Just watching the game for the first time tonight. On BYUs successful touchdown drive in the first quarter the BYU QB has a successful run on 3rd and 2. Then the ref with a "c" gives the QB a but slap as he runs back to the huddle. Just seems odd to me. I would think if a player gave a ref a butt slap they would probably be ejected. And just from an optics perspective it looks like that ref is rooting for BYU. Kinda like in that Nebraska vs OU game where the ref did a celebratory motion for Texas before calling a touchdown good. Thoughts?

Surprised there wasn’t a complaint filed from BYU. Can’t be having a man touch another man’s butt. That’s a sin.

I think I've seen that ref slapping other players butts too. 1

I only played sports in middle school, but always found the butt slap one of the weirdest things. It never bugged me or was offensive, it just made absolutely no sense why it ever became a thing.
