I’ve seen almost nothing about this other than a couple videos on Facebook, which you never know if they’re fake or not. But the poster of the Facebook video said there was an Arizona State field goal which was partially blocked but then it bounced through the goalposts. He said since it was partially blocked it was a live ball and should’ve counted three points as a field goal, even though it bounced first.
Suspicious of that story I texted a Texas alum I know in Houston and asked him about it. He had the game recorded so he watched it again and said that it was true the ball did bounce through the uprights. But the refs signaled It was no good when it hit the ground, and he considered that the end of the discussion.
So for the rules Experts on here, is a field goal considered good if it’s partially blocked and bounces through the uprights ? Would it make any difference that the refs called it No good, as it seems that would be an easy play to review.
