re: Question concering Monds knee down?

That’s just simply not true. He never had possession. It was a mishandled snap.

A live ball

How many fumbles have you seen blown dead once a player on the ground touches it?

He picked the ball up as his knee was going up. The ball was even moving as he grabbed it. When he has possession of the ball, there is space between his knee and the ground

The announcers and review officials see what they want to see.

Touching the ball while knee down...play over

What happened after? Did the clock run or did A&M have a time out and used it? Otherwise they couldn't stop the clock except for an incomplete pass. The refs either didn't see the eligible formation or just didn't want to call it. That would seem to have been a penalty on A&M and I think there was supposed to be a 10 second run off and end the game.
