Yea if you choose to disregard the fact he was losing the ball as soon as he dove.
Where is the evidence for that?
Your imagination is not evidence.
The video evidence shows complete control with ball in grasp of left hand all the way to plane of goal. No separation, no wobbles, nothing but fingers and thumb on ball.
I don't mean to dwell on the past, but they showed the fumble from a different view on the local channel. During the broadcast, the side angle made it look like he never had control with his left hand, but in this video he clearly did. And from my vantage point, he maintained control until the very moment the ball separated from his finger tips.
This is the very reason why video evidence must be INDISPUTABLE. After seeing this video and going back to the side angle, I am more convinced that the evidence was NOT indisputable. If there is any shred of doubt, the call stands.
With all that said, I couldn't be more proud of our guys, and honestly, the biggest win today came on the recruiting front, and my best guess is we won BIG. GO VOLS!!!

Not true. There is a pic a couple of pages back that shows his thumb off the ball a half yard out.
he never had control in left hand, never.. once his right let go, ball was not controlled and that shot doesn't refute the other angle. the side shot was obvious he never had it and he would tell you that.. its bad luck but that is what it is
BS. I've seen every shot a zillion times. He clearly gripped the ball in his left hand intentionally for the final dive. Why in the hell would he release his thumb in the middle of the dive? That's absurd. He even turned the nose of the ball outward to complete the dive. That REQUIRES a thumb.
Facts are facts.
Where is your evidence?
Why should anyone who sees him clearly gripping the ball with his left hand and manipulating it's nose outward with zero separation believe he lost possession of the ball?
There is no evidence. Everyone got fooled by the initial video before it became clear that Pig deliberately changed the ball into the grasp of his left hand for the final dive.
He didnt release his thumb he never had the ball. You're right facts are facts.
They need to grasp at something when the video proves them wrong. The ball was clearly and deliberately moved to his left hand to gain extension for the dive. It never 'came out' of his right hand
