Oh, cut him some slack guys. That was a heartbreaker. They had a ton of huge calls go against them and he didn't see them four times from every angle, he saw them once on whatever hot take was on the jumbotron. The fumble that wasn't still has me scratching my head how that qualified as indisputable video evidence for us.

The fumble was overturned because of the sole reason of trying to tuck the ball. A lot of times Tee and Justyn will hand catch a ball and leave their arms extended with the ball away from their body on contested sideline catches. Justyn did that later in the game for reference. But on this catch the ball was caught away from the body then Justyn made a move to pull the ball to his body and tuck it. During the process of tucking is when Okudah jarred it out. Since it happened during the tuck process it was still in thy e process of making the catch. Had Justyn left his arms extended without the tuck it would have been accurately called a fumble. But since he made the tuck effort and it got knocked out it extended the act of making the catch. Justyn was like 98% through the catch when it came out, but lucky for us 98% is not 100% and it got overturned.

That’s my take on the play but I needed the super slow motion of the review to be able to see that. Live full speed it was way too fast. But that’s also why the refs are supposed to let it play out first and let review fix plays like that.

If you don’t want to be pulled over for speeding, don’t drive 20 mph over the speed limit. If you don’t want to get a ticket for running a red light, don’t run red lights.

If you don’t want to get called targeting, teach your blitzing DB’s and linebackers to wrap up the QB for a guaranteed tackle and sack. If your players launch themselves full speed with their head down intent on making helmet to helmet contact to “lay the wood” and hurt an opposing player, they will get called for targeting every time. Your team will be penalized 15 yards and your player will be ejected. I believe the memo on this subject went out several years ago.

Don’t whine about whether the officials rule against you on a “catch or no catch”. They looked at it for five minutes from every angle and told you it was not a catch. Move on to the next play.

Why not talk about not being able to score touchdowns in the red zone. Especially when you have all the momentum. Why not talk about finishing the game on the bad end of a 29 to 7 run. Why not talk about your disappointment in your defense not being able to make a stop at the end of the game with Clemson penned at their own 6 yard line.
