Title: Oklahoma State - Central Michigan
Post by: DQ12 on September 12, 2016, 09:21:17 AM
Why aren't people LOSING THEIR MINDS over the finish of that game?  Why didn't Gundy go on a half hour rant in the post game press conference? 

I have no clue what I would do if that happened to k-state, but I imagine I would be writing letters to the Big 12 Conference offices and the NCAA offices for starters.  Probably the MAC offices too.

I would also DEMAND that K-State claim the victory.

Exactly!  This should be front page of NYT stuff, but Gundy and Co. are like, "sure, CMU got an extra play even though the game was over but ho hum whatever let's just move on."  I hope this screws OSU out of bowl eligibility just to teach them a lesson that sometimes you need to raise hell.

If I was Mike Gundy, I probably wouldn't want to call more attention to the time I lost to Central Michigan at home.  In the past, the NCAA has been pretty clear that they aren't going to overturn the results of a game so that is all he would be doing. 

I am generally against overturning the results of a game but with the last play of the game being completely erroneous, this is a game that could justify it.

I had a Twitter meltdown and was a little embarrassed by it. OSU should do something, its pathetic that the Big 12 is just rolling over and taking this. People keep comparing this to the Miami Duke finish last year and it isn't close to the same thing. The Miami Duke game wasn't extended by a play, that was just a couple of missed calls. The 1972 Russia USA basketball game is a much better example. A two game suspension for the two crews involved is pathetic. There is no reason that the CMU win shouldn't be vacated and both referee crews fired, there is no way that OU wouldn't be given this win if it happened to them.

Another thing that is bothering me is that people are calling Mike Gundy dumb for calling that throw away play. It wasn't dumb, it was absolutely the best call. How was it Gundy's fault that Rudolph didn't get out of the pocket. I've seen that play called a thousand times, we did it last year against WVU, the lions did it yesterday. You can call them stupid for not talking to the refs about extending the play, I was sitting in my living room wondering if that was right and Mike Pererra said before the play happened that they misapplied the rule.

Yea, I think most people are over it because OSU tried really hard to lose that game and succeeded.

FWIW - I said this at the end of that ridiculous Miami game last year, but if you can objectively determine that a game ending call was incorrect, it would make sense for there to be a mechanism where the result could be changed within 24 hours.

This is another thing that keeps OSU from complaining too much. You have at least a dozen coaches on the sideline and none of them know that rule? Maybe they just figured there was an exception in that circumstance? I do think there is an element of unfairness in being able to commit a penalty on the last play that works in your favor.

Gundy should've done all of d-rew's things on the field after the refs said there'd be an untimed down and before the untimed down happened, if he even knew the rule.  If he didn't even know and only knows now b/c of the tv ref guy or mir and his rulebook phone app, it's too late for him to bitch.

agree 100%.  even if Rudolph didn't get out of the pocket, STILL NOT DUMB.  because who cares if it's intentional grounding?  game over either way. 

the only dumb thing OSU has done is not make a huge stink after the refs decided to give CMU a play.  although, generally speaking, it's not too ridiculous to expect the officials to know and properly apply the rules of the game.  i'm generally pretty lenient on officials because, hey, they make mistakes, they miss things sometimes -- the game moves quickly and a missed hold here or there isn't 100% outcome determinative. but this one was. in this instance, the call was not a judgment call issue.  it was 100% just applying the procedural rules of the game to determine whether or not the game had ended. 

what injustice occurs if OSU is given the win?  what argument could CMU possibly make if they were determined the losers?

Another thing that bothers me is how people are minimizing how good CMU is. OSU shouldn't have lost to be sure but people are acting like CMU is as shitty as Eastern Michigan. They've been to bowl games the last two years, they almost beat OSU last year, and they currently have more players in the NFL than most of the Big 12. BTW for most of this board who missed this game because they were watching the first quarter of Ohio KU, :lol: CMU plays KU in '17th and '18th but they will not have their current QB who is the best they've ever had.

Pretty sure a reporter said when asked at the end of the game Gundy just said "I need to look at the rule." So safe to say he did not make a big stink about it in real time.

So if Gundy didn't know that even an intentional grounding would end the game (and it's seeming clear he didn't), and he still ran a play that he couldn't be 100% sure his team wouldn't execute in the one hilariously bad way that wouldn't end the game in that questionable (to him) rule situation, then the whole debacle is on him.

He's probably correct about rule interpretations, but he's a dang moron when it comes to video reviews. I suppose you could argue that the refs are just always wrong, but that doesn't seem likely to me.

If Gundy knew the rule, he should've physically show the refs the rule and raise hell and not leave the field before the untimed down until the refs heard him out and ended the game.  Get your objection on the record

If Gundy didn't know the rule, he shouldn't have called that play and put his team in a spot where they could eff themselves.

Either way, it's on Gundy.

Wait a minute, knowing the rule or not shouldn't have dictated whether or not he asked Rudolph to throw the ball away, Rudolph didn't properly execute the play, he needed to take two more steps.

He is absolutely wrong for not even asking the officials if they are sure they are applying the rule correctly. If he asked they could have and should have call up to the booth, they do have a rule book. No one, before Saturday, had seen a game extend because of an offensive penalty, Gundy and the OSU coaches should have slowed that sit down and got some clarification.

Two absurdities here:
1. College football thinking that the only way to reverse a game result is for the beneficiary to say no thanks is laughable.
2. LOL at CMU even taking 3 seconds to think about this. That win could be a potential windfall for that school outdid they need it for bowl eligibility, that loss essentially means nothing to OSU. They win out they're in the playoff.

If he didn't know the rule, meaning he thought that an intentional grounding wouldn't end the game or he wasn't sure about it, he shouldn't have called that play b/c clearly he shouldn't have had confidence that his team could execute it correctly.  He should've had a receiver going down to the corner of the endzone and had his guy throw it 15 feet past that guy, or ran any of the other dozens of plays they could've ran out the clock w/o putting themselves in jeopardy under his uninformed understanding of the rule.

why on earth does it preclude him from crying about it now?  his subjective knowledge of the rule doesn't affect whether or not the rule exists.  he can say "yeah, I didn't know the rule. but now I do, and the rule says the game is over and we win."  when officials wrongly extend the game, they should be corrected.  period.  and gundy downplaying the finish makes him look embarrassed and weak to me.  if I were one of his players, i'd be pretty steamed, i'd think.

in hindsight, yes, that play call is super risky from Gundy's perspective if he is under the impression that an intentional grounding penalty extends the game.  but guess what, it doesn't!  so objectively, and assuming the rules of football are properly applied (which is a fair assumption I might add), it was the right call.

I absolutely agree with this. The officials messed up and as a direct result of that OSU lost the game.

I will say I think the rule is dumb in this instance. I think an offensive penalty that results in a change of possession should be treated like a defensive penalty in this situation with an untimed down. But that is another discussion.

Saying this loss means nothing to OSU is ridiculous.  Now they have to win out for a shot at the playoff whereas before they could've lost a future game.  You can asterisk it all you want but 10-2 OSU with losses to CMU and OU is not getting in where a 11-1 OSU with a loss to OU would.  Although unlikely, a 11-1 OSU with a loss to CMU could miss out.  They could just as easily be jumped in the bowl pecking order as CMU and the loss could be the difference between the playoff or a new year's six game.

Absolutely.  Common sense would dictate that there should be an untimed down.  Maybe common sense is what Gundy limited his decision-making factors to, as opposed to considering what the rule actually is.

This is actually what I believe. Gundy and co. probably didn't think to complain because (1) it seemed fair at the time, and (2) they didn't think CMU had a serious chance of scoring.

I don't think it necessarily precludes Gundy from complaining about it now, but he shares a substantial part of the blame just like the KSU coaches when the refs messed up on the first down markers last year (against OSU, IIRC).

I fundamentally disagree with this proposition.

You keep hitting on this "preserving your appeal" crap, but referees aren't trial judges.  As if I need an example to show this -- referees don't wait until a coach objects to a hold before deciding to throw a flag.  Further, there's apparently no appeal process anyway, so what exactly would he be preserving his objection for? 

Gundy's understanding of the rule means zilch when it comes to whether the officials properly determining whether or not the game was over.

Gundy's understanding of the rule means zilch when it comes to whether the officials properly determining whether or not the game was over.

You want to take the game out of the refs' hands.  Gundy could've done that and won, by either knowing the rules or doing almost anything other than what he did.  The refs should've known and applied the rule.  Gundy shouldn't have given them a chance to eff it up.  He blew it, so now this has happened.  He gets no sympathy or recourse.

I remember Nubb boards being completely convinced they could overturn the Big XII 'ship outcome in 2009 because there was that incomplete pass before the game winning FG. They were saying "Lawyers are working on fixing it tonight". I have empathy that OSU got hosed, but I don't like the precident of changing a W to a L

Those two instances are in no way shape or form comparable. One was a lunatic fan base wrong about a clock ruling, the other is the official crew just deciding to go outside of what was permitted to add a play to the game.

would you guys have wanted the 5th down game outcome overturned? (like 25ish years ago I know)

Yes, but even that game has more gray than this ending did. If they gave Missouri the ball after 4th down the game isn't over, this game was O-V-E-R and it was extended by another play.

what injustice occurs if OSU is given the win?  what argument could CMU possibly make if they were determined the losers?

At this point, I think Vegas would have a pretty big problem with it.

Nope, CMU still covers

Is that the only bet available?

Well I don't know what the o/u was but I'm guessing that the 57 they ended up with is still under. I doubt they were taking props and second half bets for CMU OSU.

O/U was above that, but I'm sure they took 2nd half bets for the game, especially given the close halftime score. Also, moneyline betting was affected. I think Jake Trotter tweeted about a fan who had $6k on the moneyline for OSU.

Wait a minute, knowing the rule or not shouldn't have dictated whether or not he asked Rudolph to throw the ball away, Rudolph didn't properly execute the play, he needed to take two more steps.


I mean, this is true, but why didn't they have a receiver just jog down the field? If you're not sure what happens on a grounding penalty, just put a receiver on a go route and throw over his head. That part baffles me

CMU sucks ass and apparently osu sucks harder ass. That was the dumbest rough ridin' play call (reminded me of prince) imaginable, compounded by the most pathetic hail mary prevent defense imaginable. Mike Gundy is a moron, and his team is vastly overrated year in and year out. If he had an ounce of respect he would have agreed to give us our win down there last year when the refs egregiously blew the down and distance. What goes around comes around mullettard.

BTW, it would be unconscionable to allow a game to end on a 4th down intentional grounding penalty. Notwithstanding the mumped up rule, the refs got it right.

1. The rule is dumb. If you throw it with time on the clock on 4th down, the other team should get the ball back for 1 untimed down.
2. They got the call wrong, and the NCAA should overturn it and give OSU the W. This is the only game I would advocate changing the L to a W.
3. We shouldn't even be talking about this because it was a 51 yard hail mary. If you can't defend it, you don't deserve to win.

Meh, the rule is stupid based on change of possession but by the rules CMU's win shouldn't have happened. It doesn't matter what you think should happen, rules should be applied properly based on how they are written. OSU won the game, the play call was/is one of the best calls in terms of risk/reward you can call in that situation, it was just poorly executed. That being said, OSU's defense shouldn't have allowed that type of play to even happen to win the game.

An addition to 3: the CMU QB could barely throw it 40 yards. To lose on an inverted hook and lateral in that situation makes it even worse. The only worse defense in that situation that I can think of immediately is our debacle in Boulder.

Maybe the refs were confused by the "team in possession" language.  I mean, after the play, CMU was in possession.  It seems like you could get to the right result (one untimed down for CMU), while still complying with the letter of the rule, by simply concluding that OSU was no longer in possession at the end of the play.

This is the correct answer and what I thought of when it first happened.  It's not fair to take a W away from Mich because they played, and won, the game as called on the field.  OSU being dicked in this manner should be repairable because of the outright incompetence of the staff.

Something like:

To make sure no one complains this much again the NCAA has decided to give OSU an extra loss. They are hoping this will "shut them up." CFP committee told to treat this extra loss as if it was to historically bad KU. If old Mullet Gundy wants to complain they'll slap on another loss and kneecap Rudolph.
