Kalani confirmed that the refs were going to give BYU a safety if they declined the PI. But he essentially said he

You can't look at an NFL rule book and expect it to tell you NCAA rules. Here is

The reason I mentioned the NFL rule book is because I figured there could be a difference.

Here is a link to the NCAA rulebook. It's free to download. Also, don't take it

Smart, they had good field position after accepting the penalty anyway.

If the game had been close, taking the 2 points would have been a no-brainer.

It was 7-7 at that point in the game.

But it was also kind of clear what was going to happen.

So, if it had been accepted, would Zack have gotten credit for the two points?

What game/play is the OP referring to? I’m not remembering this play

PI call where Milne was tripped.

The guy who caught it ran 10 yards into the EZ, making it a safety.

right call

I think in most cases you take the 2 points

KS knows the potential for Zach to be drafted, and shiny stats matter. IMO shows

I would agree with you if the score was close or mattered. But we were pounding

Like I said.. not that big a deal.

byukarl

10/28/20 8:49am

We weren’t pounding them at that point. It was tied.

10/28/20 8:59am

You are correct. For some reason, I thought it happened much later in the game.

When did he say this?

Does anyone have video of that play. I thought it was more momentum that

Players get 5 yards, and he went 10. Even if you go into the EZ, it's not a

TailgateU

I guess I didn’t notice it was that far. Seems like he only took 2 steps.

davidmj10

10/28/20 10:14am

Spirit of the rule, i think he should have been fine with momentum. Not sure he could have stopped himself.

10/28/20 10:18am

I don't like this; hate when coaches encourage chasing stats

10/28/20 10:07am

That Int and decrease in comp % could be the difference in Zach

Wilson isn't winning the Heisman. He'll be lucky to even be a finalist

I know.

He won't win, but at this point he may be a finalist.
