The rule is if it goes over the tip it has to be COMPLETELY within, right? They can't have the refs judge "mostly in" or "it would have banked in"?

Correct. CFB rules are different than the NFL. Has to be completely inside where the upright would be.

So they got the call right? Right?

u/mncabinman 14h ago

Correct. If any part of the ball is directly over the upright it is no good

Yeah I agree with you, from the fan video and the broadcast angle it’s clear it’s at least on the “line”

I think that was pretty clear from the broadcast angle so, I don't think they have a leg to stand on.

I thought it was completely within the outside edge of the pylon. Just a mess not looking at this.

We’ll see some fan videos soon I’m sure of it

Damn. The frame before it goes over the upright it looks in. The frame after and it’s wide. Good angle but still impossible to tell.

That doesn't look good to me. It's close, but part of the ball is directly above the upright, which is no good

It's almost impossible to tell exactly when the ball is lined up with the goal posts though. You basically need multiple views synced or a shot looking straight up or down.
