Opinions on that INT

Bad Iowa offense showed up, I have better things to do in life than watch that aggravating mess. Watching Hunt for Red October now
Based off that rule, it should of been called a TD on the field. I'm assuming replay can correct that, and instead they confirmed the int. That's maddening honestly.
I honestly don't understand how anyone even considers after looking at the replay how you can think that it's an INT. I do understand the call on the field I really do. Positioning favored OSU on the play and without a good look at that speed it's hard not to call it an INT. But when you look at the replay, that was 100% without a shadow of a doubt that Murdock had possession the whole time. The ball was only even able to stick because of Murdocks possession of it against Green's body. He had possession of the catch all the way down and there was no moment whatsoever that Green had any possession of it. I was 100% confident that was getting overturned, and when it didn't, I unfortunately suffered a keyboard casualty
Does it matter if offensive player has one hand on it and defensive has 2 hands?
Here's the order I saw:
1. Pass interference on OK State if it were called consistently (not reviewable)
2. They get two hands on it simultaneously as we get one hand on it.
3. Players come down in that position.
4. ISU player comes up with ball in bounds.
Does anybody dispute that's the general order of things? The one thing we don't see at all is any "process of a catch" from an OK State player. The only process being completed is by Murdock. It looks like an interception to me but "process" kind of has the result just slightly in question.
Yes the cowboys were holding our receivers with one hand ...so he couldnt get closer to the ball and batting the ball away with the other hand.........well thats the officiating in the Texas conference......if U want a call U had better either be from Texass or Oklahomaville.......Otherwise you are not getting the call to win a game
Marchie made a hell of a play on it, because the fact that we're even arguing about it given where is was thrown in a small miracle.
I do not think the OSU guy established a catch before Murdoch stole it, then they rolled OB and the OSU got it again. I honestly could've seen them come back with any of the 3 outcomes after the review, but of course they confirmed the play, which imho was completely wrong.
The PI/non PI calls were a joke and is the most pissed i've been since George stole the ball form the Texas running back.

To me it looked like they both had 1 hand on the ball. I don't think OSU had two hands on it until they were out of bounds
Compare this outcome to this one from ISU's past: Jarvis West vs. KState: https://photos.smugmug.com/archives...r7rC/0/e9e27bdd/X2/[email protected]
The only time he has sole possession is when it was out of bounds. Marchie had first possession, the defender got in on simultaneous possession as they rolled over. Then the defender rips it away after the play is dead out of bounds.
OSU's right arm is pinned behind Marchie.
OSU's left arm is flailing wildly trying to dislodge the ball.
Marchie has is with his right arm, in bounds, knee down.
I am coming to the view that while it LOOKED like an INT if the letter of the law were followed on both simultaneous possession and completely catch process there's no way OK State is the team that caught the ball.
I could change my mind if I saw a rule that somehow said 2 hands on ball completely overrules 1 hand on ball...but I still don't think OK State player ever completed process.
Where are you seeing OSU guy with TWO hands?! Please provide an image, because I think your're seeing things.
He really doesn't ever have sole possession and he definitely never completes any process whatsoever.
Why are people arguing about the play call? This is a thread about whether we think it was a TD or INT.
