When does possession start on a fumble recovery? Mond vs Brooks and SEC refs

According to SEC refs, possession started the millisecond Mond touches the ball with his knee on the ground after the fumble. Y considered this enough evidence to actually overturn the call on the field
Now fast forward
Two hands on the ball below is not considered possession, enough to actually overturn the call on the field again
How in the blue hell can both the above be true?

I've seen way too many say that two hands + knee does not = possession.
If not, what is?

Depends totally on what team(s) are involved

Glad we could beat both teams yesterday
Also the no safety call in the UT - UGA game was one of the worst calls in a hot minute

I’m still waiting to see the irrefutable video evidence the Bama player did indeed touch the ball. That’s the only way the call in the field of LSU removing the fumble can legit be overturned.
So where is it?

Same. There wasn't enough to overturn. Play should've stood.

The correct call is whichever goes against LSU.
The sec officials have shown this to be the rule.

1-the LSU call of saying Bama touching while out of bounds before LSU could possess..maybe. Still think him having both hands on it should trump dude touching it from out of bounds.
2- UGA safety. Still waiting on why the call “stands”. Dude was down and ball never got out of end zone.
20 cameras and people on replay with only the job of getting it right…they have to do better.

Have to wonder what those replay officials are looking at. It’s maddening how much they get wrong.

his knee is not down in this pic
ETA: then the Latu touches the ball (again before the knee is down) and the ball moves.

You do realize the knee in that screenshot is not Brooks’ knee? Brooks’ knees are out of the screenshot and touching the ground.

Watch the video replay, Brooks knee was down but iut of this frame. Then Bama player swatted at the ball.
Like OP said, what's the difference in the 2? Other than 1 overturned a pic in a game which would have sealed the LSU win.
The other overturned a fumble recovery and ked to a field goal that caused the game to need OT.

you can see his yellow pants under his leg in the foreground. his knee is behind his calf muscle.
Now look at the knee in the foreground. see that little yellow speck? that's his pants.

See this image, it's a few milliseconds after that image.

you're wrong.

Clearly, you need to watch the replay. I see two knees, neither of which are down.

My take with their rules is the lsu player had it in both hands, when the bama player swiped at it, the moment he touched the ball, play ended with lsu possession.

It is about manipulating the outcome. It is as simple as that. They "get away with it" because most people are hopelessly stupid.

But LSU had possession if/when the Gump touched it. That is indisputable. Either way it is LSU ball.
