The stupidity of the Wisconsin QB in trying to center the ball does not relieve these officials from officiating the play correctly.
They made mistake(s) in a chaotic situation. I also don't think it warrants firing them.

Not (1) - he clearly (in one angle at least, and that angle most closely mirrors R's angle) took a knee. But definitely (2) and (3), and I agree with you that player stupidity doesn't make it OK that the officials booted this one.
