Texas Fumbles on Fourth Down?

Fast forward to about the 1:15 mark.

As the player is being brought down, the ball hits his knee and fumbles out of bounds...

Not that there is anything we can do about it. Just some more salt in an open wound....

I agree Orestes... I really think that the game could have been officiated a lot better than it actually was. Oh well, maybe better luck next time for the Buckeyes!

The video has moved. Now just go to SPORTS and then NCAA FOOTBALL. Then the Fiesta Bowl highlights are available on the screen.

Orestes, I posted the same thing, did not see your post. It was clearly a fumble short of the first down. Apparently everyone missed it including the replay. I have also watched the Texas touchdown again and cannot believe it. One other time during the last drive Texas had attempted a slant to the other side that was batted down by a lineman and almost intercepted. This would have went for plenty also if not for the lineman. We repeat the same defense a few plays later and get burnt to the other side.

I haven't been on in awhile, but thank you Orestes for putting this up. I can remember plain as day watching the game and seeing that and saying he didn't get the first!! But, the officals and the replay booth missed that fumble. The past is in the past, but it still makes me a little mad that they missed it.
