WHY ARE YOU PORSTING IN ALL CAPS?

YOURE NOT BIG POOPA.

OR ARE YOU?

 

[9oh4Cane]

Thought it was a catch

Also thought ND was the better team tonight and flat out beat us

 

[Tinman64]

Can somebody paste the actually rule? He should’ve just kept it high

 

[Tony4Canes]

Not a TD catch

Pass Interference on Upshaw

Targeting

 

[Hurricane23]

Do you enjoy being wrong?

Lofton completed the catch with full control and both feet in bounds. That’s the end of the ******* play.

He didn’t lose control until after the play should have been over, when he eas fully out of bounds.

Look up the rules on a catch, it was not a catch

Their lines were so much better

I think it comes down to whether the third step that landed out of bounds = "maintains control of the ball long enough to enable that player to perform an act common to the game"?

Coach seems to think it does, so that's good enough for me, lol.

 

[Cribby]

Please don’t do this ref ****. I’m so over it from all fan bases using it as cope. There’s 120 plays in a game and a penalty on every play. Injuries and refs are part of the game. Oh and that’s not a catch . We was outplayed and the better team this night won. Finish business and we can get some get back.

 

[DWade3]

Lofton has to bring that ball with him to the plane for it to count as a TD.

Least surprising thing in the world that the ACC refs screwed us vs a non ACC opponent. Get us out of this dog**** conference

Is scoring a TD not considered a football move now?

Dude, I think that should be a TD. Just pointing out the rules

 

[BooBoo]

Cant let refs decide games at nd they are always gonna get the call . I don’t know how to define a catch anymore

Game was on the Notre Dame network there was no way they were going to make an unbiased call.

 

[Braduhley]

And then there was this ….

If this isn't targeting then I have no idea what is. Dudes face was parallel with the ground but somehow it wasn't the crown

 

[bathtubgin]

Look up the rules on a catch, it was not a catch

I know the rules of a catch and that was a catch

No kidding. Why do you have to perform an additional “football move” when you already have 2 feet down with firm possession of the ball in the EZ, then take an additional step out of bounds before it is knocked away? If a player catches a ball around the 50 yard line, gets 2 feet in bounds with firm control, then takes an additional step out of bounds, can a defender then strip the ball away and back into the field of play for a fumble?? No, at the point the ball carrier has possession of the ball with a foot out of bounds the play is dead.

No

Be incomplete pass
