Miami-Duke - Insane

[ckhokie]

No the play stands because no penalty was committed, the kids deserving it is just karma.

I mean I clearly don't have a dog in this fight, but there are multiple views of the Miami runner's knee down, and a clear image of a block in the back (which was called and then illegally reviewed), so....

So, let me get this straight...

They threw a flag for a block in the back, reviewed the play to see if the player was down or if the laterals were forward, and then after the review announced that a) the player wasn't down and b) the laterals were all laterals and c) the officials got together and determined it was a legal block?

And...I'm just supposed to believe that the decision to change that had nothing to do with the review? They changed that call and determined it was from the side after the review. Shouldn't those decisions be made before reviews?

Yeah Duke got fucked like a champ. Clearly the review was why it was overturned

That play was 100% clean and 100% awesome. Those kids deserved that win after the week they had.

It wasn't clean. The guy's knee was down plus several blocks in the back.

9 minute review...what were they doing for NINE minutes? They didn't even get the call right.

 

[podsox]

did duke file a protest? if so, is there any possibility that this is the first game ever overturned

Plus that player running on the field with his helmet off. What a dumbass! I hope his coach let him have it.

The PAC 12 just made a trade offer for them.

Dead ball penalty. It doesn't effect the game.

meaning the play is dead the moment the players enters the field

No. You just linked to Pereira's twitter. That is a penalty but would've had no bearing on the game.

so while a play is going on why not throw a quick pass to the sideline and have 5 guys from the sideline run out and block

That's not what happened...

u cant have 12 players on the field at any point. Pereira is wrong if he thinks the td would have stood if they threw the flag

They didn't participate. They ran on the field behind the play to celebrate. You can argue with Pereira all you want, but I think everyone here would take his word of yours or mine.

 

[craigk217]

the best. Now when the ESPYS happen, Mich vs MSU won't get the win for best ending or whatever dumb award they come up with. LOL at MSU for being 2nd best again.

I think we get it ... now.

he was already wrong on the play tonight. he originally said that the block in the back was reviewable when it was originally announced. he then deleted his tweets and switched his entire story
