Here is the hit on Martinez. Clearly, his head is in front of the runner.

Nice flash from your camera on the TV. Not exactly an official review. This clearly isn't the moment of impact, so why don't you let those of us with access to civilized technology and, most importantly, knowledge of football, make the decision.

Post your picture then, genius. His shoulder pad is literally touching Martinez's leg. What more do you want?

Why was that play not reviewed on the Gabbert sack? It was clearly a fumble!

 

I'm still in shock over that. Blatant fumble. Cunningham, unbelievably, starts in again with his "this is what we're trying to remove from the game" horsesh&*, meanwhile, we score a defensive touchdown. A flat out defensive touchdown. No review. (Of course we could only have gained possesion through a review and not the 6 points that we had, in fact, earned, but possession nonetheless.)

 

And no mention of fumble by either broadcaster.

 

Un....real. Oh well. They still couldn't take it from us, could they? GBR!!!!!!

 

The broadcasters mentioned that it looked like fumble and it was not reviewed b/c the play was blown dead on the field. You cannot call a fumble on a review just like you can't call a face-mask.

 

How is a play blown dead before or during a QB sack????

 

It was blown dead (maybe "dead" is not the right word, it was whistled that the play was over) after the sack. They didn't call the fumble on the field so you can't call it on review.

 

Yea after the sack the play is over, but the fumble came while he was still going down.

There is no explanation that is valid to uphold your opinion or the Texass football conference referees or both officials. That was a fumble. But it doesn't really matter now

The point is that it was NOT CALLED ON THE FIELD. Yes, it was technically a fumble, but the officials didn't call it, therefore it can not be called on review.

Yes, it can be reviewed. You follow the immediate action after the fumble to see who recovered it. Nebraska should have been given the ball at the spot where they recovered the fumble.

 

For proof that they can review a fumble even though the play was blown dead, see earlier in the game, when they reviewed Gabbert's apparent fumble down at the 1 yard line. They saw that his knee was down before the ball came loose, and therefore it was irrelevant. But they were reviewing the apparent fumble, even though he had been called down on the field, because in the immediate action following the apparent fumble, Nebraska had recovered it in the endzone.

 

It IS a reviewable play.

Thank you I was getting ready to say that. It happened in an NFL game a week or 2 ago also, and Gabbert's play in the north endzone was a perfect example.

Can anyone advise where to send complaints about Cunningham's commentary? Dude needs to give it a rest, honestly. Given that college football's target audience is predominantly male and predominately young males, ESPN/ABC can't be pleased with Cunningham having himself a good cry in the booth every time someone makes a good hit.

 

For crying out loud. Cunningham, the ladies on The View called; they said to stop being such a sissy.

Don't say "target audience"...he'll want a flag thrown due to "targeting". What a D-Bag! Cunningham that is.

Lol at the targeting posts^

Really? You can tell where his shoulder pad is from that picture? I find that odd as the picture is from the other side of the hit and if you took it a split-second later, you'd probably see the helmet come into contact with the leg, which would be a visible point of contact as it would not be hidden behind Martinez's thigh.
