True, but where it's getting called a lot now is because of the receiver

and not really the linemen. About half of the times I've seen it called this year, it's been a play designed to be a pass behind the line, and the running back or the receiver are going too far out and the lineman have released down field like they expect to be able to. I think it's getting looked at closer now just because of the type offenses so many teams are running.

Rewatching game. Many questionable flags, but the ineligible call on… -- PennaHokie 11/14/2021 2:37PM

Saw that and totally agree - the zebras sucked all night -- sacramento hokie 11/14/2021 8:12PM

Wasn’t that call an ineligible receiver? -- HokieSignGuy 11/14/2021 3:53PM

Ineligible receiver is when the receiver runs out of bounds and comes -- RJHokie 11/14/2021 3:58PM

That's illegal touching, not ineligible receiver. -- UEMcGill 11/14/2021 4:13PM

Ok….thanks for the clarification. ** -- RJHokie 11/14/2021 4:16PM

3 yds. I haven't heard any TV commentators mention it, but -- UEMcGill 11/14/2021 3:35PM

Seems always to negate an exciting play on a technicality -- uwhokie 11/14/2021 4:51PM

If the ball is thrown behind the LOS, the 3 yards does not apply. ** -- MCL3 Hokie 11/14/2021 4:21PM
