Message: [QUOTE="UCan3, post: 4741290, member: 11446"] Yes, we lost game for all kinds of reasons that had nothing to do with calls but since that topic has been well covered - I raise this one… [B]In the history of fumbles,[/B] there has never been an easier call to make than when Jackson Mitchell forced that fumble in the first half when we still had a chance in this game. Ball pops out and we run for an easy TD… End of story… right.. Well, no… Down by Contact? Really? What contact, the GS player having ball hit out of hands? He was nowhere near being down - not by a mile… Announcers got awful quiet before it took call from above to have the refs review on tape… Interesting they let a play go next series or two where it was clear that Fagnano lost ball due to contact on ground. Suddenly announcers were deep into analyzing whether there were sufficient camera angles to justify overturning the call, LOL. While not a a word about the atrocious call on Jackson Mitchell play.. Bad calls get made live with it. I get it. But if you showed this clip to 1000 people my guess not one would claim that the player was down by contact w/ ground. Life as an Independent is getting old. [/QUOTE]
