There is a debate on one of the message boards about the FSU player's right hand grabbing under the shoulder pads of the Auburn player. Some say it is holding, others say it is not. I don't know, so that is why I asked here.

Is he being taken down?
Is he prevented from movement? Is it a material restriction? Does the offensive player have stronger legs (driving the opponent backwards)? Who knows, you cannot tell anything by a still pitcher. Peace

Nothing to debate LG. It may be holding using the dictionary definition but what is the defender being prevented from doing? Think advantage/disadvantage. This is why fans don't understand officiating and think we all suck.
What is the play? Where is the ball? What is he being prevented from doing? He ain't sacking the QB, he ain't defending the pass. He sure ain't gonna get the pick. I'm not sure why he is still blocking. The others have turned to watch. |

At the point in time of the photo the action in question is at the 5 yd line, the ball has already been thrown and appears to be 3-4 yds deep into the endzone. What advantage is being gained to make anyone want to call that?
