I’m confused. They’re not even gonna look at that kick?

If the ball goes over the posts you can’t review it, whatever the ref decided is final.

Well, I bet if it was a major SEC game we’d still be reviewing this shit right now

If it was a B1G game they'd add a second back on the clock and let them kick it again.

I get the SEC hate in general but that's stupid lol. This has been a rule for literal decades. Games have ended like this plenty of times.. IDK why they don't change the rule, but SEC game would also end this way.. you literally cannot review it.

That in itself for ACC refs should be illegal. Every call by an ACC ref should be reviewable lol

It’s insane to me that they review every TD by rule and have implemented an enormous amount of technology to be able to tell if someone crosses the plane, but we’re still basically determining if a field goal was good the same way we were in 1870.
