A One Point Safety???

I never would have thought I'd see it...
In case you missed the Fiesta Bowl last night - link

... oh and Ron Cherry and crew actually made the right call!

More surprising to me was that the officials actually knew the applicable but arcane rule.

Ha, that is awesome. I didn't know that existed.

The FG challenge during our game was also a weird occurrence. I wonder if that was the first ever FG challenge?

I still do not understand how a ref with vision over 20/300 could have missed that.

That was probably the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Next to that one NFL ref who heard Jerome Bettis say "Tails" when the rest of the world heard "Heads." How people don't get fired for that idiocy is beyond me....

No worse than an official standing right under the upright and still blowing a FG call

Well, at least he had the good taste to hesitate before throwing up his hands. Or was he throwing up his arms at the whole thing?

On TV, they showed the camera angle from under the upright. For some reason, the upright was painted white, and it was quite overcast. I could see how the two might blend together.
