I see this almost every weekend and it just happened in the egg bowl.

Guy dives for pileon and appears to get in… ref marks him out at the 1 yd line.

Replay shows to me that he scored a td but if that’s not conclusive I get it. However it’s definitely conclusive if he didn’t get in he’s out at the 1” line not the 1 yd line. Then they come out of replay and say it stands. Maybe it should stand that he didn’t score but the spot was obviously wrong. Why don’t they change it?

Exactly. If it wasn’t a touchdown then the ball was literally a football length from the goaline, not the 1 yard line

That is a good point that is never addressed. Ball should move up.

Fairly certain there's a rule that says a spot can't be reviewed unless it's for a first down or touchdown.

You are right. This happens all the time. Not just with pylon plays. It’s clear that the ball should be practically on the goal line and they place it at the one.
