This is what a formal replay review looks and sounds like...if this process wasn't followed, it was the simple review that happens via every play of the game as the replay official looks for spots where he needs to stop the game. Newsflash...they didn't formally review this sequence, and Franklin could have certainly challenged it.This is too much - you clearly have a mental cognitive disorder douche-wad - this is excepted DIRECTLY from the SEC's Official Statement on the matter:
"The replay booth was consulted to confirm the down prior to the punt. The replay booth had it as 4th down as well."
But now your speculation on these matters supercedes the actual FACTS as given by the SEC Officiating Office. God are you a douche!
