One of the worst calls I have ever seen
The guy did not touch the football to let a terrible call like this possibly determine the outcome of this game is an absolute joke. Shame on these officials for reversing what happened on the field. There is no way ASU should get the ball back. That was one of the worst calls I have ever seen in any sport
Man what a joke... 21-7, what a huge momentum swing
I would love if AZ wins now and this guy becomes worse than Bartman...
was that momentum changer? ------- stay off the field if aint playin i guess
Must be those refs from that Oklahoma/Oregon game last season.

Even if he did not touch the ball there should have been a penalty for all the extra players and coaches on the field. I count 4 coaches and 2 players.Originally Posted by 5 star bomb

The idiot should not have been standing there in the first place nor should he have even tried to pick the ball up while it's clearly in bounds.
I don't even have a bet, but screw 'em. Retarded team already got a sideline warning penalty in the 1st quarter and then the entire coaching staff is on the field during a live ball. ****' em - morons.
Exactly. Whether he touched the ball or not, the UT coaches on the field while the ball was still live is enough, by rule, to warrant an unsportsmanlike penalty.

Figure to have good field position now after that big stop, cmon ASU capitalize off this momentum swing and make it a one score game!!
let the players decide the outcome of the game not a no name guy on the sideline who didnt even touch the ball anyway... what a joke
If he had actually stayed on the sideline, you might have a point.
It doesnt matter ASU sucks anyway, Texas came right back and responded with another td

Not nearly as bad as the call in the Utah/Navy game, -- the fumble that hit the pylon. That was DEFINITIVE.
Whether or not the Texas guy touched it is up for debate, but even if he didn't, it still should have been a penalty.
He did not touch the ball. Officiating all this year has been HORRIBLE.

No, he didn't touch the ball unless it was for a split second while his hand was moving away from it.
That being said - it was still a penalty for being on the field.
Not as bad as the blatant goaltend by KG that sparked a 5-0 Boston run instead of giving Seattle a 39-37 lead.

I think last Sunday the Tennessee basketball coach accidentally stepped on the sideline and they gave him a technical. He wasn't even talking to the refs.
ive never seen one team get more fluke plays than texas. the horns are better....but fumbles on fair catches, fumbles for tds, deflected pics, all kinds of shit thats not the 'norm'.
so 5 star, suck my ass.
that was bad.
Made me think of a T on Tom Penders a couple seasons ago. Basically, he collapsed on the sideline because of some health issue, and the officials upheld the T even after he was carried off on a stretcher.

Funny that the kid that touched the ball was mack brown's step son.... Go Figure...
I wonder how this is a "bad" call. Obv not perfectly correct, but def isn't blatant. Guy who shouldn't be on the field is and puts his hands out to grab the ball... He comes within fractions of an inch of touching it... and the refs think he did.
This def isn't a very cut and dry call.
maybe he thinks it was a bad call because it was incorrect? i'll wait for 5 star to chime in and confirm or deny these allegations.
Yeah, the call wasn't that Brown's step son was on the field. The call was that he touched the ball while it was still in play.
I watched every angle they showed and there is no way in hell you can overturn that call if the standard is indisputable video evidence. It just wasn't there. Maybe he touched the ball. Maybe he didn't. But it darn sure wasn't conclusive either way. If it's not conclusive, the call on the field stands, right?
Now, I'm not usually a conspiracy theorist, but you have to wonder if it wasn't one of those made for TV calls to keep the game close and keep people tuned it. Of course, incompetent officials would also a reasonable explanation.

It is simple the call on the field after replay was that he touched the ball when there is no way you can tell on replay if he touched the ball. I think most everyone here would agree that he didnt touch the ball. You cant overturn that call it was total B.S. I agree 100% that the players/coaches shouldnt have been on the field but the refs didnt even throw a flag for that while it happened so the refs totally missed that and then you overturn a call where you cant tell at all if the id touched the ball or not? I just hate when stupid calls are made like that and they have a part in determining the outcome of the final score rather than the players on the field. Whats lost in this is the texas player who dove to keep the ball in play made a great play to keep the ball alive but its all called back bc of a coach who didnt even clearly touch the ball or not??? Bad call bottom line, but who cares now Texas won so its all good!
By taking a UT coach and getting him to run onto the field and reach out of the ball with two hands on a freak play?
On a scale of 1-100 this is an error of 3.3 while the hitting the pylon fumble would be 100.
Definitely one of those plays they will talk about for years. The interpretation may have been wrong, but no way that idiot in orange should've been on the field. Not to mention Mack Brown's excuse about the ballboy trying to "keep it from hitting him." Pretty weak attempt at an excuse.

excuses are weak by nature.
My problem is why did it get overturned? There was no way that was enough evidence to overtuen that play. The kid didnt touch the ball but it gets overturneed? I understand he shouldnt be on the field there is no excuse for that, but that should be a flag thrown on the play. To me I see it as a kid on Texas making a great play diving to keep the ball in bounds there is no clear evidence whatsoever that the ball touched the coach's hand yet it gets reversed?
And my problem is why the fudge is a ballboy/trainer/assistant coach [pick one] on the blasted field to even begin with? I can give you a reason why it was overturned. Can you explain what that idiot was on the field, I mean, besides 'he was trying not to let the ball hit him'?
