“The whole world”. Meanwhile my little tweet has just under 6000 views.
Bold of you to assume my opinion matters to anyone.
Have an amazing day. God bless

I hear what you’re saying. I respect the line of thought
2 issues
1) its not the middle of the field
2) theres a specific rule regarding the end zone/boundary and its not properly applied here
Regardless. We lost. Im not going to dwell on 1 play. It shouldn’t come down to that
If this happened in the middle of the field - pretend the sideline isn’t at play here - would you call this a fumble?
If yes, it’s a fumble, then it’s a catch.
If not, then it’s incomplete.
Go with the call on the field but I don’t think it’s a catch.

NCAA clearly got the call wrong in the @CanesFootball vs @NDFootball game. I personally have no dog in the fight but as a fan of the game its getting old watching the refs and replay officials get it wrong.
The NCAA has a rulebook for situations. Both situation #34 and #37 apply here.
The offensive player catches the ball, gets his required 1 foot in bounds, gets a second foot in bounds, takes a third step out of bounds. At the time the third step is taken, both the offensive and defensive player are both out of bounds. The defender swats the ball loose causing the offensive player to lose possession. Since the offensive player remained upright, had possession, made a football act, and was already out of bounds. The correct ruling is a catch for a touchdown.
The NCAA describes this sequence:
1. Receiver controls the pass and gets one foot down inbounds.
2. His other foot then touches out of bounds.
3. After a delay, a defender contacts him.
4. The receiver loses possession.
Official NCAA ruling: Completed pass.

The process of the catch is done after the toe tap in the endzone. Hitting the ball out of his hands once he stepped out should’ve been pointless to the catch . They can’t keep changing the definition of a catch every game , this is crazy miami got robbed

"Absolutely a touchdown ... the MOST TERRIBLE call!"
Do you agree with @BeanieWells26? 🤔

Its a TD the moment his feet touch and he’s standing upright. Contact comes after. Another foot touches. Ball gets stripped
2 RB sets put of shotgun get you there.
Multiple cute calls. Bunch formations. And QB runs.
Can’t get too cute in these moments. They couldn’t figure out the 2 RB set. Just stick with it next time
