Close your eyes, and go back to an October day in 2015.
Minnesota is at OSU, and is tied at zero midway through the 2nd quarter. The forever mercurial Mitch L. passes from his end zone, pass is picked for an OSU TD. Except that TWO flags fly for targeting.
After a long delay, and the play going to BIG headquarters in Chicago for review, its determined that the two refs erred, and Mitch's chin that required stitches is a mirage.
Now imagine that it had been OSU passing from its own end zone and Minnesota having the pick 6... Think the targeting call would have been reversed? Not with $ millions at stake for the conference in National Championship possibilities for OSU.
I can't stand the Michigan coach, but they got jobbed on the 4th down review at OSU.
Think Penn St. has a beef? They beat OSU, win the BIG, and OSU gets to play [ with an identical record as PSU ] for the Natty.
Who do you think runs the BIG. sports fans?
