1. Penn Wagers is one of, if not the most incompetent ref in college football

2. The ball should have been dead the second Armani Watts touched it as you can't advance a blocked FG that crosses the line of scrimmage.

yes you can. They teach them not to touch it because if you touch it first it becomes a live ball and it's like trying to pick up a fumble - lots of mistakes happen.

Additionally, if Rice touches it first the ball is dead and we get it from where it was kicked anyway, so he had to return it like 20 yards just to break even. But Watts was absolutely allowed to return that.
