Okay, I know the PP interception is well... :beatdeadhorse: but now its being said that earlier in the play that Peterson went out of bounds and that he wouldn't be allowed to touch the ball after that....so

1) Did he really go out of bounds anytime before the INT?

2) If so, does that rule apply to the defender?

If so, it wasn't the official's reason for the ruling. So those trying to make that an excuse need to STFU.

And FWIW, and what the Alabama fans won't tell you, is EVEN IF Jones touched the ball, it is illegal touching because he was out of bounds and did not re-establish himself on the playing field.

That's a penalty, if true (although the video clearly shows he never touched the ball).
