RULE 3
Ball Declared Dead
ARTICLE 3. A live ball becomes dead and an official shall sound his whistle
or declare it dead:
a. When it goes out of bounds other than a kick that scores a field goal after
touching the uprights or crossbar, when a ball carrier is out of bounds,

When in question, the ball is dead (A.R. 4-2-1-II).
b. When any part of the ball carrier’s body, except his hand or foot, touches
the ground or when the ball carrier is tackled or otherwise falls and loses

body, except his hand or foot [Exception: The ball remains alive when
an offensive player has simulated a kick or is in position to kick the ball
held for a place kick by a teammate. The ball may be kicked, passed or
advanced by rule] (A.R. 4-1-3-I).
c. When a touchdown, touchback, safety, field goal or successful try
occurs; or when an unsuccessful field-goal attempt that has crossed the
neutral zone and is then untouched by Team B, lands in Team B’s end
zone or out of bounds (A.R. 6-3-9-I).
d. When, during a try, a dead-ball rule applies (Rule 8-3-2-d-5).
e. When a player of the kicking team catches or recovers any free kick or
a scrimmage kick that has crossed the neutral zone (A.R. 4-1-3-II).

or recovered by any player after a valid or invalid fair-catch signal; or
when an invalid fair-catch signal is made after a catch or recovery by
Team B (Rules 2-7-1, 2-7-2 and 2-7-3).
h. When a return kick or scrimmage kick beyond the neutral zone is
made.
i. When a forward pass strikes the ground.
j. When, before a change of team possession on fourth down or a try, a
Team A fumble is caught or recovered by a Team A player other than the
fumbler (Rules 7-2-2-a and -b and 8-3-2-d-5).

wasnt' a fumble. it was a skip-pass. look it up, Art. 30(b)(6).
Posted on 10/9/10 at 11:37 pm to joshnorris14
seems that the exceptions are only for a fumble, not a backwards pass..
did they give the holder credit for a fumble?

A pass interference call on a pass that landed 10 yards out of bounds gave you 4 points.

It wasn't a "pass" or a "fumble"
It was a toss/lateral....as in a toss sweep
It was a running play
Go find some other rule/exception to help you feel like you got robbed
You're the first butthurt UF fan I've seen....everyone else has owned up to losing and congratulated us on a hard fought victory

Was it ruled a fumble on the field? I don't recall them throwing the marker.
Posted on 10/9/10 at 11:57 pm to joshnorris14
What about a QB being tackled in the end zone? That one bothered me

It wasn't a pass. It was a lateral. Therefore, none of this is relevant, and you are stupid.

That would be great if that was a fumble.
But a backwards pass, is a backwards pass...
