Beautiful.  Just for clarification: Saw some chirping on the social web that the Ducks got away with an illegal forward pass. False. If this were to happen back in 2008 or so, then yes, this could’ve gone either way, since it looked like Bennett came awfully close to breaking the plane. However, the NCAA adopted the NFL’s method of ruling on this play (remember the Eli Manning play/Coughlin’s challenge negated the flag) in which the QB’s entire body must cross the line of scrimmage in order for a flag to be thrown. Clearly, Bennett didn’t. Touchdown confirmed #FogHorn  —- GIF cred: bigleaguesports - photo cred: Christian Petersen
