Oklahoma State HC Mike Gundy indicated that he wants Big 12 officials to oversee non-conference games at Boone Pickett Stadium.
“You obviously can’t get into going back and changing officials’ calls during the game”. The best ones will be at [the Power 5] level. Oklahoma State was flagged for intentional grounding, but as that penalty comes with a loss of down, the contest should have ended at that point.
A quarter can not end on an accepted foul such as holding or pass interference that does require a replay of a down. “Thus the quarter should not have been extended”.

“In our program, we talk all the time about controlling the things we can control and not getting caught up in the things we can’t control”.
Many of them had other offers to choose from, and picked the Chippewas because of a variety of reasons, but a common thread has been the confidence that head coach John Bonamego has CMU headed in the right direction. Ohio State, 4. Michigan, 5.
