Orange Bowl review
 
UVA's final drive.

"Touchdown" on a throwback to the offensive tackle.
No flags on the play but after review a (deserved) penalty for an ineligible receiver.

I was surprised that the review official could call a penalty on something other than targeting. Are there other instances where the review official initiates a call? (i.e. on a scoring play could he call holding on a lineman?)

Thanks

It's possible the ruling on the field is it was legal because it was backward and replay determined it was forward. Forward/backward is reviewable.
