As timing would have it I just turned on the game with :31 to play. The receiver appeared to step on the end line then caught the game-tying TD in the endzone.
NCAA officials: What's the ruling on that?
Fed officials: It was IP by rule.
For Fed most of the time officials said they would rule incomplete but I don't know HOW they could do that in this situation. The receiver was running parallel to the endline then stepped on the chalk with his left foot and came about a yard in bounds to catch the TD. From the camera angle they had it looked as if he had clearly stepped out of bounds.
