Just one of dozens of missed calls in any given ballgame. At least it had no direct affect on the play.

As would any fan of the team that got burned by it? Or let me guess you are one of the non-fanatical fans that just wants the game called fairly no matter what - right? LOL
The rules exist for valid reasons and in an ideal world would be enforced.
It's always "fun" when your team benefits from a blown call but inevitably it will also come around to bite you in the arse.
If it were up to me yes, the games would just be called properly.

I heard that Freeze was in attendance at Malzahn's seminar.....he was disguised as a girl's basketball coach.

im actually on your side here. hes clearly 3 to 4 yards past the line but it was hardly some egregious mistake by the officials and a non issue

Unless the lineman is interfering with the pass he should be able to be anywhere on the field he wants to be. If the only reason you have for opposing the lineman downfield is that it interferes with the dbs read key then it's asinine. There is a reason safeties are called safeties and not linebackers. i think they should do away with the rule entirely. Then the line judge can focus on real penalties like holding. Or they can just keep ignoring it which is fine by me.
That's no rain, Rebel. That's Johnny Vaught shaking it out on you.
If the only reason for tackle is to impede the offensive player with possession of the ball, why can't this be achieved by pulling his flags?
Jeeze.

Safety was reading Kelly the whole time.
Mea Culpa
I remember seeing the play different but after rewatching that particular play the safety was doing just as you said.
The play itself by design is as I talked about earlier but in this particular instance was a blown coverage by the corner.
The other times I saw it the safety was deeper and backed up the corner until the QB came to the line.
In this instance I'm going with Bama blew the coverage regardless.

Don't know why I'm saying this again.. he left the receiver before the lineman was fully beyond the 3 yard mark:
Pointed this out last night in another thread...in so many words. This was nothing more than a failure of communication between the CB and S.

2nd, if any part of the QB crosses the line of scrimmage and then he throws it, it is a penalty. What I don't get is how the tip of the ball srosses the plane and it's a TD, a to touches the white and it's OOB, a helmet crosses the the LOS and it's offside, yet a QB can be 3/4 past the LOS and isn't considered past the LOS. It's just inconsistent.
partially agree. A better solution might be that the ball must leave the QB's hand prior to passing the line of scrimmage. Though this might be a bit much to ask of a side judge

You can't actually see coker in the first view. If you watch the second view he throws the ball at the same time kelly plants his right foot just shy of the 41 as he turns. The 41 was 3 yards, no missed penalty. At least his right foot and leg were still behind. Why are people reaching on this? Nothing like the ole miss play, wasnt a qb run/pass, and kelly was not too far.

Holy shite. I'll repeat this in the 3rd thread about this play: #70 is only 3 yards downfield when the ball is released.
I don't know how you do math in Alabama but the line of scrimmage is the 38 and #70 is 3 yards past the 40 when the ball is released. That adds up to 5 where I come from.

Not that it matters, but it's actually 4, Stevie Wonder.

quote:los is just shy of the 38, so 3 yards is just shy of the 41. Ball is already in the air in that shot, and you can see kellys right foot is exactly on the 3 yard mark. Perfectly executed within the rules as they stand. Now if he were ingaged with an elligible defensive receiver downfield that would be offensive pass interferrence, and if he had been fully past 3 yards that would have been inelligble receiver down field. Both of those things happened on the ole miss play
Right at three yards/a little over three yards from the line of scrimmage. Also keep in mind the ball is already in the air so he might have been in allowable area when the ball was actually thrown

quote:more like 5+ when the ball was thrown. I'm actually fine with them doing this blatantly (we didn't deserve to win with all the mistakes), its just going to get the rule changed to 1 yard
es clearly 3 to 4 yards past the line
