Well, he still had possession when he had the ball pinned, before his knee touched. It was pinned against his body, and the UT player had to use force to pull it away from him after he was down.

And maybe that's what they ruled - I've seen identical plays where it was ruled the other way. They treated a pinned ball as if it were laying on the ground meaning there is no whistle until it is recovered or goes out of bounds. I know this may come as a shock, but there have been bad calls that have actually gone OUr way. Reading OU boards, I think about 1000 goes against us for every 1 that goes for us, but it has happened!Originally Posted by hornswaggled
To any and all who thought that was a fumble;
I'll give you a dollar if you could take that ball from Samaje's bicep.
Thought so.

Yes, we get 99.9% calls against us, but the refs made the right call this time.
I'd take a clear explanation by an expert referee over bravado, thank-you.
That at least makes sense, given the odds.Yes, we get 99.9% calls against us, but the refs made the right call this time.
No King Arthur here..

My two cents worth is that Perine's forward motion had been stopped before the ball was extricated from his possession....knee wasn't relevant.

So, I'm guessing there is still no update on the threads subject?
I heard something in the recap show, short inquiry from Blevins, asking about Ford's ankle injury update? Nothing from Stoops though, said he didn't have any details.
His leg has been amputated at the shoulder. He'll start on Saturday. It's a day-to-day decision. - Bob

Phew, glad to see it was a mere flesh wound!
This statement is 100% correct.
Woods didn't get tripped, that was someone else. Woods got hit by the ball carrier's helmet on the knee and had to retire from adventuring.
Ford out for WV

BOOMER SOONER

Damn. Thanks for the update.
Ross and Tonka will step up...throw in a bit of Daniel Brooks and we're good to go!

Perine will do great. It's Ross I'm worried about. I love him when he gets out in space, but he is too easy to stop in traffic.
I just hope Ford's back soon and at full speed.
Rocky Calmus played with a fractured fibula the week after he broke it. I wouldn't recommend doing that and it depends on the severity of the fracture.
Beware the man who would rule you for your own good. He will never cease. He will regulate every aspect of your life, destroy your liberty and enslave you, and sleep well convinced that he has made the world a better place.
Agreed, so let's get him out in space. Pass that on to JH please...
