Amen. That interception just killed Iowa.
We are going to beat Maryland, but The Great Carnac sees a 9, 3 reg. season

Well they were gifted a field goal on roughing the center personal foul. Raise your hand if you have ever seen that called at any level of football.

Absolutely the correct call.

Absolutely right. My son has done long snapping and you absolutely can not do that. We saw the replay and both immediately agreed. That rule applies to punts, extra points, and field goals. The Iowa player hit him way too soon. Legit call. Watch any game and the snapper is not to be hit for 1 second after the snap.

Watch the game winning FG and tell me how that doesn't get called? I've known about the rule and have actually watched for it a few times and never seen it called. Glad it worked out though.

I did. Michigan players went into the gap. When the snapper gets hit from the side, that rarely gets called of the snapper is hit early. The Iowa player directly engaged the snapper before he was able to get his head and arms forward. If you do that it will get called. It didn't help that there was no other defender around, and it just made it obvious.

I just watched a field goal attempt in the Arizona-Colorado game, same thing, the gaps were attacked on both sides and no flag.

Not if Michigan wins out. But Ohio State is pretty much screwed.
If Michigan can't beat Iowa how the hell are they gonna win in Columbus? Ain't gonna happen. I think Iowa is better than people think and Michigan isn't as good as everyone thought. PSU will play Wisconsin for conference title.

Wisconsin got called for the same thing when they played MI this year, only 2 times I've heard it being called.

Ok. Thanks for your input. I do think the snapper had plenty of time and even engaged Snyder a little bit so he had time. But you make a good point about it being secluded and not in a big pile.
