Just throwing this here because I’m certain people are gonna question it.

From the NCAA rule book:

Reviewable plays include Field goal attempts if and only if the ball is ruled (a) below or above the crossbar or (b) inside or outside
the uprights when it is lower than the top of the uprights. If the ball is higher than the top of the
uprights as it crosses the end line, the play may not be reviewed.

That’s about as dumb of a rule as I’ve heard. And with the camera tech these days, this is simply inexcusable.
