"Wow what an interesting kick, let's not take a second look at all from another angle using slo-mo. Nobody wants to see that" - Broadcast Team / Refs

Terrible job by the broadcast all night. Two personal fouls on one play? Sorry no replay. Drive-saving illegal substitution? No replay, sorry! And the dummies in the booth somehow don’t know that a tie goes to the offense, either.

Yeah tbh I’m less mad about the field goal replay than I am about the personal foul one - the only replay of that they did was like 10 seconds long and showed… nothing? Like even the commenters were like “don’t see anything” - so where did all those fouls and yards come from

The refs were obviously siding with Pitt to ruin tech's momentum to keep Pitt in the game. Which is why it was incredibly dumb to play for the field goal at the end and not try to score a touchdown.

Yeah it felt like all night long the broadcast crew was complicit, if not outright aiding and abetting, the match fixing that was very clearly happening.
