My opinion was Maze floated the shite out of that pass Oh well, I would have probably missed Williams all together.

The call was made on the field. The replay booth confirmed. That's the harsh reality. I'll never bitch about it, and any Bama fan that does is just a pussy IMO.

If Reid had ripped the ball out at the end, it would have definitely been an incomplete pass because Williams didn't have control as he took it to the ground. Because Reid took the ball while Williams didn't have control, it was an INT. People are confusing simultaneous possession with two guys fighting for the ball. Simultaneous possession only occurs when both players firmly have control of the ball. Neither player had control of the ball until they hit the ground and Reid took control without the ball hitting the ground.

Yep. And you can't really expect a WR to be a very accurate passer. Bama was driving, and there was no reason to try something that risky against a turnover hungry defense.

There has to be an ulterior motive. Saban tried to sabotage Bama's chances to win last night. Right?



Saban and his assistants were just trying to do what all that came before him tried to do. They were just trying to win the game.

I agree but look closer at the play...he had to rush his throw due to pressure as well. That could also be the reason for the lofty throw.

You have to control the ball through the whole play for it to be a catch. The bama player lost control as he hit the ground and the LSU player caught it, therefore LSU ball... Take away the LSU player and the bama player loses the ball as he hits the ground, and it's an incomplete pass. Good call by the refs

Dude what?

Even when there's not enough evidence they still come out and say the play is confirmed. The ref never walks back out and says there wasn't enough evidence so the play stands as called.

The receiver has to have control of the ball through the play. He lost control either falling or when he hit the ground. Since the fell into the lap of the DB then it's an interception. Very clear.

wouldn't have mattered because Bama would have eventually missed the field goal

I think if it had been ruled on the field as a catch for Bama then it would have been reviewed and reversed to an incompletion. But the int ruling negated that and there wasn't a way they could overrule that and say it was a catch.

If he hadn't bobble the ball then it would have been a catch for Bama.

Reid left his guy and chased this receiver down. Just "boring" ole defensive play that people don't like to see and that doesn't win championships.

bad call vs good call

Video evidence showed conclusively, per the refs, that this was an INT.

Interception..BUT:

If the refs call that a catch on the field, they wouldn't overturn it to an INT. That's how bang-bang that play was


agreed!
had the ball been thrown correctly this conversation would never happen!

No, they say ruling stands.

When they see indisputable video evidence that they made the correct call, they say call is confirmed.

stuttgart, how could it have been an incompletion? The ball never hit the ground. I really can't even believe this is being argued at all. Watching it live it was hard to tell. Watching the replay, it could not be more crystal clear. He definately lost control BEFORE hitting the ground and the ball was never possessed by anyone on the ground until Reid had it firmly. Int, no doubt hence the "confirmation" of the call.
