That is close. Looks like he timed it perfectly to me but either way it was so close the ref should not have called it imo.
Ain't nothing to it but to do it!

sooners: We see football with almost the same pair of eyes (not meant as an insult lol... I have lousy eyesight).

The important thing is that THAT is not the time for a call so "close" we still can't figure it out 2 days later.

Yeah, officials are human and make mistakes, but the "close" calls seem to go against certain teams and players often enough to cause me to wonder whether they are just random errors.

If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

That was my point through all this. Too close to call in a critical situation. If I had my druthers, all penalties would be reviewed in the last two minutes of every game and in overtime. That would keep the flags in their pockets except for obvious fouls.
