re: LSU 7 @ Alabama 8 Final - SECN+

This is the actual rule

quote:

---

NCAA Rule 7, Section 11 (p) : In running the last half of the distance from home plate to first base while the ball is being fielded to first base, the batter-runner runs outside the 3-foot restraining line or inside the foul line and, in so doing, interferes with the fielder taking the throw at first base, except that the batter may go outside these lines to avoid a fielder attempting to field a batted ball

He didn’t interfere with the throw to first regardless of being outside the running lane. That’s why it wasn’t interference

Being outside the running lane doesn’t automatically make it interference
