And the LSU players touched the ball first and to me already had possession with a knee down.

That's what I saw too. Our guy had both hands on the ball with a knee down before the Bama guy touched it. The rule is perfectly fine; refs just botched the call.

WORST CASE, the ruling on the field was LSU recovered. Video evidence was not sufficient enough to overturn the original call.
