Interesting about the yellow line but that’s unofficial of course and I’ve seen that be off several inches before. In this case I think the one where it’s left of the 40 is wrong. The yard marker looks slightly further than the yellow line in that shot so I’m guessing that’s why it was moved to the right side of the 40. Either way, that yellow line isn’t official. It sucks that we lost that game but I’m proud of the team. It’s truly stunning that they held an offense like Ole Miss to 7 in the second half.I just went and looked at the alternate angle. Warren's knee made contact just past the other side of the hash at the 41, maybe six inches. So the spot should have been at the 41 + six inches + the length from Warren's knee to the ball which would be somewhere close to 30 inches. It was extremely close. Those who are saying it was a good spot or "definitely short" are just guessing.

Also it is my understanding that the yellow lines come from sensors on the chains. Looks like the chains "moved" several inches during the play. I think in most cases the offense gets that call just not our night.

I don't need to look at "post #57". I looked at the ACTUAL GAME FILM. All these other angles and pictures are wrong. Bad camera angles and wrong time shot. All you have to do is look at the game film. It is not even close.
LOL. You mean the shot where he hits the ground on the other side of the first down marker? Your comment actually applies to every picture shown before my post that clearly shows that the shot was taken too soon and at a bad angle (cherry picked bad facts). The ACTUAL FULL SPEED GAME FILM shows it was a first down.You picked one frame out of "the game film" and declared it gospel. It doesn't work that way.
Wrong. I can show you another shot where he is even further down the field. I took the shot at the exact point that he hit the ground.That's not when he hit the ground. That's after he finished sliding along the ground. He was down about a yard and a half before that, when his right thigh first touched.
Pfft. They didn't have anything to review. The footage available kind of sucked. And nobody was anywhere around to see it. Had that been Corral running for the 1st down you can bet your murderous fanbase's asses that they would have seen it differently. But it's over now. We're allowed to vent.Maybe he didn't. And that would be a big deal if it hadn't been reviewed.

There is no way his pictures show his knee was down because it was not and it was behind his other leg and shielded from view on the actual game film. Maybe some other view seemed to show that, but again, that is a bad camera angle. His whole body hit the ground at the same time. You can slow the youtube video down and it is easy to see.You want to ignore the fine work @VFL-82-JP did, but he has several frames in which Warren's leg is on the ground from the thigh down well before the frame you pulled, and from the exact same camera angle as yours.

Maybe, but it looks fuzzy to me. I cannot tell if it's barely touching or not from that. So how did the ref see it from waaaaay back there so certainly without freeze frame close ups? Anyways.
