This gets old. You can YouTube the play and see he's down, not once, but twice. First time by lower leg, then again after he rolls over the tackler by his non-throwing arm.

It was a shitty, shitty call. Why some people feel the need to explain it away just fascinates me. In the same way I'm fascinated by an irritating child.



I took your advice and did that and you are indeed correct. Down by lower leg and wrist. That hairsplitting shite cost LSU a 7 OT loss at aTm.

One of your other respondents claimed that if he was down then it is Bama ball 1st and 10 due to a late hit. I believe that ruling would be a dead ball personal foul and at worst UT penalized on the kick.

That would be correct.

It's not a turnover where the ball exchanges hands during the play.

I'm not 100% sure on the rule here, but they certainly weren't thinking that during the review yesterday when it was initially a roughing call.
