There were bad calls on both sides of the ball. Also at game speed it was probably impossible to know for sure whether his knee was down first.
Super coach Carrol could have called a timeout and plead his case but he didn't. Bad call on his part. Put a fork in it it's done.

I was rooting for a great game a I got it (however, being a former resident of Austin, TX, I'm glad they won).

Yep watched that one too. It was hard fought and it was a shame either team had to take the loss. Both teams left it all out on the field.
Nice turnaround season for Joe Pa.

Funny how a game, and calls, are viewed depending on which team you're pulling for. Since I"m totally impartial, here's how it went.
Yes, Vince's knee was down. It wasn't a bad call, just a no-call. The ref didn't see it and no one else did either until the instant replay. The USC guys up in the booth who have instant replay should have called down to Carroll and said "hey, you need to review this one". It didn't happen. Even if they had called him down, it was first and goal from there, correct?
Not sure what intercept Texas didn't get credit for. They gave them the one at the goal line and brought it out to the 20 yard line, like they should have. Good call all the way. I always see ***** that I think are caught, then fumbled, that the refs say are incomplete. Saw it again last night. Sure was a lot of passes completed on both sides.
Ya'll are right about one thing though. Great ballgame. Don't you love it when the trailing team has the ball one last time and a chance to win? USC sure needed that last timeout. They were almost in field goal range when it ended. I won a huge sum of money on Texas. Picked them with no points. What can I buy for my car with $5?
It must be great to pull for, or be an alumni of, a school that goes undefeated and wins it all. Chances are it will never happen for me. I'm a South Carolina Gamecock. . . . . forever!
