Apathy Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Does anybody have a link to this catch that was ruled not a catch and not reviewed. Why were two fumbles reviewed that were clearly a fumble and not a fumble but Reed makes a catch but the booth and Pelini didn't review it. My dad had his headphoned on throughout the game and the announcers said it was a catch. Quote Link to comment

And idk what our coaches in the press box were doing that they didn't tell Pelini it was a catch Quote Link to comment
Chaddyboxer Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Yeah, he had one foot in. It was an obvious catch and the announcers were like.."uh....it was a catch...why are they punting!??" Quote Link to comment
Ratt Mhule Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 And also during the replay you can see one ref in front of him, one ref behind him, both looking at his feet. How could they both miss it? Boggles my mind... Quote Link to comment
irafreak Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I believe it looked like a no catch and kyler didn't argue it so they just punted quick to save valuable time...no excuse just my thoughts. Quote Link to comment

Count 'Bility Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 When did this happen? Another question i have is after watching the espn u replay tonight i noticed something. Did the clock rule change for out of bounds? Before the pooch kick that Hagg returned for a td, the 3rd down play, the reversed (i think) to kirkendahl, he ran out of bounds 3 yards short of the 1st down, stopping the clock at 3:51, after a few seconds that clock began to run again, allowing 49 seconds to run of by the time Hagg gets to the endzone. As it turned out no, but that 49 seconds couldve been a big deal. I was just wondering if the rule had changed in a year or so, cuz it is something ive never noticed before. Quote Link to comment

nebraskapit Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I'm kind of surprised how many people seem to not know about the rule change about the "Ball out of Bounds" timing change... I thought it was pretty big news before? I couldn't exactly find the rule... but here is one reference I found: Ball Out Of Bounds (Rule 3-2-5-a-12). When a ball is carried or fumbled out of bounds, the game clock will stop, as always. Beginning in 2008 the game clock will start on the referee’s signal when the ball is ready for play, not on the snap. In the last two minutes of the half, however, the clock will start on the snap as before, preserving the ability of the offensive team to maximize strategic use of the clock. So in that case, I think the clock started after the referee placed the ball and started the clock... Does that sound correct to anyone else? Quote Link to comment
whateveritis1224 Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 It does, but the rule doesn't make sense. Seems like a holdover from the year where the clock ran no matter to shorten games. Quote Link to comment

holvy83 Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Back to the OP, it was a catch, and yes NU lined up and punted to quickly, but as close as it was I can't believe the call for a booth review was not made a lot quicker. Quote Link to comment

I think they have a pace they do things in the replay booth. Once they hit the button, it stops the game, so they don't want to hit it unless they think there is a good chance. Since it would favor the offense, I bet they thought they had more time to look at it before stopping the game. We snapped too quickly on the punt for them to hit the button. @whatever, the clock never just continually ran on out of bounds plays, at least not in our time. Quote Link to comment

I guess the refs could miss it even though they were right on top of it. But our booth cost us a possession. There is no excuse for punting instead of challenging it. The replay clearly showed Reed’s toe inbounds and possession to make the catch. Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 There was absolutely no need for us to punt that quickly either since the clock would have stopped. Coaches and players should have taken their time, allowed the booth to review or at the very least, the coaches upstairs to review it then challenge it. Quote Link to comment
