I'm sure Billy will tell us why the clock wasn't running.

Also, I wanna know how it's not a safety when THEY SPOT THE BALL FOR THE NEXT PLAY WITH THE NOSE ACROSS THE GOAL LINE.

It's the nose that faces the defense that matters.

By the way, the Kansas receiver STILL hasn't caught that pass. Game was still 42-24 as far as I'm concerned. Horsepoopy!

Rule 8, Section 5, Article 1:
It is a safety when:
a.
The ball becomes dead out of bounds behind a goal line, except from an
incomplete forward pass, or becomes dead in the possession of a player
on, above or behind his own goal line, or becomes dead by rule, and the
defending team is responsible for the ball being there.


If it's spotted with any part of the ball over the line, the player must have been on or above his own goal line.
