Why was the play not considered over at that point?



The same reason it takes 10 yards to get a first down.

If you consider him down, then why would a field goal be good? The ball would be dead, right! Good point, StrangeBrew.

College rule is stupid. You should have to be touched down on every play.

No. You just happened to ask a stupid question.

You think we have seen enough fake field goals over the years that everyone would know this rule.

have to say, there are quite a number of pricks on this board, who just lie in wait to pounce on anything. Grow up.

There are just as many posters who make a thread about the first thing that pops into their mind and before they: 1) search to see if similar topics have already been discussed, and 2) take one second to think logically before they post.

In regards to 1)...this was discussed several times after the game last night. These same 'pricks', as you call them, were not nearly so sarcastic when the question was first asked last night. The 100th time the question is asked? Excuse them if the sarcasm comes out.

Regarding 2)...do you honestly think...that if the placeholder was considered down at that point...that every fake field goal EVER would be not valid? (Not to mention every field goal and point after.) And that such would not have come up during the broadcast? I mean...really?

I'm truly amazed at this point at the sheer number of people who raised this very question in the last 18 hours. Trust me, the sarcasm has grown with every thread about this same subject...it's not just posters being pricks, it's posters being fed up with reading the same thing over and over and over.

It's just like the "no holding calls on Bama." It's an exception in the rule book.

Was Matt Flynn down in 2007? Was Fruege down in 2010? IS THE FRIGGIN PLAY BLOWN DEAD EVERY TIME THE HOLDER CATCHES THE BALL???????

I mean, it's not like this is even a rare play. LSU themselves has done it multiple times, and UF fans should also be familiar, since the last two times we've done it, they've been the victim.

. This is what I was telling my wife last night. How could the ball be dead when it is about to be kicked thru the upright? It's really a stupid question that the gators around here like to make a big deal of - this time and the fake back in 2010.
