Reversal Of The Reversal
The decision to overturn an original replay review decision that gave Oregon a touchdown and caused a 15-minute delay continued to irk USC coach Pete Carroll on Sunday night.
``To reverse a call, you have to have conclusive evidence,'' Carroll said. ``There is nothing on film to reverse that call. Mike Bellotti did a fine job exercising the opportunity allowed him. He was competing. I'm anxious to talk to (supervisor of officials) Verle Sorgen tomorrow. The official could have ended it by saying we already looked into it.''
What's worse is that the second reversal was wrong. An Oregon player went out of bounds, came in, and tipped the ball first--then the USC player tipped it back to Stewart. Pete should have challenged the second reversal.
I'm just curious if this was the correct call regarding to the part where once its tipped the receiver can come back in bounds?
either way, Belottie got it overturned so kudos to him for doing that
What is just me or did the UO receiver step on the back white line on the way down from his catch anyway??? so despite the reversal of the reversal , tipped by them vs us, blah blah blah....seems to me that the catch was caught out of bounds anyway (whether he came back in to get it or not), he appeared to have landed with the ball with his heel on the back line of the end zone......did anyone else see that????
any how, that TD just made the game look less of a blowout as it really was ......
Fight On !! beat the Peoples Republic of Beserkly
