Would the "Davison Catch " hold up today? Or have the rules changed with regards to kicking the ball? For some reason I thought I heard that the catch would not stand today.
Intentionally kicking the ball is not legal, even at the time. But unless they could somehow deem it intentional I would think they'd have to let it go.
I think it would be a catch now just like it was a catch then. Saying that, I really don't know what a catch is anymore so it probably wouldn't stand after 20 minutes of replay.
