re: 2 things that still have me pissed off

The ball can touch the ground … it’s if he had control during impact.
He had consistent control of the ball, even as and after it hit the ground.
More importantly, the referee on the field ruled he had possession. At worst, it was inconclusive on replay and you MUST defer to the rule on the field.
It was an egregious overturn, plain and simple.
Refs did an AWEFUL job tonight.

Horrific calls. Clearly grounding.
Agreed. And that isn’t a reviewable call right?

Stop being pissed off. We just beat a legit top 5 team on the road.
Clemson is going to be a playoff team.

The Refs got it right. It’s a stupid rule. It needs to be revisited. If you clearly have control of the ball and you cross the pilon or plain of the golaline it should be TD

No they didn’t … they completely screwed it up.

They should have kicked a field goal before halftime

This. For any other play, crossing the plane from outside of the end zone is the end of the play and a TD. Period. If it was a catch and cross, that should have ended the play, and it’s been interpreted that way by many officials of over the years.
I agree- the NCAA needs to fix this. We don’t need anything close to the stupid as frick NFL rules on a catch in college football.

The rule is clear. If he’s going to the ground (he was and did) then he has to maintain control.
He didn’t.
The ball definitely moved, but he might have maintained control while it was moving. Borderline play, but it should definitely not been overturned.

Definitely agree on that. It was clear that it was going to be a close game and points would be at a premium. Had we taken the field goal the end of game drive by them would have been a moot point

How is Brown’s TD not a catch, but Bauer’s is?
They missed the grounding. In the 1H, on their TD drive Klubnik had a big run, but the middle of their OL tackled Whit Weeks. No call for holding.

The rule also says if the player takes 2 steps and/or makes a football move, the possession to the ground issue doesn't come into play. Brown took 2 steps and hit the pylon which is a football move. So possession to the ground shouldn't have mattered.

Wasn’t grounding. There was a WR in the vicinity. Also QB was being pulled down, which inhibits complete accuracy of the pass.

99% of humans know this was a catch. Go watch Arch Manning’s TD…that was less of a catch than this. If this happened middle of the field it is no brainer TD

The actual possession rule from the NCAA was posted here earlier, and the non-TD call was correct based on the wording of the rule.
No it is not correct. the ball was caught, the receiver possessed the ball, the receiver crossed the goal line, the receiver took two steps with full procession scored and the only thing they focused on was the ball coming out after his 3rd step hitting the ground

Not even sure what I did to you, but I guess I apologize?

The rules are different for a rush vs a completed pass. He has to go to the ground with possession, which i think he did. But you are not applying the rule correctly.

Well, no it was not the correct call but that’s the point. Isn’t it
