The hog pile call

The ball is loose and the hog pile effect is on! We, the fans know something is going to be called, after all, player's feet are facing the ceiling and arms are fighting fiercely for that orange pumpkin. But what is the right call? Its almost like a moment where the referees are so taken back by the roll, scramble, and confusion, that they just "freeze" and really don't know what to call. Then the fans explode and that was the reason they lost the game! I really feel for the refs at this moment as sometimes, IMO, the right call is no call, in a no win situation. The coaches scream for a time out, but there is none to be had as there is no clear possession. It is a fantastic moment and one that I look forward to each and every game!
