I thought it was grounding too. Though Oregon has gotten a way with some holding so I guess it's a wash

It can cross the scrimmage line after it goes out of bounds, and it would have would it not have hit someone on the sidelines, so if there was no intereference with the ball flight it would have gone across the scrimmage line extended, therefore no intentional grounding!karen lotz wrote:Pass has to get back to the line of scrimmageFabio wrote:Outside of the Tackle box is my guess.

Sure would like to see OSU score TD's instead of FG's, that will come back on OSU in the 2nd half. jmo

I thought Pryor did poorly on that last play before the the FG. That situation calls for the QB to get rid of it quickly, either to the sidelines, to the endzone, or down the middle at least ten yds for a first down, and then they'd have time to spike after stopping the clock to move the chains. But he did neither and made the same mistake that nearly cost Colt McCoy.

Buckeyes turn to win a nail biter. Fingers crossed. A tip of the cap to Tressel for 2 things. Game plan good. Going for it on 4th and a half a yard was good too.. Had to go. Good job coach.

I would too, but I back Tressel's fear of Pryor making bad decisions. I'm sure that played into not doing something better on the 1st and a half yard.Citybuck wrote: Sure would like to see OSU score TD's instead of FG's, that will come back on OSU in the 2nd half. jmo

That is a horrible call. Horrible. I don't care if Chekwa didn't get his head around...there was almost ZERO contact there.

I still think there should have to be some contact

no it wasnt. he wasnt looking for the ball and was blocking the receiver from making the catch. had he turned to look and make a play on the ball it wouldnt have been called.

I know that's the rule but I don't agree with it.
You shouldn't have to look for the ball just defend the play without making contact.

it's not interfering if you're not making contact
he was in good position there just didn't turn his head
I think they could change that at both levels, college and NFL
