I am surprised this hasn't been brought up yet: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/blog/dr_saturday/post/How-USC-tacked-on-one-last-touchdown-two-hours-?urn=ncaaf-wp6197
Thoughts on the Pac 12 changing the score two hours after the game?
-
Makes the NCAA look even more stupid than they already did.

Apparently, the moral of the story is for bookies to wait to pay.

Why? I was surprised that the score didn't count when I saw it live. The foul that was called could have been either under 9-2-1-b-1 or 9-2-5 both of which are penalized as dead ball fouls since they are fouls against "non-players". Since that foul is penalized as a dead ball foul it would only be enforceable on the try since time expired during the play and there would be no subsequent kickoff. However, the try was not necessary since the scoring team was ahead by more than 2 points, so the foul would not be enforced and the game is over.
I was not surprised to see the final score adjusted when I saw in on ESPN this morning. It was an easy adjustment because there would be no subsequent plays to worry about.
They corrected a easily correctable error and made the score what it should have been under the rules.
10-2-5-c, 8-3-2-a

I'll I can say is do not believe what you read in the media as to exactly what happened - there were no officiating rule errors on that play.

This makes more sense.
From the snippets I saw on the highlights shows on Saturday, it looked like a live ball foul was called on a play where time expired, that the score was vacated, but another play was not run. I'm less confused, now.
