I read an article today that 24 passes in that game went out of bounds and on every single one the clock ticked an extra second or two off the clock after the ball hit something. To arbitrarily go back and put the second back on the clock so Texas could get one more play was wrong IMO.

Interesting that the Big XII replay officials didn't extend the Missouri v Kansas game by 2 seconds as there were 2 full seconds on the clock when Mizzou kicked the game winning field goal through the uprights and the ball hit the net. Missouri ran on the field like they'd won it and nobody said a word....game over.

Next year I expect the Big XII to review every single pass that goes out of bounds to make sure they get that clock exactly right.

I sincerely hope Bama destroys Texas.
