A question, looking at the video posted online of the final play., why was he ruled out of bounds when to me he was clearly pushed (two handed forceable shove) and forced out of bounds before he landed. Yes, he landed out of bounds but NOT by his own doing or his own momentum! Did not think you could do that? Have to give the receiver the opportunity to land inbounds if receiver is in the air!Posted On: Oct 9th 2016, 5:52 PM #360767

It looked to me like he had one foot in bounds and one foot in the air when he caught the ball.
So, @KrisBartels blew up a still of our #FAU vid. See for yourself. Note toe on left foot clearly in bounds, ball caught well prior. #Robbed pic.twitter.com/UYIp8akmSD

We can all cry about the bad call. The reality is, we didn't play well enough to even deserve to be in the position to throw a Hail Mary.
Here's an idea: Let's stop the excuses and start playing fundamental football.

If you were able to throw a hail mary and hit the receivers hands you played well enough to deserve it. Should never have come to this. What the hell does Trickett do at halftime? Does he go get a hot dog in the Acura lounge? His offense shuts down in the second half of each game.
Now, it looks like we were jobbed on the last play, oh well, I blame the tv contract.
And yes, we should NEVER have been in such a position but we were and we did execute the play and then got jobbed! This COULD HAVE BEEN the turning point for the program….but NO! So,me IDIOT replay official blew this by overturning the correct call on the field and HAD TO HAVE conclusive evidence to do so! WHAT WAS HE (or they) LOOKING AT?
Just ANOTHER sad chapter in FAU football history now!
