VA intercepts with a diving catch.
Never touched while down by any defender.
Doesn't even attempt to run with it.
Wassup with that ?
Can they not run unless intercepted while on their feet ?
Or at all ?
Late 3rd quarter.
Weird ....
Thanks

Down at any time you touch the ground with a knee or elbow. Doesn't matter if the defender touches you or not.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Does the same apply for an offensive receiver making a clean diving catch ? Doesn't have to be touched and is down ?
Now, the NFL is different, no ?
Thanks TS,

Same applies to offense, ball carrier does not have to be touched by the opposing side to be down in college. NFL is different, yes.

Yep,
Even if he just trips, he's down.

Never liked that rule but ...


There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.
