I'll say it

Does he or does he not have one foot down in bounds, goes up and catches the ball and comes down in bounds? He doesn't jump off both simultaneously The foot out of bounds is off the ground when the other is in bounds.

He does use both for momentum to make the jump. Feel free to go back to Bankstons previous catch and ask yourself why the refs gave him an extra 3 yards on the catch because of the slide. This isn’t the NFL.

Tom wistrcill was there which I didn’t know until watching the replay, so we clearly didn’t have enough angles for the ref to look at it and make the right decision.

No matter what arguments are made for or against moving up, getting away from Big Sky officiating would have to be high up on the pro list.

And Wistrcill...

He only needs one foot which he gets with the left after the right comes off the white. Momentum has zero to do with anything.

lol. See catch rule.

And if the momentum came from an out of bounds foot. That is not established.

Whatever though HHB. As I’ve stated it likely wouldn’t have changed the outcome anyways. But keeping seeking that validation brother.

You're kind of right. Yes, when he caught the ball, both feet were inbounds. However, as the ball was approaching the receiver, said receiver stepped into the pass while still out of bounds. He didn't establish himself before catching that pass. I believe I'm correct. Unfortunately, I can't make out the small print that someone's posted a few times regarding the rule book.

The rule says “immediately”….that reciver ran 3 or 4 more yards out of bounds and did not immediately return to field of play. That’s the part of the rule they blew.

Probably an unpopular take here, but Wistrcill's job is to the whole conference, and his time as commissioner has seen the league become much more prominent in national conversations. I see more Big Sky stuff on Twitter from national folks and on ESPN than I ever did in the decade prior. Hell, the conference has regular season games on ESPN2 now. And this is a media game; the whole thing is a show to get our schools' names out there.

I don't love the current state of the Big Sky in a lot of ways, but in terms of things that a conference commissioner can actually do (without undermining the integrity of the sport, which calling the refs on the field from a president's box and telling them to call a specific way would do), the Big Sky admin have done a much better job than the rest of the FCS conferences in terms of creating their own hype and increasing the number of eyeballs watching BSC games.

Yeah he shouldn't have touched it considering it was the end zone... Refs fricked that up... That says it all right there. Bad call

I just now saw the supposed game winning TD from ESPN+ on demand.

The BSC officials totally screwed up that call! Regardless if a receiver is forced out or not, said receiver has to reestablish position inbounds. That receiver's step to the thrown ball was from out of bounds. HE NEVER established himself inbounds!

The conference needs to address this one! They better not sugar coat it!

Absolutely terrible call!

That is exactly what I thought when I replayed it several times.
Total BS but that doesn’t address the terrible D that put the Weebs in a position to win it.
Better play throughout the game and we wouldn’t be here debating the call.
BSC refs have been terrible for years so we have to play better to avoid the game coming down to their foolery.
 
ARTICLE 4. No eligible offensive receiver who goes out of bounds and RETURNS IN BOUNDS DURING A DOWN SHALL TOUCH A LEGAL FORWARD PASS WHILE IN THE FIELD OF PLAY OR END ZONES or while airborne until it has been touched by an opponent or official."

Read that carefully.
