Everyone is saying the same thing about the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame refs: they missed a big call.
In the second quarter, Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. caught a deep pass down the right sideline. The officials ruled that Harrison Jr. was out of bounds when he made the catch, but replays showed that his hand definitely came down in bounds.
The missed call was a big one because it cost Ohio State a touchdown. The Buckeyes were down 14-7 at the time, and a touchdown would have tied the game. Instead, Ohio State had to settle for a field goal, and they went on to lose the game 21-10.
Fans and pundits alike have been critical of the officials for missing the call. Some people have even called for the officials to be fired.
“The refs missed a huge call in the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game,” one fan wrote on Twitter. “Harrison Jr. was clearly in bounds when he made that catch. That call cost Ohio State the game.”
“The refs in the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game were terrible,” another fan wrote on Twitter. “They missed so many calls. It’s a joke.”

“The refs need to be held accountable for their mistakes,” one pundit wrote. “The missed call in the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game was inexcusable.”
The Big Ten Conference has issued a statement saying that the call was reviewed and that the officials made a mistake. The statement also said that the Big Ten Conference is committed to improving the accuracy of its officiating.
However, the statement has not done much to appease fans and pundits. They are still calling for the officials to be held accountable for their mistakes.
The missed call in the Ohio State vs. Notre Dame game is a reminder that even the best officials can make mistakes. It is also a reminder that missed calls can have a big impact on the outcome of a game.
