The Big 12 Conference acknowledged an officiating mistake involving a controversial touchdown scored by BYU against Arizona State, prompting a wave of criticism from college football fans. The admission, reported by Pro Football Network's Maliha Akter on November 3, 2026, centered on a replay review decision that allowed the touchdown to stand.
Fans reacted sharply on social media, with comments such as "Fire the People in the Review Room" and "This Is Shady" reflecting frustration over the perceived failure of the review process. The incident has renewed debate about the consistency and transparency of replay officiating in the Big 12 and across college football.
Neither the conference nor the schools involved have released detailed statements beyond the acknowledgment of the error. The game's final result remains unchanged.
