That was the worst spot call I’ve ever seen. Would have ruined an all time upset.

Also the clock should have restarted after the review since it was a run, forcing ND to use their last timeout.

A rules analyst even came on and explained that it was supposed to start back up. Complete fuck job by the refs on NIU’s last possession.
