I'm still amazed that Wisconsin isn't getting more heat...the refs didnt handle the situation perfectly, but Wisconsin totally botched that sequence...why weren't they more in a hurry to line up and spike the ball??? Even if the ref would have spotted it sooner, Wisconsin was just lost and seemingly unaware that the clock was running....zero sense of urgency to get lined up for a spike.

IMO, Wisconsin has no one to blame but themselves.

And lets not forget that the only reason it came down to that was Wisconsin's decision to run that play with no timeouts and k owing full well the clock would be running.

They were completely aware it was running that's why they were complaining to the head ref about ASU wasting time and it taking so long to spot the ball.

Maybe they shouldn't have been arguing but it wouldn't have changed a thing. To think differently would be to believe the umpire was just taking his time because Wisconsin wasn't ready anyway, and that he would have somehow hurried the process along. They weren't "set" for a snap but they were at the line waiting for the ball to be placed so they could get set.
