IIRC, FSU’s Winston was on the receiving end of both a Horsecollar and Facemask in one play on the final drive. No penalty. There was another missed horsecollar on a receiver running down the right sideline. The announcers commented on that one.
For the most part the refs seemed to be intent on “letting them play”. Auburn did get called on a blatant pass interference in the end zone. Than may be the penalty in question.
That last pass interference was classic pass interference….no way not to call that one. As for the horse collar miss on the long pass play…that was inexcusable….FSU had no such blown call in their favor all night.
The officiating was not a factor in the outcome.
