That probably makes the most sense.

No doubt. No way in hell OSU, sitting home this weekend, should move to 3 when TCU lost in the title game in OT for their first lost. Plus OSU got housed at home just last week and I don’t think anyone wants a UM-OSU semifinal rematch

No. The rules guy on the broadcast team said it essentially was just like a partially blocked punt (he described it as a "kick from scrimmage"). A missed FG try only goes back to the LOS (or the 20 yard line) if it goes into the end zone and the Georgia player picked it up on the 5. LSU could have run over and downed it or if the ball stopped moving and the refs blew the whistle to end the play, it would have been Georgia's ball on the 5. The ball was not going to be placed back at the LOS or on the 20.

no thats not true..

Here's the quote from the NCAA Rule book

Catch or Recovery by Receiving Team
ARTICLE 5. If a player of the receiving team catches or recovers a scrimmage kick (and a field goal attempt is a scrimmage kick), the ball continues in play (Exceptions: Rules 4-1-3-g, 6-3-9, 6-5-1 and 2) (A.R. 8-4-2-V).

Catch or Recovery by Kicking Team
ARTICLE 6. a. If a player of the kicking team catches or recovers a scrimmage kick that has crossed the neutral zone, the ball becomes dead (A.R. 6-3-1-IV). The ball belongs to the receiving team at the dead-ball spot, unless the kicking team is in legal possession when the ball is declared dead. In the latter case, the ball belongs to the kicking team. (Exception: Rule 8-4-2-b). b. If opposing players who are each eligible to touch the ball simultaneously catch or recover a scrimmage kick, the simultaneous possession makes the ball dead. A kick declared dead in joint possession of opposing players is awarded to the receiving team (Rules 2-4-4 and 4-1-3-l).

Out of Bounds Between Goal Lines or at Rest Inbounds
ARTICLE 7. If a scrimmage kick goes out of bounds between the goal lines, or if it comes to rest inbounds and no player attempts to secure it, the ball becomes dead and belongs to the receiving team at the dead-ball spot (Exception: Rule 8-4-2-b).

Out of Bounds Behind Goal Line ARTICLE 8. If a scrimmage kick (other than one that scores a field goal) goes out of bounds behind a goal line, the ball becomes dead and belongs to the team defending that goal line (Rule 8-4-2-b).

Touching Ground On or Behind Goal Line ARTICLE 9. If a scrimmage kick untouched by Team B beyond the neutral zone touches the ground on or behind Team B’s goal line, the ball becomes dead and belongs to Team B. (Rule 8-4-2-b) (A.R. 6-3-9-I-II).

It's on page 74 of this.

yup.. If a player of the kicking team catches or recovers a scrimmage kick that has crossed the neutral zone, the ball becomes dead (A.R. 6-3-1-IV). The ball belongs to the receiving team at the dead-ball spot,

if the team recovers the ball., if they dont it goes back the LOS of the kick
