Personally, I understand both sides of the issue, but hey, this was a blatant officiating error, acknowledged by the OSSAA board of directors....not a ref's judgment call, such as pass interference, holding, blocking in the back, etc.
Game has even been discussed on espn....for what it's worth, Barry Switzer said to replay the entire game, and get it settled on the field, correctly this time.

Oklahoma City Public Schools on Thursday asked a judge to order a replay of part or all of the disputed playoff football game between Douglass and Locust Grove high schools.
The school district is asking for a replay of either the final 64 seconds of the game, or the entire game.
The district wants the judge to issue a temporary restraining order prohibiting the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association from proceeding with the next playoff game until the judge can rule on its request for a replay.
