If the reverse had happened and they call trainers out immediately and Cooke was fine afte 30 seconds, the Pollard misses two LaSalle scores and UD turns it over before Archie could get Cooke back in, Archie would be rightfully livid. We fans are blind by not knowing the rules. Not the refs (now if we want to discuss the inconsistency in how the first half and second half were officiated, I would agree).

Those refs were awful.(.) My comment was tongue in cheek. But really, at what point (read "how long") must a player scream in agony before a referee feels it's serious? What a ridiculous rule...
