Subdeacon Joe Posted September 11, 2016 Posted September 11, 2016 Now that was one heck of an ending! I don't understand why that safety didn't count, though. If Miami had thrown an Ave, Maria and scored, it would have counted even though time had run out. The safety should have counted.
Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Was not a safety cuz contact was initiated outside of end zone. Thus forward progress was ended at about the 1 or 2. Lots of interesting games today with some remarkable comebacks. Regards Gateway Kid
Subdeacon Joe Posted September 12, 2016 Author Posted September 12, 2016 AH! It looked to me like the QB had a foot in the endzone.
Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 Where was the ball? If in the field of play that would be the determining factor for forward progress. When the player is driven backwards towards his own goal line the spot would be the farthest forward point (towards the opponents goal line) would not matter if the player was picked up and carried back into his end zone (which is what happened) Regards Gateway Kid
