By rule, that was very much not a blind side block

Yeah that was a bad call.

They were face to face when they hit. If that's a blind side hit, every block is a blind side hit

Except maybe the ones from behind…

Sometimes I think there should be a way to quickly correct egregious miscalls

Professional rugby has a TMO (television match official)

That’s why I was so confused. Rooati was I. Front of the guy well within his

Even worse that two officials threw flags.

I didn't catch that. Instinctual. Should have discussed and picked up flags

tiloman

The second guy only threw the flag because the first person did. As soon as

Yep quite literally not a blindside, he lowered his own shoulder to hit ropati

You could see Ropati pleading that exact case to the official repeatedly

RUNBYU1

10/12/24 4:31pm

TV guys saw it as a no-doubt penalty. Ropati ran away from LOS to make the block

But that is not the rule. At all.

Weird because multiple officials through flags and all agreed and the announcers didn’t say anything either

The refs don't have the benefit of replay, they saw a hard hit that looked like

Thank you. I very much appreciate learning these types of nuances.

The announcers said it was because he came back inside and made the hit. Made it

It is not.

Hans explained it well in the radio broadcast. It has to do with the player

It is not. That is not the rule. At all.

Take it up with Hans. I trust his insight. Once a running back gets to line of

Robert Baratheon

10/12/24 10:32pm

He is wrong. He is referring to the NFL rule, which is very different from NCAAF

tiloman

10/13/24 12:04am

Yes it is. Hans, broadcasters, and my post below all confirm it.

Well all he had to do was get in the way and it would have been enough

This is a rule from 2019, I believe. Here is the verbiage:

10/12/24 10:41pm

This is not the rule. You are quoting the NFL rule. NCAAF rule is as I stated it

tiloman

10/13/24 12:03am

You are quoting NFL Rule 12-2-7. No similar rule for NCAAF.

tiloman

10/13/24 12:07am

The NCAA uses the same verbiage and has the same rule.

10/13/24 8:49am

It does not. At all. Anywhere.

tiloman

10/13/24 8:54am

So college refs just made it up? Guys that don't referee in the NFL at all and aren't expected to know the NFL rule book

10/14/24 10:09am

This isn't hard

tiloman

10/14/24 11:46am

The facts of the play wrong? So why did the refs call it in the first place?
