UW BYU Football Ending September 6, 2008

This is an uniterrupted view of the Jake Locker touchdown taken from the stands. Notice how late the flag is thrown. The ref looks like he flagged the chest bump and group hug instead of the football toss.

Swallow your whistle, pinhead. There was no competitive advantage gained from the "infraction" and no taunting. Clearly a no call situation, despite the rule book.

Cool video.

I don't think that was the end of the game, was it? Wasn't there, I don't know, a blocked PAT or something similar? I'm trying to remember...

:-)

GO COUGARS

Did anyone hear the update? The refs admitted they used a "judgement" call when they DIDN'T flag BYU for spiking the ball after its first touchdown in this game.

Oops. That thud you heard was the collective Cougar leg falling off -- no longer have one to stand on. Guess refs don't have to enforce all rules...just the ones they want.

At least UW and BYU have something in common - no BCS bowl for either this year.

Pac-10 refs for ya. Nobody worse in all the land.

I agree with Jim Rome- Good Call, Bad Rule.

This did NOT determine the game.....

[kboanddbo]

Good call, stupid rule. I was at this game. (Not a fan of either team) I was actually kinda shocked when they made the call, but it is a penalty.

[Despa1rFact0r]

he didnt spike the ball, he threw it 30 feet in the air. my team is wvu. after a big run, noel devine tossed the ball a couple feet above his head, caught it, and got the same call.

@666Raiderpride If you spike the ball at all, it is a penalty. Does not matter the team, or when it happened during the game.

[666Raiderpride]

@weathermanfsu so byu spiking the ball is different?

[666Raiderpride]

@byucougarsrock1 yea your right it only got them from tying it to losing it... get the fuck out of here with that!

[johnsns105]

MWC sucks....and I'm not a fan of any team from the PAC 1. How's that automatic bcs bid working out for you? Oh that's right the MWC doesn't have one because there garbage.

im a uw fan, but that didnt blow tha game. as far as im concerned, uw's FG unit couldnt block

[weathermanfsu]

Go read the rule book. Excessive celebrations include, tossing th eball high into the air, which he CLEARLY did!

Typical fan, that does not want the rules enforced as long as it benefits their team!

Instead of crying about it, how about smacking the player that scored for being an idiot and losing his head?
