Anyone who reads much of what I post will hopefully know that I try very hard to support the game officials. If I was rooting for one team, it was Colorado.
First, I will say that overall, I thought the game was well officiated.
In the play in question, it sure seemed like a home town clock operator was controlling the clock. Pass was caught and the receiver was down at 4 seconds. ECO let clock run down to 2 seconds. (I couldn't see the covering officials, but certainly they were trying to kill the clock). Officials had a difficult time getting the ball placed after the down.
Neb. runs to the line gets set, RFP is blown, Neb. spikes the ball with one second left (no doubt in my mind) --whistles are clearly blowing. ECO lets game clock expire. Crew conferences for a moment and R holds ball over head.
