This clip was posted somewhere else.  I think it was titled "I'm exhausted."  As for the mechanics, I like the way the ref immediately got to the sideline to be an extra set of eyes ensuring all were backward passes.  Also like that there's a man at the goal line when he scores.  It looked a little like 5 man but there's an extra ref in that pic at the end.  I'm sure someone on here knows more than I do about whether this was a 5 or 7 man crew.  Umpire seems to do a good job of watching and more or less staying out of the way, also seems to be having a  sNiCkErS.

It was either 6- or 7-man crew.  I don't remember when D-II went to 7-man.

I can't pull the video through the firewall at the office, but if this is the Millsaps game 3 or 4 years ago it was a 7-man crew.
