He maintained that the K team caught the touched ball beyond the LOS. I told him that is irrelevant. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
By the way, K shy of the Line-to-gain by about 1 foot after the advanced, botched punt, which was a relief to this Umpire!

It's not where either team touches the ball that matters. The only way K can advance a kick (blocked or otherwise) is if they cath or recover it behind the neutral zone. It is THIS spot that matters.
