Western Michigan just got absolutely raped by the officials

What a screw job.
And Ann Arbor is still a whoore.

As another poster said on HROT, did we really just watch theft on live TV?
What an absolute load of ****. What in the GD fugg was that BS?!
You just knew the outcome after the refs gifted Michigan with an additional play.
If Michigan is in contention for the playoff at the end of the year (they could still get their **** together) does this turn into a factor?
Along with the Colorado 5th down in 1990 (which did enable the Buffs to win a national championship), worst call I've ever seen. There has to be an explanation for this, they have to say that their synch of the time was off from the TV coverage.

I have yet to read an explanation for why adding one second to the clock was the right call.
Anyone?
When the clock hits zero and the football is still in the air, the game is over, right?
Anyone?
The Final Drive on B1G Network is avoiding the issue like it never happened. No discussion about the decision. No statement from the conference or replay refs.
The "official" clock was not in synch with what was shown by NBC on the TV.
You know, like that's generally the explanation when sometimes it appears a team gets a second or two extra after the play clock hits zero.
Lol. Yes, I am aware of what the official explanation is likely to be, if one has been given.
I’m basing my cynicism off everything I have read on the ending. I was not watching.
The officials adjusted the clock to 9 seconds before the snap. There's no logical explanation for putting the additional second back on. What an absolute screwjob. I feel terrible for the Western Michigan kids.
They've stole elections. You don't think they will steal a CFB game?
I don't remember the rules guy's name that NBC has, but he said at the end of the game that he was told they were in sync, so the B1G is going to have a difficult time explaining this away.
Apparently the refs had a secret clock that didn’t hit zero.
We watched it live here and could not believe they put more time on it. The BIG needs to be held accountable now that they doubled down on their asinine BS excuse. That was a bigly mistake to rush that out and defend the indefensible
As someone who has always liked Michigan as my #2 big team I won’t support them ever again.
As someone who hates Michigan for existing I will continue to hate Michigan for existing
The Big Ten forced my 2nd favorite team to be Purdue and I stand by that decision.
Total screw job.
Doesn’t the statement contradict itself? If the clocks were synched before the game, then all the clocks should be the same.

Do you feel differently now that you've been given the official explanation and had time to painstakingly review the video footage?
If the clocks were synched before the game, the. Why were they not all the same?
Hey, dickhead. Hope you’re well.
I am out of the loop on politics right now. Is this going to pass?
Its not like Mich put the time back in the clock, they just took advantage. Hate the B1G.
Saban is a joke. Dude bailed when NIL evened the pay for play field. He could win when only a few teams were paying millions for players.
This. The blame lies with the officials and the B1G — not Michigan.
I detest Michigan and WMU certainly was robbed. That last play never should have occurred. But Michigan didn't have the ball inside the 5. WMU sh#t the bed and gave up a terrible Hail Mary TD, which is on them.
Hello friend. I hope you are having an enjoyable Labor Day Weekend and that your football team has a better day than the Clemson Tigers.
I have no idea if it would pass
Their story is that the cameras are synced with each other. So we’re seeing a camera on the play and a camera on the stadium clock? If that’s not the stadium clock in their video, where is that secret clock. And how could the stadium clock be out of sync with the broadcast clock since they had just reset the broadcast clock to 9 seconds… meaning a full nine seconds. The stadium clock or that secret clock would have had to read 10 seconds at the start of that play for them to be out of sync.
