Is this simply not an important detail officiating college games?
I think it was a combination of trying to decide what was more important (the attempt signal or the foul signal) and the fact that the whistling trail probably regretted it the instant he blew it. Brain kind of went into shutdown for a couple of seconds when he should have at least been vigorously closing down and selling the call.

Not his finest moment. I'll bet his next game is his best all season.
