No, stuff like that isn't reviewable.Why is this not a reviewable call? 15-yards + automatic first down; and it is something that CAN be seen clearly on a replay. So why is it not reviewable? I guess they like the idea of refs influencing the outcome of a game *shrugs*.
Very good point...and from the opponent's conference officials...i still refuse to go either way on the call after watching the replay, but this is probably something that needs to be discussed by the NCAA.No, stuff like that isn't reviewable.Why is this not a reviewable call? 15-yards + automatic first down; and it is something that CAN be seen clearly on a replay.

Like most calls, it's a judgement call. I think they screwed it up. It something I can stomach in the 2nd quarter with like 8 minutes to go. Not the 4th quarter with 2-3 minutes to go...
Agree. It needs to be discussed and possibly defined a bit more clearly. I guess if it were a reviewable play the only thing that you could see is that he was in the air before the player was out of bounds, but that he DID make contact out of bounds, so it would only reinforce the penatly, unless there was a stipulation for an airpborn defender.Very good point...and from the opponent's conference officials...i still refuse to go either way on the call after watching the replay, but this is probably something that needs to be discussed by the NCAA.

It's a judgement call and is always going to be judgement call. I think the call stunk, but it's not why we lost the game. Poor offensive play calling and wide open VT receivers had much more to do with the outcome of the game.Agree. It needs to be discussed and possibly defined a bit more clearly.

I think anything that could be adjusted with the rule would take a MAJOR change. I think it should be looked at *shrugs*. I DO NOT like rules which let the refs dictate the momentum of a game. Any call should be reviewable, as with video replay you can see EXACTLY what happened (especially now with high-definition). EDIT: of course if there's not a good angle, not clear, etc.. it should stay with the call on the field as it is now.
Of course, that would slow down the game too much so it won't happen![]()

They stood by those stooges who screwed up the BYU WU game. Why wouldn't they do the same here?
