C starts in the right position to watch in the match-ups near the throw-in. Once the TI is airborne, he's gotta know that the L can't help with this, so he has to be on his horse to get there. He didn't start moving to get a better look until the ball was almost the destination.

But hey, we all miss some.
Foul? On who? I see two players in equally favorable positions on a poorly thrown pass jumping towards each other.

I can see that the ball may have been loose just before he hit the floor, but splitting that hair in real time would be tough and it isn't even clear in slo-mo.

A's vector is definitely not towards B. A does jump so that his landing spot is on the same vector as the throw-in. But this is not illegal, and he is still afforded to land safely.

In the end zone view, I see B jumping towards and into A and the arm-length contact removes A's chance to land safely with possession because it throws off A's balance significantly.

I agree that catching the loose ball in real time is difficult. I thought it was only a suspect travel in real-time, and an easy call non-travel in slow-mo, but that may be my college football video training coming through (catch/no-catch). Nonetheless, I think the non-travel is the more accurate observation.

If the C didn't wish to call (or observe) a foul, giving the ball to A for the OB violation is an easy sell given that the travel is more likely not there than it is there.

Again, just a deeper explanation of my 2 cents.

I don't see a foul on B (he stays pretty vertical), and A doesn't travel, out off of gold, black ball. He was going to travel but dropped the ball. Great play for review.

Neither player was jumping "towards each other" but towards the spot the ball was being thrown to. B's landing spot was open when he jumped too and A just jumped into the same space.

I'd rather see a more patient whistle from the C and nothing but an out of bounds violation.

I do not have a foul on this play.

Nothing just a simple out of bounds.....

Slow down and let the whole play.......

Begin / Develop and Finish !!!!! ( according to the words of Al Battista )

I think it's clear in slow motion, but other than that, this is my thought on this after watching once.
