re: Should NCAA grant Oklahoma State the victory?

Did Oklahoma State win on the field Saturday?

No. You don't reverse that.

What you do is change the rule that gives Oklahoma State any argument here because it's a poorly written rule - the rule didn't account for turnover on downs.

What about a judgement call that should have been overturned by today but a camera angle comes out later, a la 4th and goal from the one with one second left.

Do you review it with the new angle?

I probably wouldn't be for that.

But I see a bright line with timing issues and procedural issues (knowing the downs) on last plays.

Maybe it sounds arbitrary but camera angles and goal line situations and catches need to be decided on the field.

But extra downs and mis-management of the clock or granting special extra down to a team on the last play because refs don't know the rules...that's fruit of the poisonous tree. Our rule of law excludes it, why can't a football field?
