Hate to be that guy, but

I cannot remember in my decades of watching football a first down being reviewed and overturned after being called a first down on the field. What prompted them to review it, did I miss something?

The context in which that happened was what was so unusual.
It was a bad overturn. Even the announcers and their reply guy said it should be left as a first down.

Man we have had some atrocious missed holding calls over the years and last night they missed some really obvious ones but what they did last night saying there was conclusive evidence Beck was short might just be the worst call I have seen.

You know it's bad when folks on the Hokie board were saying the officials were ******** us on that call.

Regardless, I'll take that officiating crew over the garbage from the ACC.

There was 0 irrefutable evidence on the replays to show cause for reversing a call on the field. My tin foil hat founds its way to my head immediately after that.
It was hard to keep the tinfoil hat down for that one. Same with the JS extended push and PI on their fresh. Or the egregious holds and even worse, hands to the face at least 3 obvious times.

Nonetheless, OSU fans have their tinfoil hat on for the Mali offsides and aTm for the no call on OJ on the sideline.

Maybe the officials just generally suck.
