Good to see us protected by the refs.  Big 12 knows where the money comes from.

If you switch the jerseys on those calls you know they are going the other way.

ISU always seems to get it worse than anyone.  I wonder how many bowl trips they've been robbed of

Our guys were just so hungry to hit a Cyclone.  Understandable, really.

I, for one, am appalled the refs let it get that close in the first place.  Blue bloods like K-State should get at least 3-5 good calls to start out.

I could see making this thread if we didn't have multiple terrible holding calls missed and the refs sitting on the ball on 4th down to let ISU get their play call in.  These guys were terrible.

They just did that to keep the appearance of impartiality.  They weren't going to let a marquee go down.

This.  I'm positive there was holding somewhere on that punt return.  You don't need to actually see it, you just call it.

That interception was clearly an incomplete pass, but they know who brings the bacon to the conference table. The officials did the right thing.

A ball cannot be incomplete if it doesn't hit the ground and it didn't. The only alternative would be that the ISU receiver had possession and completed the catch when his knees were down before Evans took it.

This **** is why, while I am thankful we are still in the conference given the alternatives, if we ever got the chance to F this conference over for a better situation we should do it in a heartbeat.

It was a clear int, the ISU wr never had possession.

I was pretty confused when the announcers kept suggesting that it might be an incomplete catch. But they're idiots. I don't think the refs were ever thinking it might be incomplete. I was elated when they called it an interception on the field because I think if they would have called the ISU receiver down on the field, it would have been tough to overturn that with the video, especially if they were watching it in slow motion and it seemed like he had control of it longer than he actually did.

As the ball never touched the ground, I have no earthly idea how you could think this.  It's either a completion or an interception... However, you're correct in that the officials got it correct as _FAN has noted.
