Video Shows Nebraska Got Cheated Out Of Win vs Ohio State
Ohio State defeated Nebraska 26-17 on Saturday.
Unfortunately, the win did not come without controversy.
Late in the fourth quarter Nebraska was down six and had possession. On third down, quarterback Adrian Martinez attempted to get the ball to Omar Manning on a slant.
The ball ultimately sailed over Manning’s head and video later showed why. Ohio State defensive back Marcus Williamson played no small role, but not in a good way.

Had the appropriate call been made, Nebraska would have had a first down near midfield down 23-17. Instead, the Buckeyes got the ball and sealed the game.
Aside from occasional stories of an SEC reporter being severely criticized for her extremely “revealing” wardrobe and blatant bullying of team staff, awful refereeing has been the big story of the 2021-22 college football season thus far. It is a problem that has plagued every conference on a near-weekly basis and likely won’t go away any time soon.

At a certain point, something needs to be done about this. Poor officiating is genuinely messing with the integrity of the sport. If something isn’t done soon, the damage will become irreparable.
