Not that it would have saved this game, but that RTP and then the no-catch calls were football crimes.

The roughing-the-passer was horseshit but I didn't have any issue with them ruling the Purdue receiver didn't survive the ground, because he didn't.

Yeah, if people have an issue with the rule itself then that’s fine. But by rule, because he was falling to the ground while catching the ball, then he has to control the ball through the ground, even if his feet touch the ground 3 times. I really wasn’t expecting to see the reaction to that call being so lopsided in the other direction tbh lmao
