Comments on: OSU/Michigan: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly http://montaraventures.com/blog/2006/11/19/osumichigan-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/ Mike Harding's Blog Wed, 07 Jan 2009 22:54:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: mike http://montaraventures.com/blog/2006/11/19/osumichigan-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/#comment-839 mike Tue, 21 Nov 2006 15:11:16 +0000 http://www.montaraventures.com/blog/?p=224#comment-839 Actually, I note two drives resulting in touchdowns for the Wolverines where they were directly aided by the refs: - Incomplete pass never reviewed - Phantom pass interference There were 10 points directly as a result of unforced turnovers. That's effectively 25 of 39 points that were "unearned." If the scores that would have resulted are taken into account, this was a 56-14 type game. It certainly looked that way watching it. To be realistic though, the 10 points on turnovers happened, so 49-24 if we have good refs (takes the 7 away from OSU on the headshot and 15 away from Michigan on bogus calls aiding them.) For all those clamoring for a rematch, trust me, you don't want to see it, it would be a beat down.

I trust you are not referring to the roughing the passer penalty, which was called due to the helmet to helmet contact and occurred out of bounds.
