re: Beckham fumble????

I posted this yesterday cause someone was blaming the refs.

I think it's a good rule. (Obviously) but seriously you should be able to overturn a bad call if its obvious.

And most players are told to go for the ball if it is out no matter what. This isn't a rule that no coaches or players know about.

Here is the official rule statement from NCAA Rulebook on the fumble:

Rule 12 Section 3-D

Live ball ruled dead in possession of a ball carrier when the clear recovery of a loose ball occurs in the immediate continuing action after the loose ball.

1. If the ball is ruled dead and the replay official does not have indisputable video evidence as to which team recovers, the dead-ball ruling stands.

2. If the replay official rules that the ball was not dead, it belongs to the recovering team at the spot of the recovery and any advance is nullified.
