I'm guessing if it's directly into the pylon or field-of-play side of the pylon then easily TB. If it's to the outside of the edge (and it's
real obvious) then I guess you can say OOB ball on the 1-inch line. Which is what I was originally guessing around the play we have been discussing.
If the ball was stretched OOB and it's
real obvious it's
OUT AWAY from the pylon when the runner is airborne then I
guess you could make a case for the play being OOB vs. a TD. In my original post I had this technically being OOB all the way but when I read some of the messages I'm thinking perhaps I was wrong the whole time.
Does anyone know if there is a way to ask the Fed these kinds of questions and really get their official answer?
I see a lot of excellent (and valid) points being brought up here and in cases like this it would be nice to ask someone for a "final answer." Maybe Regis? :-)
