Phantom roughing the passer calls aren’t limited to the NFL

TCU was hit with a phantom roughing the passer penalty

The replay booth took an apparent TD from Michigan in the Fiesta Bowl on Saturday.

Later in the second quarter, the officials threw a flag for roughing the passer on the Horned Frogs’ Johnny Hodges, a 6-foot-2, 240-pound transfer from Navy.

The hit wasn’t late and appeared to be clean.

The ESPN broadcast booth was surprised by the call and said in the NFL maybe, not in college football.

The Horned Frogs’ defense stiffened, so the questionable call led to no points for the Wolverines, who were being handled, 21-3.
