Utah's athletic director reminds the referee why they fired him, a breakdown

the officiating crew tonight thank you

thank you all right harsh words from the

athletic director who just sat down

impromptu and let it rip this breakdown

is brought to you by Mountain Dew they

were winning the game he says we w won

this game well they're up 21 to 19 1

minute 35 seconds left and BYU who's

undefeated fourth and 10 all the way

backed up so yes they think they won the

game they think this is ours you know

BYU is a little nervous Utah's clapping

it up they believe they've got this one

locked up look at those pom poms look at

them waving in the air they're going to

make the stop why wouldn't they so

here's the first fourth and 10 snapped

play r out almost sacked picks him up

quarterback rolls and

then they think they won they're

celebrating but clearly the play was

dead or something and the refs get

together and say uh so no play he's like

yeah no play coach called timeout it was

it was close but called timeout but Utah

thinks you know for a second they think

they made the Stop and they won but

here's the replay saying timeout timeout

timeout right before they snap the ball

so a little fake out there momentum

emotional swing coach of Utah oh

ah all right but hey it's still fourth

and 10 okay BYU they're still in a tough

spot they're not happy Utah's happy even

though they're four- four one and four

in conference having a tough season this

would be a big win so the pom poms are

up the crowd is dancing the players are

getting up right just one more stop

they'll win this game here we go QB's

got it there he's and taken down taken

down a stop they celebr they're shooting

arrows they're thanking God they're

jumping they're thanking the crowd

getting in the video crowd is

celebrating everyone's going crazy let's

go tries to do the upside down glasses

can't really do it and then uh-oh flag

holding on the defense number five 10

yard penalty automatic first down

oh what twice they thought they had the

game one here is the call this is the

controversial call I'm not going to sit

here and tell you I know what the right

call is but I want you guys to sit in

the comment section and tell me what the

right call is because you guys know all

right so this is the hold call that

everyone's upset about and you can see

he bumps him there and then goes down

from that angle you can't really see the

hands you can see the the ref throw the

flag here's a sideline angle someone

shot on their phone of the two and this

just has the first

initial contact looks like the defender

bumps him on the outside shoulder then

the receiver Cuts in and that's all we

really got here but when I piece it

together it doesn't look like the ref

called it off that initial contact it

looks like he's calling it off

whatever's happening there because off

this touches the outside shoulder

receiver tries to run in right

here it looks like he's not touching him

both hands are off and then

re-engages but you can't tell what

really is going on watch so this is

you're G to have the official that makes

the call in view he's pretty far away

top right of your screen and if I ISO

just those two there's the play and that

official and he doesn't call it on the

initial contact it's this contact right

there where you see number five's right

hand kind of rip and the back hand is on

his shoulder where he decides yeah I'm

going throw a flag what do you got leave

a comment you guys know is that holding

is it not is everything holding all the

time they just choose to call it

sometimes maybe I don't know anyway

first and 10 they still can get the stop

they can still make a pick do they oh oh

that would have been interception for

the game he can't believe it he thinks

he should have grabbed it now it's

second and 10 still they're up they can

make a stop number 12 the QB steps back

throws the ball catch Defender says no

no no no no that's not a catch they go

under the hood they look at the replay

again I think Utah is saying rule it no

catch come on come on you've been us

this whole time rule it no catch looks

like a catch there and does he get his

hands under yep and then he rolls looks

like his hand is under there looks like

a catch to me again I'm no expert but

that one looks like a catch to me but I

think Utah is just this is the third in

instances of like what the hell like

yeah really on the field stands first

down uhoh oh not a catch I don't like

that because now Bo BYU's got momentum

they get another first down right there

they're close to field goal range all

they got to do is pitch it he runs in

now they're in field goal range and some

and Utah is all of a sudden uhoh they're

nervous they're this is oh can't

breathe chest is heavy uh oh please miss

please miss no BYU drills it to stay

undefeated well there's three seconds

left they're celebrating Utah coach

ah

oh high five Galore in the crowd and

then you got the quarterback looking for

his captain where you at where you at

where you at big all hug big all hug

look at this this is cute I'm going hold

your head you hold my head let's look

into each other's eyes tell ourselves

we'll remember this forever we're best

friends we're going to tell our kids

about this someday you and me here we go

let's do it these guys are shocked they

can't believe it what just happened this

guy's shocked but in a happy way he he's

he's like what and then you got the

squib kick and the million laterals and

even if this got run back for a

touchdown it wouldn't have counted cuz

the athletic director for Utah ran onto

the field in the middle of this play to

argue with the officials and then he's

on the field right here listening in and

this is where it gets interesting

because he's listening in he's listening

in and they say like whatever yeah the

game's over I'm G to read his lips right

here I'm going to go very slow the first

time because this is what he says he

because that's why we fired you in the

Pack 12

so a little faster that's why we fired

you in the Pack

12 that's why we fired you waving his

finger in his face like that's why we

fired you I was like wait what what

happened so Utah just went from the Pack

12 to the Big 12 and um I guess they're

not excited about it and then I saw this

tweet where the guy says the lead

referee Kevin Maher was a longtime Pack

12 referee that joined the 12 this year

like the UTS so this athletic

director says that they I guess all the

athletic directors I don't really know

how it works they got this uh head

official fired in the Pack 12 he had to

get a new job a new landing spot he

lands in the Big 12 and now he's dealing

with him again in a big 12 so I guess

there's history between this official

and this athletic director and that's

why he's so mad as well as all the times

they thought they were going to win and

then you see the coach goes uh what you

call all that

you guys something something step

up so I don't know what that is you guys

help me here you

guys and that's definitely I think right

here step up I think that's step up I

think this is you guys and I don't know

like you guys needed to step up you guys

just needed a step up something like

that and ref says something he goes yeah

looks like Josh Donaldson to me right

there but uh yeah so he's upset the ad's

upset the other coach is like uh just

looking for a handshake okay never mind

then fans can't believe it hands on

heads just desponded horrible horrible

boo thumbs down middle finger and then

uh Big 12 finds him 40 Grand really

large fine but yeah you can't be saying

stuff like that so of course you got to

find a ton of money and then he came out

and he was like hey I was just upset

sorry it's like yeah dude a lot of

people get upset after losses you still

can't say that uh but interesting

that there might be a history between

That official and Utah I mean Pack 12

officials I think they're like a hashtag

meme situation anyway grab your friends
