Careful. I tried to say the same thing in another thread. Most aren't willing to accept it.
I don't blame Bundrage for that drop. That defender was on him like a backpack and the ref decided not to throw his flag.

Are you talking about the Ryen catch? I think the refs got it right, but was it absolutely inconclusive? I don't know. If you're talking about Bundrage's drop... well, drops are what will keep him from playing on Sundays.
Yeah. So, if OP is talking about the Bundrage drop he will also be disappointed. The one thing that the refs got wrong that sticks out in my mind is spot on that 2nd-and-long in the last series.
Ryen - even with the 1995-era quality from firstrow, it showed his arm partially under the ball but the rest of the ball clearly on the ground and trapped between his body and the ground, and the movement of the ball. Good effort and nice sell by Ryen, but I think it was the right call. Just because the ESPN announcers didn't see it until a quarter of game time later, doesn't mean the review booth didn't see it right away.
Bundrage - dude had alligator arms on that one. Great throw by Lanning that was there for the taking.

I can't imagine your snarky comment landing at all, though, given they got it right. Why even bother.
What's not being mentioned is Ryen should have caught that ball. All the focus on the review, but that was an easy catch. Alligator arms is when you are scared of a hit. He short armed because of misjudge, possibly due to the coverage. Replay showed it was tougher than I originally thought. Amazing throw.
As a ref apologist, I think the call should have stood. If they called it incomplete originally I think the same thing - call stands. Nothing conclusive about either call.
And Brundage alligator armed that end zone pass.
That's like asking what's the point of going to a football game if your team is probably not going to win?
A: Because they might, it could be fun, you personally find it enjoyable.
I can't say anything more than its not directly confronting the Big 12. I'm not a huge fan of someone taking my ideas and posting them as their own... Unless its a retweet.
