I don't get why that isn't a fumble. If it would have been caught before it hit the ground is it considered an int or a fumble recovery?/cdn0.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2898522/ioWAT.0.gif)
interception. By rule a ball thrown forward can't be considered a fumble, it's a pass.
At 2pm I left my office for a meeting elsewhere in the building, walk by Hawkeye (wal-mart variety) co-worker, lights on in office, radio pre-game on, babbling about Big 10 wins, SEC blah blah blah...
Just came back by his office, his lights/radio are off, he's gone, already knew it must be good, turned on the radio and hear "It has not been a good day at the office for the Hawkeyes", 28-0 bwahahaha!!! Classic bandwagon hawk fan.
But then they just scored a touchdown so I'm shutting the radio back off.

Correct, and now that I look at it, of course it was a pass. An illegal pass is still a pass, it's either incomplete or caught/intercepted. The only way TN could have taken possession would be if they caught it out of the air and declined the penalty.
exactly. so any RB caught behind the line can just toss ot forward for an incomplete and get it back at the line of scrimmage?
Incorrect. It's a dead ball once it's thrown. Can't intercept an illegal pass. Play over. 5 yard penalty. Loss of down?
I believe if the other team would have caught it they could have declined the penalty to keep the ball but for the offense once that happens the play is dead.
you can't forward pass on a kickoff. what puzzles me is that they reviewed it and then called a penalty. Didn't think they could do that.
