| I saw that this morning. Good call by MI not to go full regalia last week*

| Do we know that the Iowa band was in full polyester? I know they skipped the halftime show

| I think the "offical clock" and the "stadium clock" thing is just a lost in translation thing.

| Lots of time left*

| No way you go for 2 there, way too early. Only go for 2 if it more or less ends the game.*

| That’s a TD if his teammate doesn’t tackle him*

| Saw that too. Though they’ve still scored too fast as is. *

| Man, that Ole Miss kicker just left that leg out there. *

| Not much worse than when your team commits a late hit when the drive was otherwise over*

| I think Wisconsin is probably still pretty shit. First half seemed pretty fluky*

| Of course I always root for bad things to happen to ND, but I’m fine if Wisconsin gets pounded

| While that's true and all, I'm glad we didn't play ND in Soldier Field to start the season

| I more or less agree

| The NBC one wasn't definitive too.

| I think maybe the camera shot of the clock was not quite synced to live action

|
| I hope this simplifies the scope of replay in the future.

|
| Tacitly throwing NBC under the bus.
Posted by tvillini
|
| Now show us the previous play from this angle:
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
| If they’re synced why did they show separate times? This is what they should be explaining*
Posted by CanHartlebHireSnider
|
| wow. MAC accepts the B1G's explanation

| Fucking pussies*

| @UCLA possibly our 3rd toughest game. They look good, JMU just churning out coaches*
Posted by OB25
|
| That’s a loss IMO. We’ve never played well out west*
Posted by bjl63
|
| It’s been 45 minutes, it’s pretty damning that no statement has been given *
Posted by OB25
|
| Most likely scenario is that it was judged to have taken 8.5 seconds

| Monday apology coming. As is tradition*
Posted by Chuck Woodaby
|
| Is there a chance the ball crossed the endline before it hit 0:00
Posted by Orangeillini
|
| The Athletic seems to think that the refs determined the ball was touched by an out of bounds player
Posted by ATL
|
| There is proof that did not happen*
Posted by bjl63
|
| But that didn’t happen. Not even possible with the trajectory of the ball.
Posted by OB25
|
| I don’t think the explanation is a good one, and I’m not sure that The Athletic does either.
Posted by ATL
|
| If that’s the rule, not a single person that covers the sport is mentioning it.
Posted by OB25
|
| And if that's the rule it's never once been enforced in the history of football at any level
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
| If I am standing inbounds in the end zone, I extend my arms out and catch a ball that is
Posted by ATL
|
| Hopefully UCLA-Cal is a banger to get my mind off of that travesty*
Posted by biclops
|
| ooo
Posted by ATL
|
| So the only other plausible explanation is the one roughy is saying, 00:00 isn’t 00:00
Posted by tvillini
|
| There has never, in the history of football, been a claim that tenths of a second exist
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
| If it exists then add it to the clock. Otherwise, 00:00 means it’s over-*
Posted by bjl63
|
| I think what we’ll hear is ‘it’s when the ball crosses the line’ and Hawk-Eye (which is Sony)…
Posted by tvillini
|
| The ball isn't out of bounds until it hits the ground or is touched*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
| This. They said the same on the broadcast. Clock didn’t stop until it hit WMU guys hands*
Posted by WhitmansFolly
|
| How can that be the rule? Ball could be catchable even after it crosses out of bounds?*
Posted by ECEIllinois
|
| I’m only going based on like punts… they’re out and stopped when they cross that barrier.
Posted by tvillini
|
| There is a very clear rule about when a ball is determined to be out of bounds
Posted by UIHuskie
|
| Cool. Then I’m corrected. I just know when a ball crosses the vertical plane in other instances…
Posted by tvillini
|
| You can't possibly believe this*
Posted by OrangeSox
|
| The rules are incredible inconsistent.
Posted by tvillini
|
| The rules analyst on nbc is confounded
Posted by ATL
|
| Look, I think like most people… the optics are terrible. The B1G stole a win from the little guys.

| Their RB Sheppard is good*

|
| Tulan'e front 7 is undoubtedly better than ours and they had their way with them*
Posted by bjl63
|
| That’s a bit too much grizzle, Tulane’s front 7 is not “undoubtedly” better than ours.*

|
| How can you be so sure of the premise?*
