The no catch call on 3rd and goal of Tennessee’s opening drive will be one of the most controversial calls of ย its game against Appalachian State.

Wide receiver Preston Williams seemed to have caught a touchdown in the back of the end zone before being brought toย the ground. However, the referees ruled it an incomplete pass and the Vols were forced to kick a field goal.

Instead of moving ahead, Tennessee trailed Appalachian State 7-3 in the first quarter.

Volquest’s Paul Fortenberry tweeted a closeup view of the play, which can be seen below.

Were the referees right or wrong on this one?
