Oregon's Noah Whittington appeared to score a touchdown during a crucial moment, but a review revealed he dropped the ball just shy of the goal line, creating chaos.
Referee Chris Coyte's confusing announcement added to the drama: 'After review, the ruling on the field is confirmed; it's a touchdown,' despite the earlier doubts.
Coach Dan Lanning expressed relief after the review, acknowledging the need for better coaching on ball handling: 'That ball should make it all the way in the end zone.'
While not common, the act of dropping the ball before scoring occurs a few times each season, prompting a focus on the importance of maintaining possession.
