The spot is a completely different debate. I am really just curious about what actually is a first down measurement. Really just for my own personal knowledge. I am not crying, whining or moaning. Gamecocks beat us. I got it. I just want to know what the actual rule is. The rule I posted earlier in this thread speaks of the poles and no mention of the shite that Gary Danielson was spewing.

I'm just relieved that all is well in Athens.

I completely understand this. As has been mentioned in this thread, a much more egregious example of this gave Michigan a first down in the 2012/13 Outback Bowl. I always thought that the ball had to nose PAST the inside of the pole. If the chains themselves are the mark, it's good to know.
