Oklahoma @ Kansas

i mean, forward progress was clearly stopped

[Huckleberry 34,657]

This is a crazy situation and I don't know the exact rules. The ball crossed the line of scrimmage but Brooks didn't. The ball was officially a forward pass, I think, because there was never an unintentional loss of possession (i.e., fumble). I think that this is a legal play statistically as a pass from Brooks to Williams, unfortunately.

why not?

Un fucking believable

I agree with this but I don't believe that's reviewable, is it?

[Paul Wesley 3,313]

I think it's a legal play.

 

I also think it's rotten as fuck to take away a KU TD for a veeeery marginal hold 20 yards away from the play while ignoring OU receivers holding on the edge right in front of the runner.... like, for example, just a few snaps ago.

Yep

[Stunns38 3,805]

And of course OU gets the benefit of the doubt

[LTtxfan 50,005]

Refs should have blown dead before the forward hand-off...

[HtownHorn 15,236]

They are just making shit up.

Legal forward handoff.

If the defense and stripped it, it would have been ruled a fumble.

So much for the Big 12 refs will screw Texas and OU as we leave the conference narrative

Nope.  Fuck this conference.

No way that should stand. You can't rip the ball out of your own teammate's hand. He can pitch it to you but you can't just play double handoff. 

Guess many double reverses are illegal then.

YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS ABOUT RIGHT?!?!

nope, but of course the refs swallow their whistles at a critical time for ou

[Baconboy 143]

Does it not matter that he previously ran across the line of scrimmage? I thought once you went past the LOS you couldn't have a "forward pass".

That's not a pitch nor a handoff. He ripped the ball out of his teammate's hand.

So many missed holds against OU.  Water is wet.   I'll never understand how they get every break every fucking game including BS like that last play. Truly unbelievable

[Surly Bevo 25,748]

The question I have is did he cross the line of scrimmage and then get pushed back behind it. That would have seemed to make it illegal. But it was close.

[Elmer_Fudd 22,994]

Lulz and another hold.

[dcar00 14,972]

another hold uncalled.

It was close, but he definitely crossed the line of scrimmage before getting pushed back.

[Lat22 4,086]

Not at all. This kind of shit happens for them all of the time.

[mdmost 44,049]

Luckiest f'ing program in America.

It really is damn near every fucking play.  I don't understand how coaches in this conference haven't all agreed to just send in every fucking hold on tape to Bowlsby's band of dumb fucks weekly.   It's been going on for 15 years

[Stunns38 3,805]

If KU can pull in some decent skill recruits, they could be a bowl team in a couple years.

You're not across the line of scrimmage until your entire body is past it.

If he crossed line of scrimmage, than by rule that was an illegal forward hand-off...  

[Billy Pilgrim 2,079]

OU benefits from a shitty big 12 with no good defenses. The #3 team shouldn’t have this much trouble with Kansas. When they play a good defense, Williams is going to get his ass beat.

[Patricio Swayze 17,058]

Both Bama and Ohio State have to jump ou in the rankings. What a joke.

[Stunns38 3,805]

You're correct - my bad.

[Mo Horn 8,938]

Major props and respect to anyone who thought this would end any other way. I wish I still had your optimism, but I've been doing this to long, and seen it too many times to not know how it turns out. 

[WBT 20,979]

And they punch it in to try to not look so bad when two knees would have run out the clock

[mdleast 8,521]

[mdmost 44,049]

Sooners with a little garbage time TD to fool the media and coaches who didn't watch this game. 

[OU Sucks 9,392]

KU fans who got in for free got ripped off.

[Billy Pilgrim 2,079]

The shittiest thing about the holds not getting called is that when the receivers do it, it’s so much easier to see than when it’s done on the interior of the line. They were so obvious and had an effect on the play.

[LonghornSean 4,103]

OU 8-0 for the first time since 2004. Fortunately, I have no fear whatsoever of them winning the national title though.

[BigHornedLurker 2,176]

What a joke. We all know if texas did this shit it would be called back immediately 

[Surly Bevo 25,748]

Not sure that is accurate. Otherwise a QB throwing a ball that goes beyond the line of scrimmage and it gets batted back to him could legally throw it again.

Maybe you are right but line issues always seem more to be about where the ball is.

[Stunns38 3,805]

They have to make it a point every fucking game to mention the “Texas” comeback.

[Honeysucklerose 1,006]

Nice effort Kansas
