When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

I think it is a stupid rule too. Its really not consistent with the other rules either. I think a better rule is to let the offense keep the ball on the 20.
This stupid rule benefitted the Bison last year vs UNI... one reason why the score was closer.

It's a pretty messed up situation, but I really don't have an issue with the call. If a punt or kickoff goes OB in the endzone, it's a touchback.
The offensive team screwed up, they shouldn't be rewarded for screwing up. You have to have possession of the ball when you cross the goal line, and in this instance they don't. Maybe loss of down and a ten yard penalty from the previous spot, but I really don't have an issue with the current rule. Prevents fumbling into the endzone same as the 4th down rule.

If this exact same thing happened the other way around everyone would be praising the rule. Just man up and take it.
Heres one for Indy though. The bs pass interference call, I had thought def pass int was a 15 yd penalty or 1/2 the distance to the goal if inside the 15.
When it was called the line of scrimmage was at the 9 yd line(it was 2nd and 9(goal))and they spotted the ball on the 2..
