Question split crew?

Why was this a split crew? Beginning in 2000, the NCAA changed its rule (1-1-4-b) so that "Officiating crews will be assigned from the same officiating organization."

The purpose of this was to keep the crew continuity and avoid the "half the crew take care of our conference, and the other half of the crew take care of our conference."
