I agree wholeheartedly... So since I missed it, please fill me in on some of the other bad calls.
There were several times that obvious pass interference calls were not made. One I clearly remember was late in the 4th quarter when a Nebraska cornerback grabbed Mario Maningham's left arm while he was trying to catch a pass in the end zone. Immediately after the pass went incomplete, the offending corner threw both his arms in the air as if to say "I din't hold anyone - not me". Both ESPN announcers were laughing as they watched the replay. No flags from the officials.
The other one was on the last desperate play of the game, with all the lateral passes, the Nebraska bench emptied and dozens of players were all over the field before the play ended. Again, no flags.
I think that the Big 10 conference should threaten the Alamo Bowl with skipping their future invitations unless they get better game officials.
All this complaining about the stunningly incompetent officials doesn't save Michigan from the criticism that they played as if they didn't care about winning the game.
