That is what they decided but he was already down before the bobble or the chance for the ground to cause the incomplete. Again IMHO.

I thought looking at the several replays on the TV in slow motion that BLM's arm was going forward as he was going down. Should have been an incompletion and an intentional grounding call, since he was in the grasp.

"in the grasp" -that's a pro rule I believe. If you're talking about fumble at the 1 it was a clean play

When they ran the play in very slow motion, it appeared that Bo's arm did a slight flick forward, perhaps it was the torque of the tackle or the camera angle or even gravity, right before he hit the ground and the ball squirted out. From at least that angle it looked like they could have called an incomplete pass. But then again, I was looking for that, not where the ball was placed. Since I assumed that UH could score in 4 downs from the 1 yard line. Yes that was the fumble at the one where he separated his shoulder.
