Not enough to see on video to overturn. The call would have stayed the same no matter what the official called on the field.

FRUG when are the refs gonna call the game and not try to play!?!?!?!?


I didnt care who won the game, but it looked like the ball crossed the plane of the goal line before being pushed back to me.

Me neither. I just hoped for a good game.

The nose of the ball broke the plane before the player and the ball were down.

Personally Im all in favor of going back to the old original rules of the game when just breaking the plane would not have been good enough.

In the old rules in order to score you literally were supposed to touch the ball down in the endzone.

That is why its called a "Touchdown"

That way it would eliminate any question in such matters

Exactly right.  To over turn a call you need "Indisputable Evidence."  The ball might have (just barely) crossed the plane.  Had the ref said NO touchdown, there wouldn't have been enough evidence to overrule it.  

The ref said TOUCHDOWN, and there wasn't enough evidence to overturn it.


Either way the ref on the field called it, was how it was going to stand (though I personally don't think it went in at all).

Oh, also about the pushing off call.  While it may have been minor, it was there.  And if there's one game where the Refs should not let anything happen or lose control it is the superbowl.
