Poinsettia Bowl Pylon Question

[Texas Aggie]

The R gave a clipping signal and announced, "Illegal block." Is the NCAA different from FED in this regard?

Not sure what fed is, but a clipping signal in NCAA is the right hand behind the right leg and (IMO) should be preceded by a PF signal since it falls under the PF rule. However, I'm not sure if that's required under the CCA manual. At any rate, I would, as an R, say "clipping" and not "illegal block," but clipping is an illegal block and maybe he just had a brain freeze when he turned on the mic. We've all been there.

If that's the worst thing that happened, then they had a great game.
