    Ref Question

    If the ball hits the ground it would be live and treated like a fumble. Just like a pitch in the backfield. If it went forward and landed it is an incomplete illegal forward pass. Ball is dead. Enforce from the spot of the pass

    Ref Question

    If he’s playing the ball then he will be absolved of most contact. If he’s not, and he’s impeding the WR from getting back to the ball it’s a foul. Find the ball and you’re off the hook. Other than that how do you define what’s an “under thrown ball”. A back shoulder looks like an under throw...

    This is why! A different perspective

    He lost a football game, and not because of one call or 3 calls. How is his life being negatively shaped by this event?

    This is why! A different perspective

    Your perception is your reality. If you have the perception that it’s always against you, then the first thing that happens will confirm that narrative for you. ESL has been an unbelievablely successful program, im sure in their runs they’ve benefited from calls as well. Other schools have...

    This is why! A different perspective

    If the worst mistake by another person this young man experiences is this, then he’ll have had a pretty great life. Part of the benefit of athletics is how to deal with adversity, especially when it’s out of your own control. So while it sucks, the reality is it was a mistake that may or may...

    This is why! A different perspective

    It’s a reality. The players aren’t perfect, the refs aren’t perfect. Just like the likelihood of missing a block on a great defender goes up as does the likelihood of an official not getting that call right every time.

    This is why! A different perspective

    This call gets missed every Saturday and Sunday with 2 officials on the sideline. The difference is replay comes in and fixes it. It’s an incredibly tough call to get right. Full speed, watching a ball come in and his foot touches that close for a quarter of a second. It’s a 50/50 with one guy...

    End of CG - Huntley Game

    I feel ya Crusader. It doesn’t feel comfortable saying anything that isn’t supporting them when most everyone else against us when the heat is on. I probably could have been kinder in my wording. In general I don’t think it’s fair to get on officials for judgement calls. Most officials would...

    End of CG - Huntley Game

    I suspect the line judge was able to put it together, which is impressive given what happened to him I suppose. End of the day they got it right and that’s all that matters but not a good way to get there that’s for sure

    End of CG - Huntley Game

    Nailed it stripes. At no point should the wing be there during live ball action. And then it allows for the backjudge to think he should be ruling and signaling on a pylon play that he shouldn’t have an opinion on. There’s really no defense for bad mechanics like this

    Ref question

    This couldn’t be more false. Your description is not even close to the rule. I award you no points and request you don’t post in response to rules questions again. Please refer to stripes post for the correct answer to this question

    End of CG - Huntley Game

    I’m physically ill by how this play was officiated

    Two referee questions from plays from games this weekend

    New rule in 2023 in NCAA, punter doesn’t have the same protection if they’re leaving their original position laterally or the ball goes over their head. They’re still defenseless in terms of tgt but not roughing

    Blocked Field Goal Attempt & Ruling Question

    For sure. That’s a test question play, it’s not supposed to happen in real life 😝

    Blocked Field Goal Attempt & Ruling Question

    More equivalent to a fumble since the ball is live and will be next snapped from the dead ball spot and not the previous spot.
