#53 for UL who was the right guard had a player lined up over him. The right tackle next to him had a player head up as well. The RT cut his player, the player on the RG tried to go in the gap between them, so the RG blocked him high. They were blocking two different players. Why was this called a chop block?

The U threw the flag, and it seems to be a case of seeing something that really wasn't there.
Didn't see the play but you can't block low on a kicking play so if it wasn't a chop it was still a block below the waist. Either way a 15-yard penalty.
