Louisiana Ranked No. 23 in Preseason USA Today/Amway Coaches Poll

Did his knee hit the ground?

No but the ball did while in his hand. I could be 100% wrong but I thought if a runner touches the ground with the ball it’s a dead ball. If you go back and watch the replay Napier is arguing the same thing.

Don't think that's the case. He is only down if any body part except feet and hand touch the ground. I could not find a rule about what happens is you touch ball to the ground while in possession of ball

[Big Buds]

It’s a good question regardless. I definitely remember being HOT last year when they didn’t call it!

No the play is a live play.

No the play is a live play.

Absolutely correct. No part of his body other than hand or foot touched the ground.

Thank y’all for the clarification

The ball is part of the hand, it is not down, it was the correct call.

Were you at Lowes on Friday? I thought I saw you but it was a crazy day and I was trying to get out of there.

Yessir! Finally in town for an extended period of time with these storms rolling through. Trying to get some things done around the house before Austin.
