They are probably enforcing the rule correctly..the problem is

if we show them the play before the game (which blows my mind we even trust doing this) and they kick the tires on it, there should either be a 'that's a legal play' or 'we will flag that because of this rule' type determination.

So if they knew about this rule then, the good faith relationship would expect that they reveal it, since that's the reason to show them the play.

If they didn't know about it then...when was it realized? While later researching ways to 'get us'? ..or did they have the epiphany right when the play happened after drinking a red bull?

That, combined with two other things makes them seem very fishy.
1) the inequity in how OL holding was being enforced. It seemed like they were 'searching' for holding calls against us (the ones they flagged were valid) while averting their eyes from UVA holds (Mills blew by them multiple times and was openly grabbed from behind).
2) the thing that bothered me the most was when the refs went quick so UVA could get a play off before replay could review the ball they dropped that was called a catch.

            • He wasn't hit. The ball bounced off his shoulder pads right to the oncoming coverage guy. - McIrish - 11:10am 11/18/24

      • ND showed the refs the formation & the play, but not the numbering of the players in formation. [NT] - SteveM - 10:19am 11/18/24

          • don't they mention 'if you do this you can't do that' No, the refs are only made aware of the play. - SteveM - 11:08am 11/18/24
          • None of us has any idea what was really discussed before the game - McIrish - 11:08am 11/18/24
    • Even if technically "right" did the penalty result in an advantage for ND? NFL don't care about #s. [LINK] - LanceManion - 7:31am 11/18/24
    • i haven’t heard the entire explanation, but the numbers thing is essential for football. [NT] - WestCoastIrishFan - 6:38am 11/18/24
    • The explanation was piss-poor. Perhaps someone here can do better. - NedoftheHill - 1:26am 11/18/24
      • MF's post game explanation wasn't all that great either. Extremely vague. [NT] - ELP - 7:54am 11/18/24
