The first down stick is slightly bent in that picture, and the camera angle is slightly off. A statement came out saying that the very nose of the football was touching the stick, I'll trust their judgement.

If the ball is touching the stick, no matter what the camera angle there will be no light showing between the ball and the stick. Unless maybe the laws of physics are different at Auburn.

Don't fret. We'll make sure they have no shot at the trophy when they come to BR. I do agree it gets old seeing them win after giving up 50 points.

The MSU players had a great vantage point and they did not react as if the ball was touching the stick.

They don't place the ball on the chain, it's placed off to one side. Therefore, the nose of the ball will never touch the stick. As far as the angles and all that other shite there is no way to know for sure unless you are standing over the ball or perpendicular to the chain. There is no way for us to know for sure from the camera positions. I think it could have gone either way from what I saw.
