Give this a watch.

I was hoping, it would go Bama way. But you really can't tell how it was watching the radio!

that was definitely our ball.

the way i saw it, our guy had it with both hands basically to his chest and the auburn player only had 1 hand on it. it was that way then they went to the ground and out of bounds. at that point the play is over and it is an interception.

Should have been our ball and that's all I'm going to say about that.

Yep. That one hurt me at the time.

It was obvious to me Sylve had control of the ball and was in-bounds. I went absolutely titanic at that call.

To me it looked more like Sylve had both hands on it and the receiver only had one hand on it until they landed and went out of bounds.........Having said that, simultaneous catch goes to the offense. (like tie goes to the runner). I don't think they caught it together. Sylve caught it first.

That should have been the case in 2011 in the 9-6 game against LSU when Michael Williams went up to make the catch at about the 10 yard line for us, but was ruled an INT. We all know how that turned out.
