3. Oklahoma State 31 @ Iowa State 37 2OT (2011)
Oklahoma State was 10-0 and ranked #2 in the BCS when they traveled to Ames to take on 5-4, 28-point underdog Iowa State. The morning of the game, a plane crash occurred that killed Oklahoma State women's basketball coaches Kurt Budke and Miranda Serna. Despite Oklahoma State holding a 24-7 lead in the third quarter, the Cowboys didn't seem as sharp as they had been all season, and the Cyclones came back. With the game tied at 24, Quinn Sharp attempted a 37-yard field goal that would've given Oklahoma State the lead with just over a minute remaining. It passed directly over the upright and was controversially ruled no good. The Cowboys lost in double overtime.


If the ball passed directly over the upright, how exactly was it "controversially ruled no good"?

What's controversial about that? What am I missing here?

I think the football can pass over the top of the goalpost if none of the ball passes outside the post.
