Other than the comeback for Stephenville, was there a officiating foul up?

What have you heard?

Saw on a fan board where there was possibly offensive blocking downfield on a key TD pass near end of game (not flagged).  There was a youtube video that had apparently started out as  a highlight video for the team that scored the TD.  That video has been "removed by user"  now.

Something happened, not sure what. Film has been sent all over, chapter is on notice of what I don't know and maybe the first that I've heard of of the uil being in the deal.
 And of course you know how rumors get going and escalate at the speed of the person spreading the rumor. I was betting if there was a screw up, it would be all over by now.

The catch phrase during the UIL-TASO tussle was "accountability".  I believe TASO has made great strides to show UIL we do believe in accountability.  Chapters are supposed to be reporting rule misapplications they become aware of and they are supposed to advise as to the action they have taken in response.  Before everyone starts getting all up in arms..."rule misapplication"  That does not mean judgment calls.   Maybe what you are referring to is the misapplication process being played out.

I ran the 25-sec clock at the game. 
I can't recall any controversy.
Another local official was on the game clock.
We never looked at each other in disbelief after ANY rulings.
The PA announcer sat at the same counter, and he didn't make any comments which would typically start with "Whoa!?!?!"
His spotter sat on a stool behind us, and he didn't have any negative comments.
Yes, there were some DPIs that could have been called, but weren't.
What games DO NOT have those?
I didn't care for the R's position on some tries -- he shaded the HL's side about half the time.  There WAS one kick that was blocked and, of course, it came to the LJ's side, but the play was over about the 20, so the crew lucked out there.
And, yes, the last 35 seconds -- in which three TDs were scored -- was wild, but I saw nothing that would get anyone's panties in a wad.
Does anyone have any specifics?

Fan boards have been quiet.  One did have a hilite video from SVille but it has been removed for unknown reason.  Did see some stories about the game with a still photo.   Was their go ahead TD a pass to sideline ?    News videos suggest  it may have been a close call there but tho are just routine judgment calls

@TSB
Yes, please report what you find out.  Might remove some cobwebs from my feeble brain.
@Mike
I can't remember  ???  but I THINK the B.S. score at 35 seconds left was a post pattern, with the catch at the goal line.  The following S'ville score was a fade to the left, caught over the defender's head about mid-depth of the EZ.  The final S'ville score was the return of an intercepted backward pass.  No question about any of those three.   ^good

Could be sour grapes too... but, you never know.
