Looks like he has jersey to me. Not a horse collar.

Irrelevant.

From the NCAA rule book:

Horse Collar Tackle ARTICLE 15. All players are prohibited from grabbing the inside back collar of the shoulder pads or jersey, or the inside collar of the side of the shoulder pads or jersey, and immediately pulling the ball carrier down. This does not apply to a ball carrier, including a potential passer, who is inside the tackle box (Rule 2-34). Note that the tackle box disintegrates when the ball leaves it.

HC = pulling a player down from the back/neck area & not immediately releasing.

Regardless, I wasn't intent on re-hashing the call. Just adding to a "huge play" thread.
