It is the second USC Foul that warrants and ejection. (Those involve no contact)

QB throws and interception. After the pass the defensive end roughs the QB.

PF - Roughing.

Next Series the same thing happens. Another personal foul, roughing.

Similar situation but instead of roughing the QB the DE taunts the QB.

After USC foul number 2, taunting, the DE is DQ'd.

I'm just saying...

What you described makes sense. You do not get DQ'd on the second personal foul (unless flagrant single act of course).

Way to blow my legitimate question out of the water guys.

As to the 4th down play and the coaches on the field, yes, some OSU coaches were 2 yards onto the field, but after watching the replay, on the wide angle, the same number of Texas coaches are out onto the field, too. So, no dice there.

Again, great game to watch. Great job by my cuz. But i'd still like an explanation on the USC, should've been 2 instead of 1. And more than likely it didn't matter anyway, but you never know.

And to JRut, I hope I never cross paths with you. The way you try to bully people around on the boards says VOLUMES about you. I know exactly what type of ref you'd be.

And as far as OSU not finishing games off, you couldn't be further from the truth. They've had problems showing up in the past couple bowl games, not finishing them off. Usually when they're in tight games, they put it away. Just ask the '02 Canes in the same Fiesta Bowl.

And to Colt McCoy, way to eke out a victory over a big underdog, while the two 2 teams that pounded OSU have already played in the Rose Bowl. Enjoy your runner-up title, heck, Utah should be deserving of a share of a title, not you guys.

I was yelling "STICK HIM!" at the TV when this was happening. I wasn't expecting him to of course but you never know.

I thought for sure he, or his assistants, were gonna cost them 15 yards.

Hey DZ...do you know what exactly they were complaining about? It looked like the initial spot by the LJ was about a half yard short of the LTG. I thought he reached the LTG so my initial reaction was bad spot. When the camera came back to the ball though, it was marked where I thought it should be marked. I assumed Tressel's reaction was due to someone changing the initial spot made by the LJ even though I thought it was the correct spot. I could understand why he was upset if he thought he was getting jobbed but a changed spot but in the end, the officials got the right spot.

That's exactly what I think happened. The spot was changed (rightfully so) and Tressel nearly flew off the handle when it did. My guess is that the LJ wasn't perpindicular to the play because it was coming right at him and he didn't want to get clobbered. He was probably given help by the HL or U on the spot. Again, great spot.

I wasn't worried about Tressel being flagged for being on the field, but rather what words might come out of his mouth.
