i cant Believe how big of bullshit that was
Never was a pass interference, He fumbled, and that was not a catch. 3 calls, this game was completely Rigged by the Refs
Yeah, their D was pretty weak. I disagree a little on the fumble as I think he was down. The catch on 4th and 6 was very close and hard to tell. I don't think it was really cheating or anything.
This is a take from someone that follows Tulsa football and has attended games dating back to their days in the WAC.
1. Pass Interference Call - It looked 50/50. I think it probably was pass interference but the call came very late, reminiscent of the Ohio St/Miami game, and it was thrown like 30 yards away from the play.
2. The fumble - That was 100% a fumble. I don't know how they "overturned" a clear fumble that was called a fumble on the field. I'm a fan of Tulsa but WTH were they looking at? It was so obvious from almost every angle.
3. 4th down catch - This looked more like an incomplete pass to me. From the back angle, the nose of the ball hit the ground. I can't believe this was the third call on the drive that went TU's way.
4. Honorable Mention - Anyone remember the 3rd down play when ECU threw a TD pass? It was called a TD on the field and they reviewed it and overturned it. First of all, it looked like the WR's toe touched down in the end zone first and then his heel landed out of bounds. This would make it a TD...Secondly, it wasn't exactly conclusive so I have no idea how they overturned the call.
TU is a team that will sneak up and beat teams as an underdog (see UCF) but I would always be careful backing them as a big favorite. They tend to play to their competition. They'll lose to some crappy team and then turn around and beat Cincinnati. Just watch.
The worst part of the that catch was the “call on the field was confirmed” should have been at the very least
”the call on the field stands” so they are saying with video they could confirm
that catch. Hahaha.
