The defender tried to come up and make a play on the ball but slipped and fell in the mud. The receiver tripped over him and out came two flags from HL and BJ.

It was not a matter of defender just falling down. He came up to make a play on the defender and tripped him.

DPI

maybe in basketball if a defender comes up to make a play on the dribbler and slips and trips him its not a foul. But in football if you come up to make a play on a reciever and take his path away its a foul.
