The pylon non touchdown, then scoop n score.



I can't remember the last time that I saw a game swing so vividly on a blown call.

The thing is Oregon even had the game won again after that. Then they choked it by fumbling the ball again while icing the game.

It was the right call, the rule is just stupid and frequently ignored by the refs when a player catches the ball in the end zone.

Essentially, the pylon is only “out of bounds” in certain scenarios. When a player catches a pass standing in the end zone and part of his foot is touching the pylon it’s NEVER considered out of bounds. Only when a player is running into the end zone, and only if it isn’t the ball touching the pylon, is it considered equivalent to the out of bounds line.

It’s a silly, arbitrary rule
