Not if you are down first.
You can't be down and THEN reach out for a TD.
Upon review, the refs should have caught that.
Look at it this way:
A player is on his knees and THEN stretches for a TD or
A player gets tackled on his back and THEN cocks his arm backwards with the ball to break the plane.
The Florida "touchdown" clearly was not a good call; that the refs missed it with the advantage of replay was stunning.
Ohio did not make the first down in the second quarter - Tressel made an incredibly bone-headed move going for it in his own territory...failing gave Florida increased momentum and destroyed OSU's hopes of gaining any.
Dumb, dumb, dumb.
Not that I mind.

It crossed my mind, but we all know that Michigan has shown they can't win the big games. You have to win a big game before you can take that #1 spot.
Michigan finished lower than USC in the polls even before they lost to USC in the Rose Bowl. USC has proven that they are better.
Why should Michigan get the #1 slot??
