October 6, 201313 yr Author Touchdown Northwestern. Play came out of the Wildcat formation, with the other QB making the TD grab. PAT is good and it's 7-3 Northwestern. Crowd is really into it.
October 6, 201313 yr Author Northwestern gets the stop, but Ohio State downs the punt down inside the 1. Going to be tough sledding to start the drive for the Wildcats.

OK, remind me on the touchback rules - if you run into the end zone and then leap back into the field, touch the ball before your feet hit back in, is that not a touchback? Not to mention that his foot was on the end line.

Not to mention that his foot was on the end line. Not positive on the touchback ones. I'd guess that once you go into the end zone, you have to re-establish your position outside of it (presumably by getting both feet out) before being able to down it.
October 6, 201313 yr Really thought NW might be a paper tiger... happy they're showing otherwise. This has been fun so far.

So basically the officials, and then the replay official, blew it on both calls.
October 6, 201313 yr Author Both teams chewing up tons of yards against one another. Ohio State has driven down inside the ten and have second and goal.

October 6, 201313 yr Author Wow. What happened on that throw? Did his arm get hit or did someone get a part of the ball? Something definitely went wrong.
