Bad calls in our favor?

Dryden,

The 02 Purdue field goal was very close. I remember the TV crew at first saying the clock expired then showing in slow motion that it did not, or was very close.

here is one. 95 at Penn State. Eddie George fumbles, but the ref misses it. Next play is a bomb to Terry Glenn for the score.

Penn State (I don't remember the year) when we had a pass called complete when it clearly was incomplete. The player dropped the ball and we went in to score.

As Bucks07 said, I believe that was '03 and I'm pretty sure the pass was to the TE. I can't remember if they didn't have replay or the Bucks got the next play quickly to avoid the review. McMullen was the QB after Krenzel got knocked out in the 1st half.

Actually, now that I looked it up, there were several interesting calls in that one.

one of the more blatant was last year against northwestern. lil animals "forced fumble" of the nw widereceiver as they were moving the ball nicely against us on their first drive. that was without a doubt one of the absolute worst calls i have ever seen in my life. not necissarily from a perspective of its impact on the outcome of the game. but as far as being completely missed by both the officials and the replay guys. there simply is no excuse for that one. horrible horrible call no question about it.

I would also throw out the FG that ended the first half in that same '02 game @ Purdue. That clock operator sure gave Nuge an awful lot of time to kick that one, and I'm pretty certain the clock was at :00 before the snap, but I won't complain. :biggrin:

As mentioned by some, they did get that one right. Right after the play, Musburger stated definitively that he didn't get it off in time. Then they ran the replay showing that Nuge did, in fact, get it off. I recall making a phone call to my father calling Musburger a dumbass right after the half ended.

didnt have a halo rule at the time did they in the ncaa? speaking of that remember tito pauls hit against msu?

Unbelievable hit. I swear he was horizontal to the ground at an altitude of about 4 feet and it seemed like he coverad about 5 yards like that. He got flagged for it, but I think the refs blew that one.

The part most people forget is that the guy he layed out, popped right back up and I believe jumped on the ball for the recovery.
