Iowa State v Baylor - Kicker Allegedly Called Offside
« on: October 09, 2011, 10:27:55 AM »
Anyone got a recording of this game?  8:08 in the 4th, Iowa State attempts an onside kick, offside is called against them.  Talking heads zero in on the kicker, who had his plant leg ahead of the ball, and claim it was called on him, which would be a rather interesting ruling.  Would like to see it for myself, though.

IF that was the call (highly doubtful), someone will be in serious trouble. By rule, the kicker and holder of a place kick free kick are exempt from the offside rule. Must have been someone else.

I saw the replay of the game.  The kicker is the only player in the neutral zone when the ball is kicked so I'm thinking somebody had a really unfortunate brain fart.

Someone posted a screencap from right before the clip.

It doesn't look good.

Not to be results oriented, but did team A recover the kick?

The call was on #7, who I believe was the 2nd man above the kicker on the photo.

I'm not an official, but lurk on this site cause because I love to read about these hard calls that refs have to make.  I watched this game last night, and registered to start a thread on this call but was beaten to it.

Did anyone see the play earlier in this game where a fumble as called on the field by the Baylor QB was overturned by booth review?  Was that an incomplete pass or a fumble?

Talking heads just drive me insane nowadays. Thank you, football officiating for ruining sports commentary for me.  LOL
