"We believe that our officials made the best call that they could under the circumstances, given the following three reasons:
1) Their lives were potentially in jeopardy.
2) A riot may have broken out at Autzen stadium and everyone could have been in danger; and most importantly
3) Their pay is subsidized by Phil Knight.
There are things that are bigger than the Pac 10 and even college football. These men had their families to consider. Beyond this, we support and appreciate their commitment to position our conference and their school for the best possible BCS pay-outs available.
For these reasons, we at the Pac 10 fully support the officials' game-deciding decisions to disregard the truth."
