On the Hunter call to review, I thought it would be targeting

Hunter was completely helpless in the defenders grasp, in the air, and he intentionally spiked his body into the turf.
Should have ejected him and given us 15 yards, it certainly was not a fumble....unless you can make forward progress dangling from the air.

you can tell the white hats are being told to use forward progress as a cop out for risky calls. they did the same with ole miss and the fumble for TD for Tenn

That wouldn't be targeting. Personal foul/unnecessary roughness, yes.
We got a break on that. It was definitely a fumble.

I so enjoy this BS.
White Hats had no call on the play .....That's emotion, not careful thought.
Fumble on Hunter .....That's listening to the idiots announcing the game filling the heads of viewers like the sheep that they are. No wonder Democrats get a lot of stupid votes. Emphasis on the word stupid.
Field Officials ruled fumble on Hunter. Field Officials are taught to swallow their whistles and let the play continue. That does not make the play ......The play ends when the ball is officially down.
Hunter is hit, lifted off the ground, turned and being driven to the ground. Forward Progress ended when Hunter was lifted off the ground intentionally ...... He's no longer in control to advance the ball and he's been turned ...away from the LOS.
Review club drinking cocktails upstairs and in Birmingham see the exact same thing ...End of play, no fumble.
But because the biggest idiot in the announcer's booth tells you what to think ......it's a fumble. Not hardly.

Try every officiating board out there with an NCAA rules discussion.......Everyone agrees ...Forward Progress stopped.
No polling

It was a fumble.
Not even close. We would have been seriously pissed.

Agreed. Only way it’s not is if a ref blew it dead beforehand.
We got the benefit of the doubt then. I personally haven’t lost any sleep over it. Especially after that drive was extended three times after Arkansas was short three straight third downs.

I believe play is instantly dead when a defender starts those suplex moves on a guy. I was surprised they didn’t get a personal foul call on that. So, it was technically dead when that started.

Replay booth agreed with us ....
Too bad the arm chair quarterback club was busy doing wrist curls at the time.

Hunter had forward progress. Just like this play that happened later that wasn’t reviewed or mentioned.

That’s the speculation I’m reading as well.

Derrick Brown did a UCF running back much worse. He basically picked him up and slammed him on his head. No penalty. I really don’t think it’s illegal just discouraged.

They didn't talk about that one b/c Arkansas recovered it. Now if Auburn would have recovered it but they said it was Arky ball then nearly every Auburn fan on this forum would have been pissed. I know if I was an Arky fan on the Hunter NonFumble/Fumble I would be pissed too b/c in my view it was a fumble.

True. But it was 3rd and 9 instead of 3 and 15. KJ got the first down the next play with the help of a block from the back judge.

The line judge blew it dead. He comes in with his fist up signaling 4th down. Then
the kid slammed Hunter and he fumbled during that slam.

I think last year was the first year it was actually a penalty, but I may be wrong. I believe we had one two games ago where the other team got called for the penalty.

Rule implemented several years ago, makes the Line Judge whistle or signal an impossible excuse.
If the action is considered continual, not ball dead. In the act of tackling, should the whistle blow or a signal be made, an instantaneous fumble occurs followed by an immediate recovery of the fumble…THE WHISTLE OR SIGNAL IS IGNORED.
The replay booth determined that forward progress was stopped and Hunter had no power to continue his run.
No fumble afterwards.
And yes, I disagree with the whistle, signal rule. Only used in the NCAA when replay is active.

I didn't realize that. Apparently it's a new rule. When a player is lifted off the ground, the play is automatically dead.
quote:
As for the specific play, Pittman said he was informed because the Auburn ball-carrier – Jarquez Hunter – was lifted off the ground on the tackle that it could not be ruled a fumble.
“They said the ball-carrier was picked up,” Pittman shared postgame, “which meant it couldn't be a fumble.”

I guess it's about player safety.
