I'm not a fan of either teams (but I do have the misfortune of working with some Michigan fans) but wonder if anyone for flag a kicker for a FS? I white hat on Friday nights and have flaged running backs for doing this, but would have a real hard time hitting a kicker for the same thing.
Looks like illegal motion, though it's not an advantage for the place kicker. However, if you have such a hard time, what would you think about a punter's starting forward before the snap? That looks just as much against the letter of the law, but also an unfair advantage.
