Fire the Refs!

It's as simple as that. Bob Stoops should try to get the Pac-10 officiating crew (especially the ones in the booth) fired. With just over a minute left and the Oregon Ducks trailing by 6, they did an onsides kick. OU WR Malcolm Kelly moved just inside the 45 yard line, the marker where the ball had to pass before an Oregon player could legally touch the ball. Kelly was less than 10 yards from the 35. Kelly wasn't the first player to touch the ball. An Oregon Duck hit the ball and redirected it, so Kelly couldn't catch it. Thus, obviously, the Oregon player touched the ball before it travelled 10 yards. So, there should have been a penalty for an illegal touch and it should have been OU ball at the 44, where the ball was illegally touched. The analysts and everyone watching the game could see that the play should be overturned. They reviewed the play upstairs. How the hell did they not overturn it? I still can't fathom that. To add insult to injury, they screwed up a pass interference and review. OU DE C.J. Ah You tipped a Dennis Dixon pass. Therefore, any contact made by an OU defender on the UO receiver is okay. Unfortunately, the fact that the ball was wobbling like a Duck after it hit Ah You's hand wasn't "indisputable video evidence" to overturn the call, which should have been an incomplete pass anyway ... the play on the ball by the defender didn't warrant pass interference. The refs blew the game. They weren't the only reason OU lost, but they were the reason UO won and it's very unfortunate.
