@CFB_Rules I think?Don't we have a member with ref experience? I'd love to hear from him.
And an even bigger call now.

It's not the number, it's the direction (upfield)The NCAA rule makes no reference whatsoever to the number of steps a player must take.
Do you have the rule handy to share?The NCAA rule makes no reference whatsoever to the number of steps a player must take.
Sort of means call on field should stand, correct?Reading the comments on the incomplete/fumble.... some of you are 100% convinced that it’s obviously a catch and fumble. Others are 100% convinced it’s obviously incomplete.
Same play, such opposite views, everyone fully convinced that it’s “obvious”.
Also not part of the article (rule).It's not the number, it's the direction (upfield)
Right. If it was called incomplete on the field, you could understand not overruling the call. But it was ruled a fumble and TD. To overrule a TD based on a replay that shows a catch and three or four steps is inexcusable.They called it a catch in real time.
if that is the rule, that is nonsensical.It's not the number, it's the direction (upfield)
It’s not clear any of us has solid comprehension of the rule, so I’m not inferring too much into disagreement over the call.Sort of means call on field should stand, correct?
It wasn't being bobbled, it was in his hands, he took at least three steps. Even if "a football move" is complicated, that call wasn't. It's not like he was going to the ground and it was unclear.just do away with the "football move" nonsensical bullshit; he caught it, clearly had possession, did not bobble it, had it knocked out, fumble.
Just idiotic to complicate a simple thing.
Doesn’t make sense. Worried about a safety?I'm a little surprised they didn't go for 2 there.
Yah why would you not?I'm a little surprised they didn't go for 2 there.
Safety isnt playing press on a slot receiver there unless he has serious man coverage skills (which college safeties really don’t). If he tries it, that play could be 5-6 yards open rather than 1-2.Waaaaaay too much cushion
That would be a legitimately weird concern. That might have just been a mistake by Ryan Day.Doesn’t make sense. Worried about a safety?
So Clemson needs a TD to take the lead again?Doesn’t make sense. Worried about a safety?
Came to post this. Zero upside in an extra point.I barely watch college football, but is there a reason OSU didn't go for 2 there?
Yeah, it was a bad joke. Only reason I can think of is that it ensures another TD and extra point requires Clemson to score twice. Maybe there is some math that makes that a thing. Two field goals makes it 8 too but not really enough time to make that realistically a thing I don’t believe.That would be a legitimately weird concern. That might have just been a mistake by Ryan Day.
Disagree. If you score a TD again it's a 2 score gameCame to post this. Zero upside in an extra point.
