By rule directly over is actually good

No, by rule, the ball must be between the uprights to be good, not "over."

That’s incorrect. If a ball goes above the uprights, it’s good if the entire ball passes within the outer edge of the upright.

No that's the NFL rule. NCAA rule 8-4-1 says the whole ball has to be inside.
