UT went for it in OT on 4th and goal. The runner was stopped short of the goal line but clearly reached his arm to extend the ball across the goal line before the whistle blew. He was on top of a Purdue player and not touching the ground. It was ruled that he was stopped short. On replay review, the call was held up, with the refs essentially saying the whistle was irrelevant. All that mattered was the one official who ruled that his forward progress was stopped. I listened to some discussion on it on it the SECN and nobody could really come up with a way to explain the call.
I know it’s UT and all, so yay for that, but I would be livid if we got screwed like that.

Did Tennessee get hosed on controversial no-touchdown call in Music City Bowl?
The officials said it wasn't a touchdown.
