"Okay guys, Bill here. What we have on the field is the game is over."
"Hey Bill, two views we want you to see. One is that Michigan is losing. Actually there is no second angle."
Looks like a video conference call, and the feed those officials were seeing had a different clock than what the stadium had. On their clock, there was 1 second. Why is there this secret clock? And it's 2026, can we have one synchronized master clock? I guess that technology is out of reach. Maybe the moon landing was faked after all...
after they file suit.
It was the last play. There's no speculation that Michigan could have scored without time on the clock and Western Michigan was leading.
moneyline bet for WMU to win?
The George Brett pine tar game is a memorable one that comes to mind. I vaguely recall a regular season Lakers game in the mid 1980s that was similarly appealed, resulting in a final score being unwound.
That said, those games were appealed based on a misapplication of the rules, whereas this one seems to fall in the category of "don't believe your lying eyes" judgment.
