Should have been a blowout, but I'm getting tired of all these should have been blowouts. This was probably the worst officiating I've ever seen. Help me out here guys... On 3rd down and a ton, Nevada Community had about a 50 yd run. Nevada was flagged for illegal participation. I was under the impression that if you were flagged for 12 men on the field that it was a 10yd penalty and loss of down. The refs marked 10yds off of the end of the run, and gave Nevada the first down. They scored on this drive. What should the ruling have been? I'm almost certain that they blew it, and it should not have been a first down. Any clarifications???
