No not an official just wondering. Just like all the people pulling one line from the rule book claiming it is the only thing under consideration. I'm no different and don't expect much from MSU fans but would like an officials opinion.

The rules seem to indicate that a completed pass in the end zone should be a touchdown.

The only requirement appears to be having progress stopped in the end zone.

Since the pylon is in the end zone and out of bounds his progress was stopped(by touching the pylon) in the end zone(by being in the end zone).
