Well then shouldn’t they have flagged Kolar? He obviously moves before the TO is called.
Players in the backfield can motion and move during the play. They have to be set before snapping the ball, and ISU never snapped the ball.
Listen I get that you lost and it hurts. Don't be dumb asses though and cry about a call that was correct. If ISU fans, and worse CMC or the ISU linemen understood the rules nobody would be crying at all. You should be pissed at CMC for not knowing the rules and telling his Oline that as soon as someone steps into the neutral zone, you fire off the ball and hit them. CMC looked like a complete idiot reacting like he did.
SECTION 18. Encroachment and Offside :: NCAA Football Rules Online
Offside
ARTICLE 2.
After the ball is ready for play, offside occurs (Rule 7-1-5) when a defensive player:
- Is in or beyond the neutral zone when the ball is legally snapped;
- Contacts an opponent beyond the neutral zone before the ball is snapped;
- Contacts the ball before it is snapped;
- Threatens an offensive lineman, causing an immediate reaction, before the ball is snapped (A.R. 7-1-3-V Note);
- Crosses the neutral zone and charges toward a Team A back (A.R. 7-1-5-III); or
- Is not behind his restraining line when the ball is legally free-kicked. Offside occurs when one or more players of the kicking team are not behind their restraining line when the ball is legally free-kicked (Exception: The kicker and holder are not offside when they are beyond their restraining line) (Rule 6-1-2).
