Message: [QUOTE="Consigliere, post: 3201834, member: 559"] Not sure what the bowl selection rules are but I was under the impression that Notre Dame could steal the ACC's Orange Bowl bid and there was a vested interest in having Wake Forest win the game. That was the only logical explanation I could come up with for some of the calls. Upon watching the replays most were letter of the law correct (excepting the late hit on Welch), but not within the spirit of the rule. The hit on the punt return should have been a no call. Returner was lunging forward as he caught the ball and he initiated contact. The face mask started with Alton's hand on the back of the jersey and sliding up to the helmet as the QB was going to the ground. Sometimes you have to use some semblance of judgement, right? [/QUOTE]
