It looks to me that right there and then, a NCAA championship official didn't call a traveling and gave Michigan an "unfair advantage".

How come the officials didn't get any crap for not calling the travel violation?
The officials actually took a ton of a crap for missing that traveling call. That was, plain and simple, a blown call. However, it wasn't a deliberately blown call. Failing to honor a legitimate TO request is deliberately blowing the call. That's one heckuva big difference.

Apples and oranges.
