re: Re-watching the Iron Bowl, and this call was complete BS

No way the auburn return man should have been flagged for delay of game when he waved off his teammates on the punt. He used both arms, in a crossing motion, and never raised either arm or hand above his head which I believe is still required for a fair catch signal.

Auburn fans are perfectly capable of fabricating rules without your help.

When in doubt...

"ARTICLE 2. No Team B player shall carry a caught or recovered ball more than
two steps in any direction after any Team B player gives a valid or invalid fair
catch signal (A.R. 6-5-2-I-III).
PENALTY—Dead-ball foul. Five yards from the succeeding spot [S7 and
S21].
