Will never convince me

And if it was ruled a catch it would have been down at that spot. There was no scenario where that was an interception. None.

I said this like 2 pages ago, people keep quoting this and telling me that. I acknowledged this a while ago.

Not the topic, but the guy complaining to the ref instead of being ready to jump on a fumble is so typical of Stoops teams.

If you’re certain the ball hit the ground, then that’s one thing. Almost all of you are wrong when you keep saying the only alternative to an incomplete pass was that he was down and the play was over though. If a player goes to the ground as part of catching the ball rather than after making a “football move” with possession, then he has to maintain control through his entire fall, which in the case of this play would have included when he rolled over and popped the ball back into the air. You don’t get a freeze frame that instantly ends the play at the moment of first impact with the ground.

Whether or not he ever got control of the ball or was going to doesn't matter since he used the ground to try to control the ball so...incomplete pass.
