The R threw a flag (and correctly called a 15-yd facemask) and let the play develop, but the announcers claimed that in college football, the ball is dead as soon as a player's helmet comes off. I figure they were just plain wrong, but I wanted to get confirmation.

It appears that Dave Parry (Big 10 assignor and national coordinator) has won the mechanics war. There are standardized NCAA mechanics published by the CCA just like basketball and baseball and the latest issue of Referee talked about Parry standardizing mechanics nationwide.
