Look. No one from OSU is arguing that the call had anything to do with the outcome of the game.

Yet a couple of questions beg to be asked.

How could officials at the highest level of college football blow such an
obvious call?

But more important, if instant replay is supposed to make sure the calls are correct how did it fail to do so in this case? (and scores of others over the last few years)

If instant replay is not one hundred per cent fool proof why have it at all?
