ACC officially refuses to admit mistake.

I hear you, but that's not the standard they use. They don't zoom in, cut, crop, lighten, etc. It's as the footage shows. Not defending it but that's not the process.

At the end of that article, Lee is correct.

"To be honest, the game should have never been close," Lee said. "Offensively, we didn't play good enough. There's several opportunities every single quarter where we should have put it away. It never should have came down to the wire like that."

The game shouldn't have come down to that. Tough though when your QB has a game like that. Then the defense has two players that literally blow it all up with 27 seconds to go. Perfect storm of bad calls, playsz and performance on the night.
The referee stole 21-28 pts from Miami.

That isn't coach/play better when they do that.
 
Shouldn’t have worn those ugly *** uniforms

What youbs
It is unfortunately naive to think that any amount of complaining by Miami fans will affect the decision-making or thought processes of the ACC refs or the leadership of the conference. Why? The ACC has its HQ in Charlotte, NC. The Carolina schools like Duke & UNC joined in 1953 according to Wikipedia. UVA joined in ‘53 also. Miami joined 51 years later in 2004. Where do you think the balance of power lies in the ACC (with certain schools having joined 70 years ago)?

Georgia Tech joined in ‘79 (a full 25 years before Miami).

Should we complain about that terrible fumble call? The answer is “yes.” Will our complaining make any difference whatsoever in the balance of power & future calls by ACC refs. Unfortunately, the answer is a definite “no”. The ACC has shown that it always favors its founding members & those that joined decades before Miami did
What you say is true, and I agree that fans complaining is not going to do much.

However, our administration has a responsibility to take this up with conference officials and they should be called out publicly. Will it change anything, probably not, but you still need to point out the corruption publicly.

He was an NFL referee for more than 15 years, then he became senior VP of officiating for the NFL and the retired to become officiating supervisor for the ACC. HIs son went to Belen with me, then went to Columbus, then boarding school. Younger son graduated from Belen.
A Belen and Columbus alum, that's an interesting combo.
