Do you think this was a fumble? I had Vol fans at work swear that it was not a fumble because his finger tips touching the ball is possession. That is crazy.

yes...when the runner drops the ball, that is called a fumble in American football.

I hope you have a point beyond this question. Or an appointment with a credentialed ophthalmic practitioner.

YEA.

Doesn't the TD line extend OOB ? If so why try to hit the pylon.

I swear I heard last year it does, IMO it shouldn't , hell you could get a long jumper in that case , run him to the OOB line and allow him to jump 5 yards on every play.

It's not a fumble. Bad angle here, but the right side of the ball carrier's body had broken the plane of the sideline prior to losing control of the ball, meaning he was out of bounds and down before losing control.

Oregon dismantled UT. I now fully expect them to win the NC.
