It could have been called because it's a toss up whether HURTS was outside the tackle box when he threw it. It doesn't matter if there is a receiver in the area or not when the ball is thrown over the line of scrimmage. It's Bama dude so therefore it is not intentional grounding.

The IG play was reviewable in college.

Passes ARTICLE 2. Reviewable plays involving passes include: Location of the passer when he is obviously in the field of play and a ruling of intentional grounding would result in a safety by penalty.

Rule 12, Article 2(f)

This means they could review if he was in the tackle box. If, as Hanny suggested after the game (on the radio) they did not feel the pressure was sufficient that would not be reviewable. However, the rule states that it is grounding if he throws it away to consevre yardage. Based on that video, why else would he be throwing the ball away?
