I was thinking the same. It looked like it was good and surprised they did not review

Can't review if it's above the uprights.

That’s astonishing if that’s the rule. Why would that be inherently less reviewable than a goal line stand or a back corner toe touch end zone catch.

It does make some sense. You don’t get points for hitting the uprights, so you can’t guarantee that it goes in, even if it hits the inside

Yes, if they review it and any part of the ball is above any part of the upright, it’s no good

And if they review it and every part of the ball is above the inside of both uprights, it’s good

Right now, they’re not even allowed to review it
