Did anyone see the ending to that game? Toledo is now demanding that they be awarded the win from the big east. I dont know if that can be done but I know from seeing the kick that refs and replay officials should be fired.
For those who didnt see the game. Near the end of regulation syracuse was down 29-30 pending a PAT. The ball narrowly missed the upright and should have been wide left. The ref on the ground ruled it good and so did the replay official. The problem is that in the replay the ball never disappears behind the goal post obviously meaning it didn't go in. The extra point forced overtime where Syracuse won by a FG.
I wonder what changes we may see in college football due to this type of thing. Do we start using non conference refs for all games so they are truly neutral?
