The fumble no call should have been challenged by Ms State. I don’t know if the second call could have been challenged. That flag should have been picked up after consultation with the other ref in the area of the block in the back. The one who called that may have thought he saw a block in the back. There was another ref on the other side who should have seen that it wasn’t even close. That also was a touchdown. Just bad bad officiating.
I’ve seen worse. This is one of the worst calls I’ve sen this year:
I’m a Michigan alumnus though and I remember one incredibly bad call in the Rose Bowl before they had play review. Charles White fumbled the ball at about the 5 yard line but kept running into the end zone. A touch down was declared even though Michigan recovered the fumble at about the three yard line and the ball never crossed the goal line. Makes you tear your hair out.
