I agree with her completely.

The 'different standards' argument doesn't really make sense. I can't independently recall another account of the review system going so bad. It is without question OU would have won had they recovered the onside kick as they should have. If they could have successfully taken 3 knees, game over.

I can't think of another blown call subjected to review, and still blown with the same unquestionable ramifications.

I don't think that's asking for a 'different standard,' I think it's asking that Oklahoma not be subjected to unfair penalties (a loss on their record) for someone else's mistake or malfeasance.
