Ok so disclaimer im a Duck fan and Oregon deserved to lose and UCLA was the better team...

 But why did they make a big deal of announcing the ball  would be at the half yard line and then literally put it at the 2 for the conversion? That was bizzare. And then no one said anything more about it?

Was it because a 2 pt conversion is an all or nothing play? There is no “from the end of the run”?

The commentator ref also said it should be at the 1/2 yard line. Refs fucked it up and Oregon coaching staff didn’t say a damn thing about it.

Okay, this is beyond me rule wise so idk where it should have been spotted

But I'm pretty sure the Oregon coaching staff said some damn things about it. It was like four minutes between the two tries because the coaches kept going onto the field and talking to the refs presumably about the placement for the second try.
