Iow, a ball that obviously slips from a shooter's hand can be ruled a try if the official judged it as a being a try.
Gee, I hate to be all cranky and nit-picky, but methinks you're contradicting yourself now, Nevada.

Actually, I have been asked numerous times about the ending because Coach Fox was quite upset about the play and firmly believed that Spicer from Utah State traveled. I have stated every time that the officials got it right as there was a clear bump which caused the travel. Utah State won that one fair and square.
