Wow the 4 & 3 Notre Dame play was illegal.

Here is what I think we learned from this loss. Our offense is more Dynamic than we think
Speaking for yourself. People on this board have been beating that drum since the spring. We wasted a half because we wanted to do things we just arent good at this year. Our OL is mid but our QB and skill positions are the best in the nation and we need to showcase that. This is not last year's offense.
 
Don’t we play this Saturday? Why are we spending so much time on a game that happened already and the result is determined?
I know, I know, sorry about that. I’m going to suit up and go practice for Duke right away…
 
Go beat Duke, VT, BC and go win the ACC.
Yes, let's do these things. Win out the next 4 games, and at worst, we'll play in the opening round against the G5 representative, which might be a good thing for staying sharp, but my guess is more losses will happen with schools ahead of us and we'll get a bye, which will be good for getting guys healthy.

Just 1-0. Nothing else is in our hands.

I think the 3 yard rule in college is stupid. This pic is from Notre Dame's second touchdown where they ran a play action pass. Look at how far their offensive lineman is upfield pretending to be a run blocker. Chase Smith has to respect the run. I like the 1 yard in the NFL better.
 
To be honest - it looks like the TE is lined up in a wing position, not on the line of scrimmage.


That's wrong. Look at the video. His feet are in the same lateral position as the tackle on the other side of the line.

So either the tackle is not on the line of scrimmage, or the tight end is.

Both the tackle and the tight end have their feet on the white line:

Not illegal because he wasn’t beyond the line of scrimmage by 3 yards. That’s like saying a lineman can’t run to the flats for a screen play.


Bull****. It was 4th and 3 (let's call it 2.5) and he was FOUR YARDS (let's call it 3.5) downfield.

Wow Coach Hayes caught something important. The tight end was covered up and he should have never been able to go out for a pass.

The refs job is to all ways count the line of scrimmage
I could be wrong, and I posted about it on Sunday, but I also thought there was an illegal pic or rub on whoever was guarding the back out of the backfield
It was not a pick. It was legit
So the wr can block the db and the pass is completed like 7 yards downfield? That doesn’t seem to be the same as a screen play. He caught the ball well past 3 yards down field
