Garrett Wilson Ohio State false start

The referees on Saturday night’s Big Ten Championship Game somehow missed an obvious false start on what turned out to be Ohio State’s go-ahead touchdown in the third quarter.

Just before Justin Fields threw a 16-yard touchdown pass to K.J. Hill, Garrett Wilson lost his footing and completely moved.

Badgers fans have a serious gripe here. Garrett Wilson clearly…well, you see it. How the official looks RIGHT AT IT doesn't see this I have no idea pic.twitter.com/fL7oTj9N81

Ohio State should have been pushed back five yards, but the refs missed it and didn’t call it.

Ohio State ended up taking a 24-21 lead on the play. After falling behind 14-0 and 21-7 at halftime, the Buckeyes stormed back in the second half and began dominating Wisconsin, scoring 24 straight points as of early in the fourth quarter.
