Just rewatched the 2nd half and confirmed one thing that I thought I saw live.  With 8:20 left in the 4th quarter, Navy ran the option to their right.  After the QB crossed the line of scrimmage he tossed the ball forward to the option back.  No call.  It was an illegal forward pass.  It's easy to lead the nation in fewest penalties if they ignore the rules when you have the ball.  

Re the original post there was one play when a back appeared to be going toward the line of scrimmage. Enough so that the Navy fan in front of us wondered where the flag was.  

I thought so at the time, but the stream wasn't clear enough to tell. You absolutely sure it went forward?

I caught that too. I think Navy's offense lulls not only opponent's D to sleep but the officials too. 

This.

Glad you noticed this too. Seems like there is so much trickery with that offense that even the refs miss things.

Yep.  Stopped it and went frame by frame.  Came out of his hand and the RB caught it about 1 yard ahead.  We were on our way out and stopped to see some friends who sit at about the 15 so couldn't be sure from the angle we had. But he thought the same thing so I looked for it to make sure we weren't crazy.

Agree. Just watched it on Youtube and even though the camera angle wasn't perfect, if that play had been reviewed it clearly would have been called back

Probably not reviewable, you know, like a forward propulsion.

I rewatched the game and didn't even notice it until you mentioned it.  Appears to be forward pass.

Good thing it didn't matter.
