Anyone else want to punch that azz clown commentator when he kept saying it after the game winning TD?

STFU, man.

It was ridiculous. Steve Levy did an awful job the whole game but he would not let that go!!

Its called normal football procedure after a first down and they set the ball, its normal procedure for the ref to blow the whistle to signal to start the clock.

Because Kaleb got up there and hiked it so fast the whistle kind of just went in hand with when he hiked it to where it almost sounded like a ref blowing the whistle to blow the play dead.

Add to the fact that sound travels slower than light. Pressbox dude is going to hear it WAY after the guy snapping the ball.

If there had been a whistle AFTER the RFP and snap officials would have called an "Inadvertent Whistle" and play wouldn't have counted.

Yep. That said, we've ALL seen enough MAC officiating in our time for one of them to blow the whistle simply because they saw Toledo not reacting to the play. Glad they kept them in their pockets.
