I guess I never knew that. I get the call technically but it feels like a part of the play.

That is a total BVS Tennessee type of call.

Same as late hit out of bounds on 4th down. The instant you step out of bounds or start your slide, the play is over and the ball is turned over. Otherwise the officials have to make a judgment call on how many seconds the play has to be over before they decide the foul isn't part of the play.

Hm. Targeting happens during the play, i has the confuses. If he had stood up and then got leveled and drawn an unsportsmanlike, is that still a turnover? Because that makes sense. I dunno, what a weird situation, glad it screwed Clemson

You can certainly target someone after the play. Also unsportsmanlike penalties are always non contact fouls. If he would’ve ran like a man and not slid and then the Duke player targeted him they would’ve gotten the first down because the ball would’ve been live when the penalty occurred.

Lol, so if they threw the ball on 4th down and the receiver was hit in the head, do they go to the slow motion replay to see if the player was hit before the pass hit the ground? Because that's the exact same situation. I've certainly never seen that. And it would be absolutely absurd.

Dead ball fouls mean a specific thing. Fouls that happen while not in the course of play. That was very clearly a foul commited during the course of play. Even if it is somehow a correct application of the rule, it is a technicality and needs to be fixed, because that is crazy.

I still can’t wrap my head around that call. Not arguing you, just bizarre.
