FSU's Double Pass?

The rule book only states forward and backwards passes. Anything that is not backwards is considered a forward pass.

LOL, that's what I was trying to say. I guess saying it's clearly forward is the same as saying it clearly wasn't backwards.

Had the first pass been dropped, they would have whistled the play dead on an incomplete pass.
 
I don't have a screen shot or anything but on TV it was a catch IMO. Call on the field being incomplete was the deal breaker there as I guess they didn't see "inconclusive" evidence that he caught it.

Yes. He caught it. Squeezed it, tip of ball hit ground after he secured, but ball didn’t move at all.
 
FSU was gifted a PR TD, the returner stepped out of bounds. Never mind the fact that it should have come back to begin with, there were MULTIPLE egregious holds on that play. I don't want to hear any BS whining about getting calls, they were ahead 27-7 and STILL LOST. That's not refs helping, that's you being pure crap.

Another block in back on a different return too if I’m not mistaken. Announcers caught it in tv
 
Richt wanted to score... but Diaz was the one that ran over to him to have him tell his guys not to score. He didn't want to have has defense go back into the game.
Scoring would have given FSU a chance to tie the game. We score a TD and make the Xpt it is now an 8 pt lead and FSU can tie it with a TD and a 2 pt conversion.

Running the clock out gave FSU zero chance to come back.

This. As much as I would have preferred an 8 point win to a 1 point win, you have to make coaching decisions based on priority and priority was not giving FSU a chance to possibly tie the game back up. Especially with Miami's shaky kick coverage teams, there's at least a small chance that FSU could have housed the ensuing kick return and been a 2 point conversion away from tying the game.

and had a Miami player jumped on it, FSU would be whining that it was a forward pass. They're determined to ***** and moan either way, it's just their style.

Getting to take a knee was more satisfying to me, because they were only down by a single point and couldn't do a **** thing about it.

Oh, and Homer was a grown man on that run to get the first, I thought the guy was gonna trip him up, reminded me of Berrios getting the first LY when the guy tripped him.

Well you'll be glad to know that WiLLLie has sent for "clarification" from the ACC offices on what they did wrong.

You blew a 20pt. lead and barely had 200yds of offense is what you did wrong. He's obviously feeling the heat.


The ACC clarification should be "WiLLLie, if you want to run that play, tell your WR to drop back further before he sets his feet and prepares to catch the backward pass from the QB. If your WR does that, the refs will have enough clarity not to throw a flag on your trick play. We hope that clarifies your question, as it is a non-reviewable visual call that refs have to make every time you want to run that play."

That's what you don't hear from all the rah rah we just got a huge win crowd...that was a VERY close call that would have likely made this game a huge L. We had some bad ones against us...but like last year, it sadly took some divine intervention....surprisingly it was in the form of an ACC official.

UM

Look at this FSU cuck saying we won the game because of the refs. What game were you watching?
 
Did anyone else catch that 1. the camera angle was not directly down the line in the replay, that is like reviewing a td call without the goaline camera which is why it is now there, it is very difficulty from an angled camera to determine ball placement; and 2. the yellow line ABC put on the replay is crooked. See below, the top hash is exposed, the yellow line is touching the far right hash, and completely covering up the left hash.
So that means the line is angled forward making it look closer than it actually was....

Both qb and receiver are on the 45.receiver needed to be behind qb to throw a forward pass.

Pretty hilarious that's what you took from that dip****. More hilarious is that u think UM didn't need that call because they played so stellar.

Happy 5th day on the board super fan...lol.
 
On Warchant, they got 8 separate threads talking about it.

Since having kickers that choke are no longer in style, FSU, along with their Turnover Purse has now upgraded their excuse attire; 'It's da refs mang!'

I don't want to hear it from them. We were screwed out of two national titles because of horrendous calls.
 
Bianchi on the radio here in Orlando says this is proof the ACC refs wanted Miami to win because it would be good for the ACC.

I wanted to call in and ask if that was true, why was the horse collar penalty picked up? Why was the Homer pass called incomplete? Why wasn't the punt return reviewed? Why weren't there more holding calls on the number one TFL defense in the nation?
 
.In my many years of watching football I usually see the WRs take a step back PRIOR to the pass. F$U's WR took a step back after the pass to make it look close.
They have no one to blame but themselves and their crappy execution of a play that could have worked if run properly.

not to mention joe jackson's forced fumble that was overturned

And how many times did we see a ref come running from 20 yards away to overrule the official who was standing right there? And always to our detriment, so that we would have the burden of showing indisputable visual evidence to get the call. Typical ACC ref shenanigans.
