I thought you had to put your hand over your head to signal fair catch. He clearly didn't do that. Does anyone know the actual rule as to what is the appropriate fair catch signal? Because it surely wasn't explained during the game.

i think i saw something about that in the NFL a while back... not sure about NCAA, but yeah you have to waive your hand above your head.

The gump's hand never got above his shoulder pad.

He waved his hand off to his right side and relatively early. I thought your hand had to be over your head. Commentator said they asked their replay/officiating/penalty expert about the signal and he said it was a legal signal and a good penalty call.
