Tx Mike,
I concur with your last statement. It would be a stronger sentiment if people within the establishment wanted the change.
I have scanned through the rules. I found them on NCAA.org and did see that the official properly applied the rule. If I read it correctly, the only time that he could should not restart the clock after a penalty is if the team is in a kicking formation. I could be mistaken on this but I think I read that exception.
This has been a great learning experience for me and provides me with additional source of information. And like is almost always the case, the officials had the call correct.
By the way, I predict that OU will meet Texas for the national title. I am truly hoping this happens.
