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.

Not true. NO/GB fumble could not be reviewed b/c GB was out of reviews....if it had been in the last 5 mins of the game the booth could have called for a review.
clear recovery of a fumble can result in a change in posession regardless of whistle blown by ref (in NFL). Believe it is the same in college.

Read my post. Clear recovery. The Sproles fumble resulted in a pile up. This one there was only 1 Tiger in the frame and he was on the ground.

There's a difference in whether the whistle was blown because they thought the guy was down, or whether it was blown because his forward progress was stopped. If they blow it for forward progress, it is not reviewable.

You are 100% wrong.
