I think MC was going to stand still as if he didn’t have the ball and then throw deep on that one. The fact that he wasn’t trying to run does not mean his forward progress had stopped as it was play design.
If he had played it off as dead and then thrown to a receiver at last second, the refs would have accepted that as a reception and Kiffin would look like the ultimate trickster.
The refs screwed up and we lose.
