The gap rule applies more so at the line of scrimmage not where the infraction actually occurred. The MN player had established a defending position and the Iowa player tried to go over the top. Jesus this isn't that hard.

Like Motley Crue says, “Don’t go away mad, just go away!”
Enough already - the thread title speaks for itself!
Can we take this from the top. I'm getting a little confused
NCAA national coordinator of officials included this in his weekly rules/review explanation video
And yet all I see are Iowa fans claiming the refs are out to get them.
How dare you bring proof to an Iowa fan!
It doesnt matter you can bring dozens of links, videos, pages of the rule books, examples etc and the clueless, delusional, block headed Squawk fans will still argue they are right.
So funny that some people are trying to claim that's not a wave. I've been really drunk and really high, but I've never been that drunk and high.
There is a ref behind CDJ staring right at him. The left arm waving was really obvious. Three waves from the left arm to be precise. Not that hard.
The point is/was, if that penalty had been called correctly (everyone knows it was not and not reviewable), then the other stuff in the return would be moot.
People are saying Not only was it the correct call, but Iowa got away with a penalty that would have voided all the stuff following. Not that it should have been penalized on replay.
How are Hok fans so dense?
Sorry, I'm not writing it out in crayon for you.
You mean the same officials that were probably wrong in their right to review and in their defense of reviewing the play, but not sure you want to go down that rabbit hole. LOL.
Are you saying the Big 10 officials were wrong to review the Cooper DeJean play?
At this point, you're just either highly ignorant or a bad troll.
Again, you don't want to go down this rabbit hole. It is murky I admit and hard to follow.
Basically, the allowable reviewable plays state that you can review "advancement of a fair catch", which they interpret as both valid and invalid fair catches and obviously what happened as it doesn't become illegal until Cooper advances the ball.
However, it is a 5 yard penalty for "advancement of a fair catch", and the replay official simply called it Invalid Fair Catch and dead ball at the place of where Cooper fielded the punt.
Why would they do that and not give Iowa a 5 yard penalty as they should have?
Because "advancement of a fair catch" isn't allowed in the penalized play list that can be created in the review booth. The Big 10 office used the reasoning of "advancement of a fair catch" as the reasoning why the play was open to review, but then didn't use that in their conclusion because they can't go back to review and create a penalty for that.
Holy crap you guys are just making sh!t up at this point.
