    Does the defender have to have two feet or one foot in bounds for an interception? Peterson without a doubt had one foot in and it certainly looked like two. Also, CBS showed a replay just after the catch from a camera angle looking straight down the sideline that clearly showed both feet were in. They only showed this camera angle once and never showed it again. Anyone else see that?

    Oh yeah, we saw it, the gumps saw it, and the rest of America saw it. The best angle of the play was from the end zone camera and it clearly showed both feet in. Conveniently, CBS only showed that angle once, but the replay booth has the benefit of looking at all available angles as many times as they want, so it's still baffling how they were able to come to the conclusion that they did.

    BTW, in college, only one foot down is required.

    An interception in the state of Alabama requires the away team to have three feet in bounds. It was the correct call. :hihi:

    First, TH returning the kickoff 50 yards won the UGA game for us and Scott would have easily scored from 15 yards further.

    Second, you're a douche.

    maybe they require the ball to be tucked for the first foot to count.
