With a field full of liquored-up ASU fans surrounding them? Highly possible.

The intentional grounding miss is what was most upsetting to me

You mean cause they were so intimidated they didnt even credit Chase w/a catch?

They sent a receiver down the right side of the field and I thought he threw rig

It landed 18 yards out of bounds

RenoCoug

Exactly, if he threw it 20 yds away from the receiver the other way it's obvious

ESPN anchors said it was grounding when they reviewed the game during the utes

here's to hoping

9:18pm

Then the Utes were penalized for it in a less egregious throw.

Exactly …correct call

It was not grounding. They sent a receiver down that side of the field.

Brigham

Wrong ..it is grounding by rule

DoctorEvil

QB threw the ball into the stands... No where near the receiver

Did they also say intentional grounding doesn’t apply on end of game plays?

According to the clock, the game was over. So I can see that. I'd still like an

Kalani said it was grounding. And the penalty was enforced

If it was enforced why did the ball stay in the same place?

It was not enforced.

He said it was I.G., but not called.Ball would have been from where QB passed

I can see not calling a penalty because it’s not the team’s fault what the fans

Ooooh, the days when the crowd got two penalties in one drive for being too loud

If it’s not during the play, I’m not sure you want to penalize the team for the

DieHarder

So why penalize the team when fans throw things on the field? See Texas v UGA

Each conference gets to decide their own rules and enforcement

Polecat

Key being the ASU coach not worrying about safety of the officials at that point

ABCoug

To be fair, the clock showed zero. It’s OK for fans to react the game is over.

bluebrotha

Shouldn't they follow whatever the NCAA rule is?

durandal

Wonder if there's an NCAA rule that would even govern that.

fattycoug

Kind of odd that the rule can differ between conferences

BenTheBoss

I wonder if they worry that opposing fans will dress as home fans to

That would be wild lol. Either way though that’s a security issue that the host

What about their coach chirping at the refs nonstop and further delaying things?

westsidecoug

6:08pm

So just let the fans on the field for the end of every game.

Bluedarts

What about for the HC trying to bite the refs head off?

He said the refs told him there was intentional grounding and that’s why the ball was at the 50. Shouldn’t it have been

ASU took two delay of game penalties at the end on purpose. They were on the

The throw was closer to the ASU 41

Kalani said the refs told him there was intentional grounding. It’s clear that they didn’t mark that off.

41 but yeah

They’re trying to be the opposite of the whole “SEC fining people” thing

Oh, you can guarantee the Big 12 will fine the pants off ASU. There is a reason

I know for a fact Big 12 takes player safety seriously.

I bet it goes untouched, like the grounding, and the rest of the conduct
