I'd say 1114 didn't intentionally leave their arm on the rack so the tube should of counted.
But the ruling stands, 1732, 67, 48 win over 1114, 1523, 469, 30-10

You might have missed my earlier post that stated that the weight of the tube was not supported by the leg like it was stated in the rules and even pointed out at Kickoff. It was supported by the stinger and the plate on the end of the leg, thus not legally scored.

I'd hate to see a relationship between two teams be ruined because of one instance. If a team wants to win, that's fine. You get one chance to win. You can fix an arm anytime.
That's just how I feel...
