I heard "Inadvertent Fair Catch Signal". Which to me says " Ref is a Dumba$$"

What they said on TV was that the ref claimed it was an "Improper fair catch signal",, whatever the hell that is.....Regardless, they F***ed up on a play that should have led a a pretty decent return.

Ref said “Invalid fair catch”—which carries a 5 yard penalty. They did not enforce a penalty

I heard "Inadvertent Fair Catch Signal" over the radio broadcast, as well.

Guy in green was blazes in 2003-2005

im not sure who you heard that from, but it definetely was NOT the ref. it was with 5:55 left in the game. 3 hours and 5 minutes into the recording. ive watched it again, just to make sure.
the ref 100% sure says "Invalid Fair Catch Signal."--however, they did not give the penalty yards (nor throw the flag) that should come with that call

haha...thats fair. regardless of the words, its clear that he blew it

The refs couldn't openly say they blew it.

Watched the replay. Wow officials blew that one. Even announcers agreed.

If it is who I am thinking he used to post on here.

So anyhow, I was at Sam's Club yesterday and counted several that had on UAB gear.

This was way out of the norm for what I normally see out & about.
