You would lose your nut then because the clock starts once they spot the ball, not on the snap.My guess is that he had a 1st down as soon as he hit the ground. The clock automatically stops and doesn't start again until GT snaps the ball. I'm not 100% sure, but I'd bet my left nut.
The ref signals the first down not the clock keeper so the time would have run out.My "guess" is that he had a 1st down as soon as he hit the ground. The clock automatically stops and doesn't start again until GT snaps the ball. I'm not 100% sure, but I'd bet my left nut.
oops! Thanks Glenn.You would lose your nut then because the clock starts once they spot the ball, not on the snap.
That is correct. Dude owes us his left nut.You would lose your nut then because the clock starts once they spot the ball, not on the snap.
You are now nutless because you are wrong. Clock starts once spotted. They wouldn't have even been able to get the FG unit on the field.My "guess" is that he had a 1st down as soon as he hit the ground. Inbound or out of bounds wasn't the issue. The clock automatically stops and doesn't start again until GT snaps the ball. I'm not 100% sure, but I'd bet my left nut.
exactlyBasically they screwed us by not calling him in of bounds and the ref spinning his arm to indicate that he was in bounds.
Time to change your handle to Bill-One Nut Shy Cat.oops! Thanks Glenn.
If he wasn't out of bounds the clock would start as soon as the ball is spotted for the first down. Now after we called the time out it wouldn't start until the ball is snapped!My "guess" is that he had a 1st down as soon as he hit the ground. Inbound or out of bounds wasn't the issue. The clock automatically stops and doesn't start again until GT snaps the ball. I'm not 100% sure, but I'd bet my left nut.
Totally agree. The refs were terrible. The proceeding field goal was a back breaker for us. We never totally recovered.The ref signals the first down not the clock keeper so the time would have run out.
Who cares? That play had no bearing on the outcome. Take off those points and you still lose 30-18.
I'm pretty sure it is a rule that unless it is before the game or halftime that you aren't allowed to have 30 players on the field even if it is a dead ball. That was on your coaching staff.What about that bullshit call on the GT sideline that pushed them out of FG range?

I'm pretty sure the clock starts running when the chains are moved and in place.My "guess" is that he had a 1st down as soon as he hit the ground. Inbound or out of bounds wasn't the issue.

Yeah this, also how did they get the snap, go back in the pocket throw and catch the ball, and get tackled in 3 secondsYou would lose your nut then because the clock starts once they spot the ball, not on the snap.
You're right, Levi. Glenn has schooled me on the rule. Lesson learned.In any case I believe it was a botched call.
I think you're missing a few things. Not only the terrible 'out of bounds call' what about the 'piling on' penalty that took us out of FG range to go down 2 score early in the 3rd? How many times have you seen players cause a pile on a deal ball? How many times have you seen another get called for a penalty doing it? The 'holding call' on the INT you all ultimately scored an FG on. There were 2 targeting penalties you all got away with. There was one facemask call on us where our player touched the back of the GT's player's helmets. If you don't believe that the refs decided the winner. Not saying we lost because of them. But we never had a chance to make it a game because of them: you speculating they only gave you all 3 points is far from wrong. At a minimum 9 points, minimum. We didn't even try on our last drive. Had we been tied (which at the least we would've been down 6 due to the refs), or down 6 points. Then obviously we would've approached the final drive much differently. I am never the one to blame refs for a loss. But that was the most one sided game I've ever seen in the history of officiating in this sport we call football from beginning to end. The terrible calls just never stopped.The kick was over 50 yards. It was no gimme. The game was never close enough for a field goal to matter anyway. Kentucky was in the game for the first few minutes. After the scoop and score, I knew you guys couldn't hang. Only question was whether it would be a blowout or not and if so how big the margin was going to be.
