Some of those calls in the Notre Dame @ FSU game confused me. How is taking out the punter with his leg extended not a 15-yard penalty? And on that play ruled an incomplete pass before the missed field goal -- shouldn't that have been intentional grounding if the QB threw the ball at his feet while he was in the pocket?

Those were puzzling to me as well. I suppose it's karma that FSU missed the field goal then lmaooo.

The rules analyst explained it. The philosophy is is if the contact is to the extended leg is running into and if the contact is to the plant leg or forcible contact info the body is roughing. That call was consistent with that philosophy.

The pass is not intentional grounding because that's not where he intended to throw it. Someone asked in another thread why QBs don't do this intentionally to avoid intentional grounding but obviously the word intentional is involved in the name of the foul and definition.

Side question. Why isn't spiking the ball intentional grounding? QB is inside the tackles, the ball never crosses the LOS, no receiver in the area, and he definitely intended to throw it there.

Thanks. I had the volume down low so didn't hear any explanation. It seemed like the QB was trying to pull the ball back and grasp it with both hands after a fake instead of attempting to throw it.

Listening to one of the "big" irish podcasts today, the host said a P5 official called him after the game and told him it was roughing. He could very well be lying, I have no idea. And if he is telling the truth, the official who called him up could be wrong too.

To me, it was roughing just based on the hit. If the refs made the right call here, they are basically encouraging people to light up punters on 4th and long which almost certainly is not the purpose of the rule.

I get that refs need some bright line rules and probably appreciate them, but they probably should use a standard rather than a rule on that because he didn't just knock the guy over or bump into him there. That was a legit hit.

Do you think there should be any leeway on those types of hits or do you think that the rule the analyst described is the proper way of viewing it?

NDSU needs to get LSU on the schedule.
