REPLY: TxMike's answer for NCAA is correct; Jim Neil's answer for Federation is correct. The Federation allows the batting of a fumble in flight (what this appears to be) regardless of direction. In no way can this action be interpreted as a forward pass.
By the way Mike, if I remember the Peach Bowl scenario, the officiating crew did incorrectly rule it an illegal forward pass. Not sure, but I believe that the R was Mr. Bible.
