Referees missed a huge call early in TCU’s game Saturday night against Ohio State and it benefited the Buckeyes big time.
The Buckeyes forced a fumble into the Horned Frogs’ end zone but before recovering the ball, it was touched by an OSU player whose foot was out of bounds. The play should have been blown dead at that point and the Buckeyes awarded a safety.
Instead, officials never consulted a replay and the touchdown stood. Ohio State defensive end Nick Bosa made the strip-sack on Shawn Robinson. The ball was recovered by Davon Hamilton. Defensive end Dre’Mont Jones is the player who made contact with the ball while he was out of bounds.
