I wonder if Lawrence has ran this much all season.
Highs of 11 rushes and 66 yards (different games).

I can't imagine having an ankle injury on a field with such poor footing.

Watching it live I did too.  In slow mo he definitely appeared to have possession to me.  He got hit immediately and didn’t have time to turn it up field but he had it secured in both hands and took 3 steps as he was being driven back.  Looked like a catch and fumble to me.
Replay was intended to make calls more accurate, but lately it seems replay is becoming more and more inaccurate. Those people need to be reviewed with the rest of the officiating crew, and more closely reviewed, because they have more time for consideration, and could actually consult the rule book.

I'm really tired of folks saying, "Well, it looks different under replay, than it does in real time."

Well, no shit.  That's the entire point of replay.  In real time, we can't see everything that happens.  Refs can be out of position, refs can think they see something that isn't actually there.  Replay shows us the things we don't see, or can't see, in real time.  If that's not the purpose of replay, then what IS the purpose of replay?  If we're not going to use it to see the things we missed in real time, then why have it at all?  Get rid of it.  It just slows down the game and turns it into a beating.

I did, but not carefully. I was most interested in the bottom line.

Yeah, didn't get Dabo declining the delay.  Once he did that, I would've gone for it.

This season I saw at least two results in Iowa games in which the replay official was obviously incorrect, and one was last night in the USC game. And the narrators on Fox Sports agreed with me. It's perplexing.

Way too easy.  Almost wonder if they scored too quickly.
