That's like the guys who used to flip the ball as they scored, the only problem was that a few did it before they actually crossed the goal line. Also, celebration rules are stricter in HS, so it's not like they've come to a stricter system and have to learn. Agree but it should not take a TD away.

You beat SMU but the refs took it away. Terrible! I dunno about Tulsa but that game was apart of my 7 team teaser. The score I teased it to? SMU -3.5. So I’m pretty ecstatic.

It helps leagues status to have a 6-2 SMU at the expense of Tulsa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that this gets to be decided on the field. Nice locker room material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as the ball crosses the line, a TD is scored, and the play is OVER. Full stop. Points stand. Regardless of what follows. If anything happens after the play, they cannot go back and change the results of the previous play. EVERY other penalty in football is like this. This rule must die!

Much as I would like to hope the refs would call the game in favor of the front-runners (it's for the good of the league), there is no conspiracy here. If it ever got out, the entire league would be kicked out of the NCAA. So, no, it's not happening. Every individual ref has their own bias, and they all make mistakes, but there's no "there" there on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the flag was thrown before the TD. The guy dance stepped on the 15 yard like or whatever it was. So technically it was blown dead right there.

It was before he was in the endzone, but it was a horrible flag and is a horrible rule. That was not unsportsmanlike.... dude just had a rush after a big play.
