You need possession of the ball going forward.


Only when then hand starts forward.

Bobbling a ball in a forward motion isn’t a pass attempt.


It is if you had possession as you hand starts forward.

I think it was a pass but I hate Bama so my judgement may be a tad bit suspect. Even so, that was hard call to reverse on replay.

NCAA rulebook says the forward motion starts the pass if the ball is “firmly” in the QB’s hand. I don’t believe we saw that.
Seems like Young’s should have been a fumble then based on this definition

I rewound to rewatch that last angle but it looked to me like he was basically flicking it forward with almost a basketball type of follow-through. Not that the ball was slipping.

Young clearly had a tight grip on the ball when his hand was coming forward. Are y’all seriously this stupid?

I’m always fascinated watching people be so fricking biased that they just turn into morons.
