We’ve had two calls reviews that were reviewed and still incorrectly called. I swear I’ve seen better officiating in MS 2A without the aid of review
Total screw job

Will was stripped of the ball before arm going forward
Will was stripped of the ball before arm going forward
The defender never touched the ball. He hit his arm and the ball went forward. Never heard of that being a fumble.
We're going to get a really pretty letter from the SEC on Monday apologizing but reminding us we lost.
We gave the game away with our defensive coverage, but every single close call has gone to South Carolina tonight. I don't know how Will has had time to throw the ball with as little protection as he is getting. If they aren't trying to rush him they're standing there waiting for him to throw so they could knock it down because the blocker is not engaging them. You could see it plain as day on the replay of the last knock down pass the defense of lineman just stood there and waited for him to try to throw it, while the offensive player was not even pushing. But of course, whole reason we lost tonight is because of noodle arms
Ferrie is golden. At least we can depend on someone!
Since you are always making a smartass of yourself on here, the ball spiraled forward for 8 yards. Don’t think a fumble could spiral that far. Stevie wonder could have seen that but apparently you just have to have something to argue about. Have fun being a dubmass
We were screwed by our defense. The refs had a supporting role, but the lead actor was the D
Guys, it wasn't just that play. They put us behind the eight ball all night long. Every call that they could make against us they did except one just because they didn't see it.
That's because a receiver who goes out of bounds on his own is ineligible. He cannot re-establish himself inbounds.
So, that knife doesn’t cut both ways for DB’s also? Asking for many friends.
How do I make a smartass of myself? Examples please.
The cock defender hit Will’s arm before it went forward.
It does not. The defense is not expected to cover a receiver who runs out of bounds on his own. A receiver who does that is ineligible to receive a pass, and cannot be the first person to touch it.
Defenders have to be in bounds at the snap, but they can run out of bounds during the play. If they touch a fumbled ball or catch a pass while they are out of bounds, then the ball is out of bounds at that spot. If they establish themselves back in bounds, then they are in bounds and eligible to touch the ball.
What I could not find in the NCAA rule book was what it takes for a defender to establish themselves in bounds. It seems like it should be more than just picking up your out of bounds foot while the in bounds foot is still in contact with the ground, but maybe not? I believe in the NFL it takes both feet in bunds.
I basically reached the exact same dead end last night. There was no chance that I was buying that he’d reestablished himself, but I couldn’t find anything in writing that could confirm it either way.
Wouldn’t surprise me at all if the replay circus tent came to the same conclusion. Welp, can’t find anything in the rulebook so I guess we have to let it stand
it was a fumble. Doesn’t matter if the defender touched the BALL or not. The ball was dislodged from Will’s hand and he pushed the ball forward with his arm motion.
Was replying to Curby. Had been in the sauce a little too much and did what I said curby did. How ironic. Bourbon fog has lifted. My apologies to you both. I still think it was a pass though. Gotta give benefit of doubt for throwing a 10 yard spiral with your forearm.
I think all it takes in college, from what I read, is to be inbounds while not being out of bounds. So one foot down inbounds while he's no longer touching out of bounds means the defender is back in.
Until the Ref's are put before the media after every game for accountability or one gets fired for their incompetency, nothing will ever change.
