College football's That Was Too Cool To Overrule rule applied this afternoon in Blacksburg, where this 21-yard heave from Michael Brewer to Isaiah Ford was ruled a touchdown catch:
Via ESPN
The ball appears to be in contact with the ground. The ball appears to be breakdancing on the ground, drilling its way deep into the turf. The ball is building an apocalypse bunker beneath Lane Stadium. The ball has stocked up on canned pineapples and shotgun ammunition. The ball is getting its own reality show, coming this fall, about building its own survivalist tools out of mole bones, and also about ways to eat moles. That ball has declared itself lord of the moles, but the moles have revolted; the insurrection is being quelled. That's how in contact with the ground the ball is.
But it looked cool! 21-7, ECU, at the half.
