The Oklahoma Sooners went to Kansas State on Saturday as heavy favorites to win. Instead, they leave Manhattan with a 48-41 loss.
However, the Sooners were down by a lot more and at least made things interesting at the end. They even had a chance to tie the game.
As you can see below, it appeared that the Sooners recovered a late onside kick after narrowing the deficit to 48-41:

But, there was a review of the play to see whether the ball hit an Oklahoma player before the 10-yard barrier. A lengthy review followed, including this synchronized replay:

Ultimately, though, it was overturned and ruled that an Oklahoma player touched it too soon. Game over.
Now, Oklahoma’s road to the College Football Playoff gets a lot harder. What do you make of this call?
