[A’Dam Psycho 1,499]

How are they possibly this bad? Imagine if blOU lost. They’d be crying for the next ten years

[babysdaddy 2,731]

What an abortion.  So we should've never even gotten close to tying the game up.  Because there is zero chance Riley throws on 3rd down if there was 1:20 left rather than 2:06 or whatever.  Ball don't lie, I guess.

[Doc Reeves 6,434]

Wait.
So you’re telling me the big Xii officiating was sub-par?

 

[Pato del Muerto 53,607]

We did something wrong that actually helped Texas?  Better address that publicly.   That’s not supposed to happen. 

[Covri 6,376]

Tom cant even beat a shitty ou team with the ref’s help. 
 

 

[SwanderedTalent 5,761]

OU should vacate the win

[South Austin 53,278]

I feel so much better about being 2-2.

Irrelevant conference where every game miraculously comes down to the final drive kinda admits it's full of shit.

Wow cool

[n64ra 1,150]

Did Riley pay the refs to publish this so his decision to throw on 4th down doesn't look so bad? "There should have been less time on the clock!"

Yeah, he could have run 40 seconds off the clock, but the dumbass had Rattler throw a pass.

All instances of incompetent/corrupt officiating pale in comparison to Grant Teaff’s goodbye party in 1992...

[Had Enough 2,125]

Hey yo

I don't really remember this play.

But I do remember us preliminarily getting a 1st down run from Sam which was overturned and resulted in a 4th down run for a 1st. That play chewed up additional time. From the stadium view, there was no justification to overturn. Granted that view was not great to make a determination.

You think?   I still think Okie Stats 2015 had some sort of conspiracy behind it by someone else calling the shots.  

[Had Enough 2,125]

Watching Texas Football Overdrive.

We did come out ahead on the time issue, but not convinced there was proof Sam did not get the first.

But I am curious on the Kerstetter personal foul on the Sam run to the 1 in the first half. There should have been a check for a 1st. That was blown off. If its deadball, then it possibly should have been first down from the 18.


And if someone writes about an officiating error, shouldn't they get the details correct? Maybe I can't read but thought it said Sam didn't get back to the los. He was well past the los.

Of course there was no evidence he didn't make it. Not from those angles. Nada. I like how they pretended they could see it well enough to know he was 1/2 yard short. Complete nonsense. Had they ruled Sam short on the field, there wouldn't have been enough in the video to overturn that, either. 

And of course they fucked up the clock. When they added 56 seconds or whatever it was, I knew something was wrong there.

Amazing. They actually managed to fuck both teams on one play.

Exactly. If we were on our 5th straight conference title no one would give a shit which conference we were members of.

[Bill Lumbergh 7,351]

It's so surprising that, in a conference full of objectively awful officiating on a week in, week out basis, the first public acknowledgement of officiating fault I can remember is to recognize something that was unfavorable for OU. Just a truly shocking revelation.

[OU Sucks 9,405]

I liked when Eagles(?) had a catch near the ground, they called it a catch on the field, reviewed it for like 5 minutes, somehow found indisputable evidence it wasn't a catch and reversed it.  OU sucks had a very similar play on a crucial third down, but the replay showed the ball dropping out of the WR's hands and bouncing off the ground.  Ruled a catch and no review.  Meanwhile, there was a stoppage to review pretty much every big play we made, despite how obvious it was.  Shitty coaching, shitty execution, and shitty officiating seem to be the hallmarks of every game.

Hey Cornfusion

Can you let me know 3 Big 12 persons responsible for the officiating (not including Bowlsby)? Bios from the 12 website. Actually I don't think Burks is on there.

And if one of those had Nebraska ties, might they be hostile towards the Horns?

this is the best "water is wet" thread of 2020.

[Pato del Muerto 53,607]

Sam runs for a first down 3 yards past the line to gain, I believe in the ou red zone. Better check that spot...and give the ou defense a rest and a chance to substitute.

Maybe in a Texas-Kansas State game, but probably not Texas-Oklahoma.  Then again, who knows what triggers any certain individual?  For example, I firmly believed that nobody hated Nebraska football more than Steve Pedersen, former Athletic Director of Nebraska.  He had past bad history with Nebraska football players when he was a student at Nebraska, one of them being a cousin of mine.  He tried to gut the Tom Osborne legacy, even removing plaques and pictures of that era and purging anybody in the athletic program from those times.

So could a Nebraskan not like Texas?  Sure.  So could a Texan or an Oklahoman or somebody from Kansas.

[Pato del Muerto 53,607]

I can think of one Nebraskan4texas though
