At least as bad, possibly worse. They're trying to hand this to iowa.

I don't know if anything could be worse than WVU-Pitt but this one has been pretty bad. That 4th IU TD getting overturned was one of the single worst replay calls I've ever seen. Total screw job.

If Iowa ends up winning this it's worse, because it worked.

there is some serious home cooking going on in this game.

It's not [censored]ing two hand touch. That was a perfectly legal tackle. If they want to turn this great game into a pussy-ass soccer match - eh nevermind, Ricky Stanzi threw yet another pick.

I agree about the sentiment that it was one of many horrible calls against Indiana in this ballgame, but there's no need to drag international football down in the process. If anything, there's too much contact allowed in international football. The games are already too low scoring....imagine if you could hold and knock down players more than you already can. In American football the ball is stuck to your body so it's difficult to jar the ball loose. In international football it's easy because it's not stuck to your body and controlling the ball with your feet is not an easy task. And have you ever tried to run while people were kicking at your feet and ankles? You can't - that's why it's even illegal in American football. There's nothing pussy about the amount of contact or so called lack there of in international football v. American football - it's just a necessity of a sport that you should have to play the ball and not the man.
