don't think the ball crossed the goal line...and Ole Miss had blown their TO

I think the ball did cross the goal line. But even if if didn't, I don't understand how they don't review it.

Not enough time. Ole Miss had to run up and snap it.

it wasn't a TD. His knee was down, ball caught in front of the line.

Evan Weaver's words after the game - awesome.
He's a beauty.

10 seconds is just too short to initiate a replay review, especially when Ole Miss was hurrying to snap the ball. It was chaotic on the field.

So . . . we just won in an SEC stadium.

Really hard to say.

Saved by ESPNU's cable access budgeted dumpster fire production's lack of a decent angle.
They had a goal line angle on the final play. They obviously had it on the prior play. Cal was lucky.

A win is a win. Lot better than I thought. Yes nail biter but now we have enough offense to win. Not perfect but he you have tape to learn.

For once, I'm thankful for the crappy P12 officiating!!!

No goal line camera? I'd like to see a replay.
Even if we got away with one there, the entire drive is predicated on a play where their receiver wildly pushed off and got away with it. I don't feel bad about anything. Go Bears!

Also they would have needed to covert a 2 just to tie.

HAHAHA... Pac12 refs screw someone besides the Pac12.

Are you aware that Arizona State played Michigan State last week?

Weaver got 22 tackles today? Another Player of Week selection this week?

Must be karma because Cal plays ASU on Friday.

He needs to be in the Heisman conversation.

It's tough to win in the road. Cal has beat Washington and Ole Miss on the road. It's a testament to the mental toughness and how the coaches prepare our kids. Great job all around this year. To start 4-0 is huge. Love Wilcox and his staff.

We, or maybe O'l Miss, was lucky not to get one of our flag happy crews.

Yeah discounting the final moments, I'm glad they mostly let the teams play. Very refreshing.

Maybe being in the South makes you call games like SEC refs.

I love that the team seems to play the same on the road as they do at home. Not that common in college football.

Even bigger than this win is the fact that it's possible we now have a QB.

Sky is the limit if he can play anywhere close to this.

Being 4-0...after two tough road trips and all these injuries is absolutely remarkable.

Can't the booth initiate a review? Or does that only happen if the play is called a TD on field?

Absolutely! And this win was done with a lot of key players out of the game.

They can initiate at any time. But they need to do it before the ball is snapped for the next play . . . and Miss was racing the snap it.

Prett fortunate it wasn't initiated.

Even if the call was confirmed, it would've given time for ole miss to regroup and call a play

And I honestly think it would have been confirmed. The camera angles were not good enough.

Sucks for Ole Miss but we also got "almost" screwed by budget level camera production. Chris Brown's TD vs. Washington.

More likely, they would have let the call stand. Same difference.
