    Agree on that they normally get "special" treatment from the "dixie" refs. Seems I remember an interception overruled buy those "dixierefs".

    You shut your dirty mouf!

    That play was a thing of beauty. Why do you ask? Well let me tell you, because there are no tears like gump tears.

    That Clemson win made the off season tolerable. Greatest game result of the season. That play is a staple for both teams. Fair game.

    ... Moe, I'd feel the same as you, if the call had gone against a PAC team.

    In my link,.. " By letter of the rule, a wide receiver can't initiate contact when a forward pass is thrown"..... "Watch closely. He didn't initiate that contact," says Rogers Redding, the NCAA national coordinator of football officials...... "You can say that the defender initiated contact or that it was initiated mutually, but the offensive player did not initiate it."

    :cool: so, I guess that's the rationale for no penalty,.. but really it's very debatable, this probably sums it up best,.. "If you walk into a football coaches' conference and throw that play up on the big screen, half the room is gonna yell legal 'rub!' and the other half is gonna yell illegal 'pick!' and it's going to be the offensive guys yelling rub and the defensive guys yelling pick,"

    Understood but I still think it was a pick play, Dabo took the 50 50 chance it would be called a pick and won.

    Well, it absolutely is a pick play. No one I think would ever argue that.

    Almost every offense in the country on every level has pick plays in their arsenal and utilize them throughout any given season..
