REPLY: NCAA rules (12-3-2b) allows review of "a legal forward pass touched by an ineligible receiver." Since an NCAA player who goes out of bounds of his own accord loses his eligibility (unlike Fed), this play was reviewable. That's all the replay booth reviewed. They didn't attach the penalty; the crew on the field did once they were told that the replay official told them that the Ole' Miss receiver was OOB and was first to touch the pass.
