This will be the third time that MSU influences how a college game is played
I expect the reviews are going to be much more rigid and would expect that you are going to hear "the ruling on the field stands." more often than we used to.
2001 Clockgate brought in an official time keeper.
2015 - "roughing the snapper" was called with more frequency after they didn't call it on MSU.
2021 - there will be particular emphasis from this point on to not "re-officiate" the play.
Notice this trend when you watch games in the future to see if I am right.
That's all, neg me if you want. One last lament before I am forced to move on with my life and try to let go of the result this weekend.

That's fine, but when the regulations clearly state that video evidence MUST be INDISPUTABLE, and it's not, the call on the field has to stand...which clearly didn't happen for yet again some bizarre reason.

Spartan stadium is a house of horrors- Other than a judgement spot i. columbus this shit only happens on a regular basis in East Lansing. All the great Mich v OSU games and rarely is officiating ever brought up

With all the complaints officials hear all the time, you'd think it might be in their and the NCAA's interest to have a site that posted clips and the pertinent rules applying to puzzling or controversial rulings. This would be a useful, educational service for players and coaches as well as fans and the media, and display more transparency and give them better PR, too.
We would all love to see that clip that shows incontrovertibly the QB was down before the strip-sack and TD occurred. Fox doesn't have it.
