    Isn't that the NFL rule?

      could be and I think in the NFL the ball goes back to where it was fumbled if recovered by an offensive player. I could have sworn that I have seen refs move the ball back to the point of the fumble. Must not be a college rule though. I could be thinking of CA high school or the NFL.

        Right after the fumble I kept hoping that that rule applied and that it would have been 4th and goal. I had forgotten how badly I hate Tennessee because it has been a while since they were even relevant.

          I think it is the NFL rule resulting from the Raiders fumbling their way to a touchdown some years ago.

            "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                CU doing it's best to tell CSU they don't belong in a P5 conference. I mean if CU can destroy you, you've got some work to do.

                  This is great to see these B12 contenders poop their pants, either with big losses or small home crowds. Now we just need to pick up some wins. Not that they should or will make the decision based entirely on short-term success, but some momentum could really make it easier to get the bid.

                      Except that BYU needs at least one other team to look acceptable or they may not expand at all. I guess there are a few that haven't played yet. I don't think it will be much of a deciding factor though.

                        I want them to be thrilled with BYU and just ok with the rest of the options.

                          For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
