They can overturn a fumble on review if it is obvious who recovers it even with a blown whistle.

Is something different in college than NFL, because in the NFL this isn't true.

Happened in the Saints game last week against the Packers in the 4th quarter. Clearly a fumble but it couldn't be reviewed, not only because McCarthy was out of timeouts but it couldn't be reviewed because the play was blown dead. If a whistle is blown signaling that the play is dead, the play can't be reviewed (at least in the NFL).

ETA for anyone thinking that I think LSu should have retained possession. No. I am talking rules here, not complaining that it was a bad call because it most certainly was a fumble.

So you should give 100% until the whistle is blown*


* Unless the ball is fumbled, then you still should go 100%
