Big Ten: Officials Spotted the Ball Incorrectly on Oregon's 2-Point Conversion Attempt vs. UCLA
The conference said the ball should have been spotted at the half-yard line after a facemask penalty, a mistake that preceded Oregon’s failed tying try.
- The Big Ten admitted on Sunday that officials incorrectly spotted the ball during Oregon's crucial two-point conversion attempt in Saturday's 17-15 loss to UCLA at Autzen Stadium.
- Following a facemask penalty against UCLA, officials placed the ball at the 1.5-yard line when rules required spotting it at the half-yard line from the end of the run on the first attempt.
- UCLA's defense smothered running back Jordon Davison on the subsequent conversion attempt, thwarting the Ducks' effort to tie the game late in the fourth quarter.
- Oregon head coach Dan Lanning emphasized focusing on the "current moment" rather than looking ahead, stating the team now faces an "uphill battle" regarding postseason destiny.
- The 17-15 defeat dropped the Ducks out of The Associated Press Top 25, leaving them needing to win remaining games to contend for an at-large playoff bid.
