Florida State may have missed out on a touchdown during their game against Virginia Tech on Monday night due to a lack of review.
The Seminoles had a 2nd-and-10 at the Virginia Tech 31 during the second quarter and threw a quick pass to Nyqwan Murray, who took the ball down towards the end zone. The call on the field was that he was down at the one, but replay seemed to show Murray may have actually gotten into the end zone.
Florida State has to settle for a FG, but this looked pretty close to being a TD. Should've reviewed it. #Noles pic.twitter.com/H69og6VSQI

Scoring plays are reviewable in college football, so the opportunity to take a look at the play was there. However, FSU went quickly on their next play and didn’t give the officiating crew much time to think about reviewing the play. Willie Taggart also missed the opportunity to challenge the call.
Florida State quickly went backwards with a false start penalty. They ended up settling for a field goal on the drive to make it 10-3 instead of potentially 10-7. Those were key points they missed.
