Last MN TD.

I felt it was a very questionable false start. I think he moved absolutely on the pinpoint of the snap, which saved him from it.

With that said, the holding was bad. Unfortunately, I think crews will differ and we'll get called for less of a holding than what MN did last night.

I think there were a few questionable calls both ways, though.

I think we scored at the goal line. I think Lenhardt was definitely held on the play he got called for the face mask, and there were some other holding calls that were missed too.

But I think NU got away with the roughing the punter as Polar Bear pulled their guy into him. And then I think Singleton got away with what probably should’ve been a pass interference.

Agreed. Not sure how that one didn't get overturned, or even called correctly on the field. I'm pretty sure Dean Blandino even said on broadcast it was a TD. He's the trainer and evaluator of NCAA replay officials.

This holding was the only one that jumped out at me as I was watching live. Edit, I don't know if it was to the level of calling it, but I thought it was suspect live from broadcast. It also could have been they were engaged, feet got tangled or tripped and they both were going to the ground.

This wasn't pass interference, this was a good play by the defense. The defender can make contact early if he is playing the ball, as long as he's not playing driectly through the back of the receiver.

I fucking hate when announcer go on a rant about a call or non-call in which they are wrong. It puts it into the audience's head that it was a missed call and that's what pass interference looks like.

@alt f4 can definitely correct me if I’m way off, but I don’t think that is a false start. It is exactly what Lane Johnson did against Nick Bosa in the NFC championship game this year. Not sure why it is considered legal, but supposedly it is.




I've received ICs (incorrect call) from a MAC official for calling false starts similar to this. The reasoning I also receive is, 1) did it cause defense to react and/or 2) did offense simulate the snap and/or 3) did the offense gain an advantage or 4) was it bang/bang with the snap? If 4 is true it's not a false start. I hate when we use the term bang/bang, because my bang/bang is different than the next official's bang/bang.


I would have had a false start and recieved an IC for it. The offense is trying to time that snap count and get a jump on the defense.

The defense does that same thing and is slightly in the nuetral zone before the snap, it's a offsides every time.

Regarding the pass interference, didn’t they also bring in Blandino on that and he said it should’ve been called? I agree it is annoying when the announcers do it, but I thought they brought Blandino in on that one too.

Was this the one in the 4th quarter with 4 min left? I don't think they brought him on for that. They typically only do if play goes to review.

Yeah that was the one I was thinking of. Must’ve been off in my thinking that they brought in Blandino.
