Heck - even I understood the joke. At first I was looking at what Mike Stoops (he's got a white hat and a headset) was doing, and then I realized it was one of his assistants with his hands over the headset cans looking sort of like the loss of down signal.
A bunch of us who saw the game were discussing odd "who would have thought of that?" theoretical rules issues in addition to a PF/RTP after the 2nd pass. Of course PI can't be called since it's not a legal forward pass. As far as I can tell, any contact that would be considered a block would be legal. I'm not sure what would happen if it's an illegal forward pass and the defender wraps up or grabs the receiver (of the illegal forward pass) before it gets to him. I thought that would be defensive holding, but it sort of boggles the mind that it would get called since it's an illegal forward pass. Or is the illegal forward pass considered a fumble where it's legal to grab and push?
