Wisconsin wideout airs frustration about overturned touchdown
Jazz Peavy thought he had the game won.
Can you blame him? In the final minute on Saturday, it appeared that Peavy hauled in the game-winning touchdown to beat Northwestern.
When he went to the sidelines following his catch, he didn’t even bother looking up at the video board.
Wisconsin WR Jazz Peavy said he had "no doubt" he made that TD catch. Didn't even watch the replay because he was so certain he caught it.

But the call was overturned. Peavy’s touchdown was taken away and Wisconsin wasn’t able to get into the end zone again. The 13-7 loss to Northwestern spoiled what could’ve been a memorable senior day moment.
Peavy took to Twitter to air his frustrations with the ruling that he “didn’t complete the catch.”

The pictures don’t show the whole story, obviously. Replay showed that the ball might’ve shifted, but whether or not he had already locked up possession of the ball is a different story.
Peavy definitely has a worthy gripe.
