The punt return call and the fumble

[Bull Matrix]

The refs were terrible. We get a better called game, then USF may have a chance. It was like the USF at Arkansas game in where the refs gave them that game.

There was def a hold, and if you look to the right of the hold a block in the back occurred too.

 

I do think it was an incomplete pass.

 

The announcer disagreed with the refs on every call it seemed.

[Apis Bull]

It was an incomplete pass.  You can't argue the law of physics.  The ball had forward momentum that can only occur if the arm is going forward.  A fumble would have gone backwards.

[Bear]

We still played like garbage

 

 

USF did not deserve to win

The ball ended up behind the quarterback.

It went forward out of his hand

2nd and 8 at USF 27:

Mike White sacked by Thomas Teal for a loss of 8 yards to the SFla 19 Mike White fumbled, recovered by NCSt Brandon Pittman , return for 0 yards

Unless White took a 7 to 10 yard drop...

Pretty sure he threw it from like the 23 and it landed on the 21. But that is just my crazy re watching games self.

Unless someone reaches around and hits the ball from behind before the arm is going forward.  It was a close call and had no bearing on the outcome. 

 

As for the punt return, looking at the position of the flag on the field live I thought the hold was far away from the play.  Watched the play at home the other day and they circled the guy that held.  And had he not held we wouldn't have returned the punt all the way.  Good call.
