Sack totals

I'm curious as to why the sack totals do not match up to what I saw live and on replay.  We clearly.had sacks by Simmons,  Lefau and Vasek.  Also had a give up by McCown on another run behind the line of scrimmage where Anthony Hill could clearly be given credit to a sack yet no credit was given.  What the hell is going on?

Hill is credited with a TFL, so maybe the stat guy thought it wasn't a passing play and credited Hill with a TFL instead of a sack?

College football and QB rushing stats are very weird in how they're scored by statisticians because sacks count toward rushing totals. IMO what would help clear this up is not counting "sack" as a rushing stat for QBs in college.
