I love Gary, but sometimes he rushes a little when making a comment.
Two examples:
Regarding the danger of incurring a safety in a deep backed-up situation, GD stated that in the NFL, it's the nose of the football; in college, it's (any part of) the player's foot.
During the Iron Bowl, he questioned an ineligible player downfield call when an Auburn player in the tight end position was covered by a wide receiver (on the LOS); both went downfield on a forward pass play. He claimed it was just the misinterpretation of an unbalanced formation, and shouldn't have drawn a flag.

To his credit, he later clarified the IPD foul, and admitted that he was wrong. Maybe he got a call from Birmingham......
