September 13, 20223 yr 2 minutes ago, BB65 said: That to me is why you get intentional grounding. Right...but if there's a receiver in the area it doesn't get called, and if the ball is deflected it can be argued that it would have been near a receiver if it hadn't been deflected. But he was down and competent / reputable officials would have seen that and ruled it a safety
September 13, 20223 yr 8 minutes ago, BB65 said: Because I have seen replay used to confirm grounding outside the end zone but that could have been NFL and not NCAA Evidently you can't review whether a QB is down in the end zone either You can always review the spot of the ball, including spot of fouls. They weren't confirm grounding. They were probably confirming the yard line or in/out of endzone. Edited September 13, 20223 yr by JBJ

I took as the number one rule a pretty simple one: Don't call what you don't see. Argue, exemplify, whatever you like, but if you don't see it, don't call it. Maybe no one else in the crew saw, either, but that's a decision for after the play.

His shin was down, and I'm not convinced something other than his left hand never touched the turf before he "threw" the ball. But I don't see how you can call grounding if the ball is deflected by a defender...even though that play literally defines a desperate attempt to avoid a sack/safety. And look how close Ovie came to catching the tip...they might still be figuring out how to fuck Texas if he had caught that... The NFL rule is that a QB already affected by a defender before starting his throwing motion is fully responsible for the ball regardless. NCAA isn't as clear. Edited September 13, 20223 yr by JBJ

September 13, 20223 yr Beyond the fact that nothing from the game is going to change, I'm not sure why so many people are arguing intentional grounding or not. He was sacked. Full stop. Whether or not a player is downed is 100% reviewable, and they absolutely missed it. Attribute it to fuckery, incompetence, or whatever the fuck else you want. It was a play that should have resulted in two points and a free kick. Edited September 13, 20223 yr by Waterboarder OU Sucks
September 13, 20223 yr It’s kinda funny because the letter of the law is one thing, but the rule itself was created to prevent exactly what Bryce did. Starting tomorrow, I’m going to stop being mad about it. But I plan on being mad about the non-holding and non-face mask for quite a while. Those seemed kinda intentional. Big 12ish. This conference is the cesspool.
September 13, 20223 yr On a different note what do y’all think is going happen once Texas (the villain) and OU (the darling) leave B12. Will the B12 refs find replacements for these roles or will they actually just try to call it fairly? If the former which left behind team is most likely to be the new team the refs try to fuck game in and game out?
September 13, 20223 yr 54 minutes ago, Dennis Taylor said: Are you a cop,uhh I mean ref? You have to tell us if you are No but Holiday Inn and a fuck load of the "whats the call" series as a kid. I'm pretty sure it's technically grounding. The no judgement necessary type of technical. The throw would have ended when touched by DMO's helmet. There's bound to be a clarification letter from years' past on this but it's not in the Rules themselves or Interpretations. It is kind of in the NFL Rules but clearly stated in the NFL Casebook: NFL 3-22-4-1 "...If a Team B player contacts the passer or the ball before forwards movement [of the arm] begins, the direction of the pass is the responsibility of the passer, and grounding rules apply." Edited September 13, 20223 yr by JBJ
September 13, 20223 yr So shin, hand, forearm, all down in the endzone and not a safety. And holding by the offensive line in the endzone and no call for the safety. But somehow they found a way to imagine two phantom calls to fuck over Texas. Based on this video a safety should never get called again as it simply doesn’t exist.
September 13, 20223 yr In my scenario the intentional grounding should have been called so the ruling would have already been made. The replay would be confirming what was ruled is correct. I interpret that ruling to be calling intentional grounding as a result of what is seen in replay. Are you trying to rig a game? No? Then shut the fuck up! /big12 officiating

But somehow they found a way to imagine two phantom calls to fuck over Texas. Based on this video a safety should never get called again as it simply doesn’t exist. This is one reason why I'd like for all refs to wear hat cams, if for no other reason than for when they're reviewed by their higherups to get a good idea of where they were looking & what they were seeing. It's be even better if they could all be shown on TV for viewers to see, but maybe that's too much. Replay can help with a lot of things but the question of "why was/wasn't this called?" could be cleared up if you see from their perspective that there was a body in the way or they were looking at a different spot than everyone is yelling about or something else. That said, replay should have been able to easily see that his calf was down with the ball in his hand, I saw it after the first replay of it that showed him down. How can replay officials look at that & not see it after however long they had to look at it? Awful.

It was originally roughing the passer and targeting.

September 13, 20223 yr If the ball had bounced off the helmet into the waiting arms of a Texas player for a touchdown, you know they would have reviewed whether he was down for the safety.
September 13, 20223 yr Why can’t there be challenge flags for no calls? Or wrong calls. It’s mind boggling that millions of people can easily see the correct call on TV and the refs on field and in booth can’t? A school should be able to ask for a booth review so the correct call could be made. It shouldn’t matter a call was not made on the field

September 13, 20223 yr This is off topic, but chew on this. If an illegally grounded ball is caught by an eligible receiver on offense, it can't be advanced.

September 18, 20223 yr Watching the officials reaction and discussing it with Sark, I don't think they understood the call either. How can a fucking sack be a "defenseless" player when he's still holding onto the ball? It was still a bad call if it was a "helmet to helmet" call but surely this had to be miscommunication from the review booth.
