Interestingly the Referee of this game was Matt Richards who actually started the season as a CJ for Steve Strimling's crew. At Week 4, Richards was swithced from CJ to Referee and Jay Edwards was switched from Referee to CJ without any explanation. I know Edwards had a rough first season as a Pac-12 White hat last year but switch a Referee out in the middle of the season is odd. Making changes like this on the fly causes situations like we saw Yesterday, where Richards is probably not as prepared as he could be because he is rushed into a role in the middle of a season. I am not saying if he had a full offseason to prepare as a Referee that he wouldn't have made this mistake, but I guarantee you it is way less likely.
Needless to say Richards will not be working a Bowl Game this season but he was highly unlikely to anyways. Pac-12 has always gone with NFL rules and avoided having first year Referees and first year Officials work Bowl Games.

Good chance that Kevin Mar can get a Bowl game...
