The thing that I think tipped the Refs to calling that a penalty was they had just warned the Texas sideline to stand back and then a few plays later, that happened. Which brings a point I heard on Collin Cowherds program this AM. Why does any team need that many coaches and/or football staff on the sidelines? Good gosh it looked like the number of non unifomed people outnumbered the uniformed.
Excellent point.
You are right about the Longhorns. They did appear to have a lot of support staff (coaches, waterboys, etc) on the field.
