Internet Erupts Claiming Virginia Tech’s ‘Missed’ Field Goal vs. Pitt Actually Went In

College football fans and analysts are fiercely debating a controversial finish involving the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Pitt Panthers on a Friday night. Virginia Tech kicker John Love launched a 36-yard field goal attempt in the final three seconds that would have secured a 36-35 victory, but officials ruled the kick no good, locking in a 35-33 win for Pitt at Lane Stadium.

Replays quickly circulated online, showing the football passing very close to the left upright and prompting widespread questions regarding whether the attempt actually crossed inside the posts. Because the ball sailed higher than the top of the uprights, NCAA rules dictate that the play is unreviewable, leaving the officials' original ruling intact and sealing the outcome in favor of Pitt.
