illegal. ODB would have had to CATCH the ball cleanly in a "block" situation.


This is from the interview in The Advocate about that play:

quote:

Funny thing is, Beckham was sent back there with a mind to being the last line of defense against a fake or to try to knock the ball down if it looked like it was just going to nudge over the crossbar. That’s legal, if not exactly sporting, considering LSU led 49-17 at the time.


quote:

“I was hoping it would go just above the crossbar so I could jump up and block it,” Beckham said
. “But it ended up working out for the better.”


The plan was to block it according to Beckham.
