Former OSU QB Zac Robinson isn’t buying the call.
You work on that play every Thursday late in practice just for that situation. Executed correctly, refs got it wrong.

Fox Sports officiating analyst Mike Pereira isn’t convinced the refs got it right.
Rule 3-2-3. “The period is not extended if the foul is by the team and possession and the penalty includes loss of down.” Oops.
