1. How about that Tucker "fumble" that wasn't a fumble! The dude had his progress stopped a full 2 seconds before that ball was stripped. If Cuse stripped a ball like that, the refs would have said the runner's forward progress was stopped

2. Good Ole Jeff Hafley. This game was less about the game and more about getting Hafley on camera as much as possible. Go back and look at the game. The dude was literally on camera in between almost every play. What was that garbage?

The good news ...run defense started to stiffen. More completions over the middle. And Morgan can throw on the run
 
worse was the next play BC ran the same play and the same thing happened, he didnt fumble but they blew the whistle.. that was a terrible call.
 
The two fumbles calls really hurt. That was not a pass. What is the tuck rule in CFB?
 
I think that play in the Pros is a fumble.. not sure if college uses the same rule.. but it should have been reviewed in either case..
 
Agree with all this, seemed like the refs wanted to keep us arms length away.

How they didn't call the TD on Morgan's run was telling, I truly can't see a reason for the ref not calling the TD in the first place, and the replay gave plenty of evidence it was a TD as well.

It wasn't conclusive that the ball was inside the pylon. But the ball was spotted an inch outside the 1 when it should have been an inch outside the goaline.
 
Every angle showed the ball past the line.. not if you want to argue it was outside the pylon maybe you could but to mark it at the 1 is dumb.. If his feet are in at the 1 and the ball is inside his feet then yeah its not at the 1.. if the ball had been in his left hand you could make a case..

It was very conclusive. His entire body was in bounds, and he reached forward with this right arm, there is no way possible his right arm was out of bounds.

Should have been a td but it didn't really matter they scored on the next play and we were never winning anyway.

Mark Packer on the ACC Network tweeted that very thing. He said no way Tucker fumbled, it was way after forward progress
