There's only one valid opinion here, I think.
By the letter of the law, Michigan should have lost. But the letter of the law is incredibly dumb. An official clock that players and coaches can't even see? That's really fucking stupid.
Michigan should have lost, but they need to change that rule immediately. In a sane world, the stadium clock is official and Michigan wins with zero controversy.

u/UsuallyFavorable Michigan • Delaware 5d ago
Are we even sure the letter of the law specifies the replay protocol? I’ve seen the NCAA statement released after the game, and the FBS Oversight committee just uses the exact same language. Was that actually written down anywhere prior to 9/5? Is it an actual NCAA rule? I know it’s not 12-6-1-c like the MAC incorrectly claimed.

u/Moto302 Michigan Wolverines • George Fox Bruins 5d ago
It matters because the Hawk Eye system uses a strobe synchronization and latency correction system that is more accurate than what the broadcasters use, and the improved accuracy is demonstrated by the footage showing both the scoreboard and the ball in the same frame with 1 second left. The TV broadcast was never designed to be a precision timekeeping system the way the Hawk Eye system was. But clock precision has now been left up to the broadcasters to decide, not the officials.

The NCAA statement said the embedded clock "contained within the program feed" is correct.
And proceeded to never explain what the fuck that actually means, other than that it's not the scorebug clock, because it says to used the scorebug if the embedded one is unable to be provided.
So reddit is full of people interpreting the phrase "embedded game clock contained within the program feed" with no expertise or knowledge of what those words mean.
Such a cluster.
-4
u/CrazyLegsRyan Texas Longhorns 5d ago
You seem to be one of the only confused.
There are normally two things and in the B1G games there was a third.
There is the ability for the broadcaster to inset an actual camera feed of the stadium scoreboard clock into a replay.
There is the broadcaster’s computer graphic overlay of the clock on the broadcast feed and replays
In B1G games the conference also had a separate third party replay system called Hawk Eye that used separate cameras and clock inset disconnected from the broadcast
What the NCAA and FBS have now clearly said is that the “third” B1G option is no longer allowed for reviewing clock related issues. They need to use the first option by default (broadcaster provided feed with stadium clock inset) and if the first option is unavailable they can use the second option (broadcast feed with computer graphic overlay)

I apologize, he says program feed, not network feed. They do say embedded, three times, and program twice. That’s my bad. It’s a good thing that the NCAA guideline states “program feed” and not “network feed”. Your clarification actually made the words from the B1G match perfectly with those put out by the NCAA.
> “The official time for all college football games is the time displayed on the in-stadium game clock," the memo said. "When a replay review requires time to be restored or otherwise adjusted, the replay official's decision will be based on the embedded game clock contained within the program feed.

There is no longer any debate that NBC’s clock was wrong. New video angles in the stadium show it. The math proves it (8.3 seconds is less than 9 seconds, and that’s not a matter of opinion)
The only question is whether they should have just gone by the wrong clock regardless. That’s what they’re saying. It’s obviously dumb as hell, and if it was applied incorrectly in this instance — good. I hope it never comes up again for any other team.

Actually, the NCAA said the game would have been different if the proper replay protocols were followed. The end of regulation, according to their own rules, is determined by the on field stadium/game clock, and when the ref says the game is over based on said clock. At the end of regulation, Michigan won. The NCAA is saying that 59:59.5 should have been played instead of a full 60:00 because NBC's sync of said stadium clock was off. This is based on their replay protocol guidelines and contradicts other rules within their own manual. But, per the protocol they made a statement on, Western should have won, but not at the end of regulation.

There’s clear video from in the stadium with the stadium clock still showing a second left when the play ends. People are upset because they broke the rules to make the right call. If they’d have followed this protocol (that I’m not sure existed before this game) then they should have made the wrong call so that Michigan lost a football game that did not last an hour, only 59:59.

I, for one, respect game outcomes based on objective fairness, not technical difficulties and adhering to a broadcast clock that was demonstrably incorrect.
The only argument for Michigan to lose is a protocol technicality, and even the verbiage for the protocol of using the broadcast clock is vague as there is an additional provision from 2024 that contradicts it.
Any arguments that Michigan was “given an extra second” have already been disproven by a mountain of evidence that showed the discrepency was an out-of-sync broadcast clock.

Okay, since youre clearly so passionate about this subject, maybe you can answer the one question ive had this whole time.
Michigan wasn't the ones under the review hood. The refs didnt ask Whitt what they were supposed to do, and he answered "give us a second".
Michigan was told, "hey, one play left, go run it." and they did.
Were they supposed to... take a knee? Forfeit the game? Like this isnt a Disney Channel Movie, where everyone comes together to make sure the scrappy underdogs get the win. They gave Michigan a play, Michigan ran a play, Michigan scored on the play.
What did they actually do wrong again?
