What's wrong with getting it right?

Ole Miss was upset about the events at the end of their loss to Alabama. A long pass was invalidated on a replay that, apparently, showed the Ole Miss receiver went out of bounds and was the first one to touch the deep pass.

Ole Miss coach Ed Orgeron offered up this bit of genius:

"The game should not end on a judgment call from the box ... Not after a game like that."

I could be wrong, but I think the replay officials were determining who touched the ball first, not determining the effectiveness of a persuasive essay or the role of carbon emissions on global warming. So, is it a "judgment call"? Perhaps, but not one that is all that complicated. If they have a view that shows the play conclusively, it should be rather simple ... who touched the ball first? (Note: I haven't seen the play in question, so I'm not saying the Ole Miss player touched it first. I don't know.)

And, Coach Orgeron, should the call not be made correctly late in a game? Should they not try to get it right in a close game? Both teams have the right to have the game officiated fairly and to the best of the officials' abilities. Personally, I think it's more important that they get it right late in the game because it's harder to recover from bad calls because you just don't have enough time.

If the call wasn't a good one, that's fine. Blast the replay officials for making the wrong call. But, you have no grounds to complain about a good call because it hurt your team. Maybe your receiver shouldn't have run out of bounds. The system isn't flawed merely because a call goes against you.

Put yourself in the shoes of Alabama and Nick Saban for a second. You'd have a right to be upset if they didn't review it or reviewed it and decided not to overturn a bad call because it's the popular thing to do for the home fans (the game was at Ole Miss). Coach Orgeron has every right to be disappointed. But, you can't add subjectivity to the review process and he shouldn't be advocating it.
