Sorry if Germans, probably sour grapes but did Shipley fumble?


Oct 3, 2022, 7:41 PM

Watching it in real time, it didn’t even occur to me. I was listening to an ACC podcast and the NC state homer was adamant Shipley fumbled it out of the end zone and it should have been pack ball. IMO, refs gave them the last 7 so we are even ? Just curious on your take

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

No. Knee was down before the ball came out.


Oct 3, 2022, 7:44 PM

Was still holding it against his chest when his knee hit. NC State dude was wrong.

Re: No. Knee was down before the ball came out.


Oct 3, 2022, 7:51 PM

You are correct. I googled it for the heck of it and of course the first thing that popped up was a discussion on a coot forum saying it was a fumble ? They are a pathetic bunch.

Re: No. Knee was down before the ball came out.


Oct 3, 2022, 9:09 PM [ in reply to No. Knee was down before the ball came out. ]

I agree. He still had control of the ball when his knee was down. The play was dead at that point. Ball came loose after he crossed the goal line. Had his knee NOT been down it would’ve been a fumble OOB & State’s ball on the 25.

Re: No. Knee was down before the ball came out.


Oct 3, 2022, 9:54 PM

If it came loose AFTER he crossed the goal line it would have been a TD, not a fumble.

Re: Crown to the Body on a Fully Active and Mobile Offensive


Oct 3, 2022, 11:59 PM

Forcible contact with the crown of the helmet to any part of a player is targeting. It doesn't matter if the player isn't defenseless and doesn't matter if the contact is to the head or neck. It's the side of the targeting rule designed to protect the defender. Leading with the crown like Mukuba did on that hit is what paralyzed Ryan Shazier.

Glad we agree it wasn’t targeting.***

That was a tough call. Makuba's helmet hit the shoulder pad.


Oct 3, 2022, 10:11 PM [ in reply to Was it really targeting by Makuba? ]

Maybe a 15 yarder for lowering the head, but he never should have been ejected.

The call that irked me the most was when the wusspack player gave a hard shove to Shipley as he was taking a step out of bounds. Obviously it wasn't necessary and was unsportsmanlike. There was absolutely no need for it, and there was a freakin ref right there. Shipley went flying into the sideline and could have seriously hurt himself or someone else.

Now THAT is the type of fiagrant, asinine play that should have drawn a flag and ejection, but alas the awesome ACC ref didn't throw a flag.

Re: Was it really targeting by Makuba?


Oct 3, 2022, 11:53 PM [ in reply to Was it really targeting by Makuba? ]

Yes. Pretty textbook really.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Actually, yes. It was probably a fumble. I think a lot of people here are probably biased.


Oct 3, 2022, 7:54 PM

Would have been hard to overturn whatever the call was on the field, but there was an angle that sure looked like it could have been loose prior to the knee hitting.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Not at all.


Oct 3, 2022, 10:13 PM

The ball wasn't loose when the knee hit. It was moving, but he still had the ball in his possession when his knee touched. That's NOT a fumble. No bias at all. That's why they didn't call it a fumble after the replay.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I’m not sure I understand. If a ball is moving indirect of the guy’s


Oct 4, 2022, 7:13 AM

arms/hands then that’s typically when possession is lost.

And honestly I don’t think they were reviewing the fumble. Yes, they could have, but I think it was pretty obvious his knee was down and that’s what they called.

But there was only one angle where you could see it more clearly (only shown once on the broadcast). And I said above, even though I think it was a fumble, I think the play would have stood regardless if it was called one or not (it wasn’t).

Oct 4, 2022, 7:23 AM

https://youtube.com/shorts/04TCSnwXM9Q?feature=share

It’s the last replay the show in the clip. When the broadcast freezes his knee being down, the ball is already coming out. That would signify it’s probably a fumble. Would still be hard to overturn since the ball is so close to his body; but it’s very likely he didn’t have possession at that point.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Yes, it is moving. But never out until after down.


Oct 4, 2022, 1:40 PM

No fumble. They play is dead the micro-second his knee hit.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You might be confusing it with a reception question?


Oct 4, 2022, 1:38 PM [ in reply to I’m not sure I understand. If a ball is moving indirect of the guy’s ]

It's different when you already have possession. The ball can move or you can be switching hands or whatever, but if the ball is still in your possession when you become down, then it's not a fumble. That's the key - he never lost possession until after he was down.

Make sense?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

While I appreciate your responses, I think you may be confused with the


Oct 4, 2022, 2:10 PM

catch rule. It states in the notes “Movement of the ball does not automatically result in loss of control.” Like if you’re tucking the ball or switching to the other arm, or if the ground moves the ball when you go down yet you still have possession.

We’re talking about a fumble here though. The opposing player dislodged the ball out of his arms. In this scenario, if the ball is loose before he establishes himself as down, then it is considered a fumble.

In this case, it would have been hard to say one way or the other, but slow motion shows that there was a reasonable doubt that he HADN’T fumbled. Obviously not conclusive, so wasn’t overturned.

If the booth freebies it and didn't determine it to be a fumble,

you can't say we're biased for saying it wasn't a fumble.

I thought it was a fumble from the replays on the scoreboard


Oct 3, 2022, 8:02 PM

Haven’t watched it at home yet. But so what; it was close enough to stand upon review, and our D absolutely dominated nc state in the second half. The only success they had the entire half was that last drive when the result was no longer in doubt and the D kinda let up a bit.

Oct 3, 2022, 8:26 PM

But, if he was not down I think he lost the ball before it crossed the goal line. Not sure there was enough evidence to overturn it, though. Very close.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Review ruled him down at the 1,no TD


Oct 3, 2022, 8:33 PM

Surely if they had enough evidence to rule it a fumble , they would have.





Question, because I don't know, but the NCS player knocked the ball out of the EZ ? How's that handled if it was a fumble at the one yard line carried momentum into the EZ to be knocked OOB by the other team ?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Review ruled him down at the 1,no TD


Oct 3, 2022, 9:54 PM

It would be a turnover. It’s a rare form of touchback, State would get the ball at the 25.

It’s a pretty well hated rule. But we’ve also been the beneficiary, Kvon Wallace saved the game because of that rule against A&M in 18.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Review ruled him down at the 1,no TD


Oct 3, 2022, 11:14 PM

First I think it’s a stupid rule no matter if it’s benefited Clemson or not it. It should go away. To me it should be handled just like if a player fumbles the ball in the field of play. If the ball continues to go forward, no one recovers it, and it eventually goes out of bounds then the ball is placed where the offensive player last possessed it. The defense never had possession to begin with so why would they be awarded possession if they didn’t recover the ball either.

That NCS player was well coached.


Oct 4, 2022, 4:40 AM [ in reply to Review ruled him down at the 1,no TD ]

He was trained to knock any fumble which rolled across the goal line out of the endzone knowing it was a turnover. That's how it's done.

Oct 4, 2022, 7:16 AM

it would actually stay Clemson ball. You have to do it discretely if your intent is to make it go out of bounds for a touchback. I know weird, right?

You could make the argument it was a incomplete pass. He seemed to be struggling to control the ball all the way to the goal line. I think there's not enough evidence to overturn anything that was called on the field.

To me there were a few flags that should not have been. The PI in the endzone to give State its first TD. Then on the very next drive the State player doing the exact same thing yet no PI was called. On the last drive the State o-lineman shoved our d-lineman into the QB to take the INT away and extend the drive. The zebras made a lot of calls that hopefully the ACC will talked with them about. No need for them to influence/interfere in a great game.

knee was down before the ball crossed the goal line. No officials like overturning a call on the field. They protect themselves from criticism if at all possible and overturning the TD call was enough to satisfy any questions in their minds.

That would not have changed the outcome of the game, imo. It's in the books now.
