...Mathews is 6'6" with a 37" vertical and Porter is only 5'9" or so. There's absolutely no way he's going to beat Mathews in a jump ball situation. Pushing Mathews away from the ball was the ONLY option he had.

If you can't beat em, have the refs beat them for you.

BYU WR realized he had no shot at the ball and pulled the DB down on top of him

At 7:56 of the posted video your DB has Matthews by the sleeve. That was the

that's the 2nd half of it. Think it through for a second. It's a jumpball pass..

correct, from more than one angle you can see that...

I agree, plus the other angles show the WR pulling the defender down

After contact.

Contact initiated by the DB while the ball was in the air and before it got to

Which is literally cheating. Utah and their PAC 11 refs cheated to win that game

The DB can't hold or impede the WR from getting to the ball.
