Given the camera angle, I don't think we can say what was happening to their left prior to them putting the blocker up. Regardless, that deserves a 3 point penalty, not a Technical - from what we can see on the video, they were moving towards their auto line. I don't think one brief instance of a couple of seconds constitutes "
continuous or repeated violations" to qualify for a technical. Given the score results, it does look like the refs missed that single 3 point penalty (there's a lot going on the field, the nearby refs may have been focused on another area)...but as it was 70-87, 3 points wouldn't have made a difference.
