No, I’m saying he botched the part where he was supposed to throw a flag and call a penalty that would have subsequently been declined.
Again, more subjectivity. We don’t know 100% for sure it would’ve been declined so it should have been flagged and the opportunity presented.
You’re essentially arguing that it’d be ok for a ref to call PI but not follow through on the review and potential ejection based on how the rule is written because the official just didn’t feel like it.

No, the only thing I’m arguing is that the spot was correct, by rule. You’ve interjected the arguments over subjectivity.
The only question that needs to be answered is whether or not the UT player pulled his teammate. If the answer is yes, then the ball was properly spotted.

The rule says you cannot assist a teammate by pulling. It does not say forward progress is per se stopped once a teammate starts pulling. Ignoring the sheer ridiculousness of saying you can shove your teammate forward but can’t pull him, I still see no basis on that play for saying forward progress was stopped. The ref, however, could have thrown a penalty by that silly rule.

Ref didn't throw the flag so no foul occurred. Let's get rid of that argument and look at his actual physical movement.

Can’t do that without taking into account how his physical movement is being assisted by a teammate.

Exactly. Tennessee fans are overlooking that their coaches blew the game.

Wrong.

I did and it doesn't matter because that isn't a foul in the refs eyes. So that means the player was moving on his own.

Didn’t watch the game, was that penalty called on that play?

Nope - it would’ve been called a TD, penalty would’ve been assessed and TN would be kicking the FG on 4th down.

In fairness, the penalty shouldn’t have been called because the ref ruled forward progress had been stopped (erroneously in my view).

If he was “assisting” his physical movement, then forward progress could not have yet been stopped.

By your logic, linemen pushing a QB or RB across the line is illegal as well.
The Aggiest response of all Aggie responses. The OP CLEARLY POSTED THE RULE. Can't assume you're illiterate because you typed a response. At least I assume it was you doing the typing.
Only conclusion you're just a dumbass Aggie.

No, ball is dead when forward progress is in question, per section 1, article 3, part a of the rulebook.
Posted on 12/30/21 at 9:46 pm to Tuscaloosa
False. Forward progress wasn’t in question.

OP is definitely confused by this. If this play happened at midfield, the pulling penalty was called, forward progress wasn’t blown dead, then forward progress hasn’t ended lol
The UT player could have ran another 10 yards in this scenario, fumbled, and turned the ball over. Because his forward progress continued despite the penalty

It clearly was, as evidenced by the official marking the spot and it being confirmed by replay.

I’ve read the rule you posted and nowhere does it say “ball is dead when forward progress is in question”. Or did you only post part of the rule?
Posted on 12/30/21 at 9:49 pm to Tuscaloosa
Not under your stipulation of the penalty my guy. You’re talking out of your arse at this point about hypotheticals. Take the L.
