Please educate this broadcaster. In my 10 years of calling high school games, I've never seen a player run an interception out of the end zone. They always down it. Thus I always thought once the ball breaks the plane of the goal line, the ball becomes dead, just like in a kickoff or punt, except the ball becomes dead on the catch, not immediately when the ball breaks the plane in mid air.
