Ohio State has just taken a 28-21 lead on Michigan, its latest touchdown coming as the result of a Devin Gardner fumble. Except... it might not have been a fumble. Observe.
GIF: Was Devin Gardner down on key fumble?
Ohio State takes advantage of a Devin Gardner fumble that was questionable at best.
That’s Gardner’s knee coming down, then the hit coming to dislodge the ball, which Ohio State went on to recover.
Incredibly, the officials confirmed the call after a relatively brief review, which boggles the mind. Perhaps a case could be made that the call would stand absent indisputable evidence, but there’s no clear shot that shows the ball out with Gardner still up; quite the contrary.
The Buckeyes marched down the field for the go-ahead score, and that’s where we are.
