Alls that matters is QB has to be behind the LOS

I just want to head this off now - there were definitely plays this year when both players were beyond the LOS, which is what Mav is talking about. There might have been plays where only the back was beyond the LOS which would be what 55 is talking about.  We all understand the rules, announcers are dumb, we get it.

 
You know not to go too tin foil hate but they were super quick to initiate that review in the MSU game where it was a pretty clear legal lateral by Martinez. I feel like we rarely get a play reviewed and if we do it takes until the last possible second.

Agreed. It was super frustrating.

I guess it can viewed as a free timeout for us (but also for the defense).

I can't remember what game, maybe Fordham, where they were short on 3rd down but got spotted the 1st. Then frost called a time out and they go to commercial but still never review the play

How embarrassing for those refs to not understand the rules of football given that it's their job.

What rule didn't they understand? The quarterback was beyond the line of scrimmage and the ball moved forward. The ball leave's Logan's hand at the 11, and the pitch man catches it close to the 10.

Eh, I'm not sure it's really all that clear.  If it's straight down the yard line it should have been legal.  I don't think there's a clear enough shot to show if it's forward or not.

All I know is the official was reaching for his flag while the ball is in the air.  So he pretty much decided it was illegal as soon as he started to pitch it.  Which seems ... not right.

We don't have a camera directly down the line, but I don't think we need it.

The lines I mocked up only serve to support what you can clearly see with your eyes in motion that the ball did not travel backwards or even straight sideways. This view had virtually no camera movement at all, and while it's not fool proof on its own the body of evidence from all available sources is. I spliced the pitch man receiving into the corner, and unless the ball changed drastically in height off the ground, it clearly moved forward.
