NCAA rules concur with James. A simultaneous catch causes the ball to become dead and the ball belongs to the team last in possession. Remember though, both players must have control of the ball and they both must return to the ground with one foot or some other part of their body at the EXACT time to rule siultaneous catch. If one returns to the ground first then that is a catch or intereption and the ball remains live.
