When does a game end?

[BeecherVol]

The Head of Refs just said saying game over is just lip service and that doesn't actually end the game. Honestly, based on his statement, the game never really ends.

Correct.

When the team wearing orange has less points apparently!

So in the future, when a situation like this occurs again, would Tennessee's best option to be run off that field jump on the bus, and speed off as fast as they can?

Can't hurt....they are oh-for-two when they hang around after they win the game.

I wish dooley would have taken the team off the field. Talk about a media firestorm. It would have put the officiating crew square in the sites. Someone needs to force their hand.

Dooley should have immediately taken the team to the locker room and told the officials that when the official declared the game over, then no official review should take place.

Mike Hamilton said that the replay officials can overrule the head on-field official by saying that something needs to be reviewed so technically no game ever ends

I was thinking as fans we should have stormed the field. Kind of cheezy for a third tier bowl game but might have helped the situation.

Apparently games never end.
