So the officials screwed up in Stillwater on Saturday. We know that. They admitted that after the game.
But Mike Gundy screwed up as well, and not for the reason you probably think. Gundy didn’t screw up because he didn’t know the rule about how a loss-of-downs penalty should not have resulted in an untimed down. He screwed up because he basically didn’t think intentional grounding would be called to begin with. Which is sort of crazy when you think about it.
“I asked the official, and they said, ‘a penalty on the offensive team with the clock expired cannot end the game,'” said Gundy.
