Looks down!

[OldNedDog]

Looks down to me also.

[westend1]

Not too helpful.  Looks like his knee is almost down, then the next pick shows the ball already out with his OTHER knee down.  Close enough where you could never blame a ref even if he got it wrong.  JMO

Photo #5 he's down! You have to click the arrows on the bottom left.

[Hotrodg]

He is clearly down and in posession of the ball in #5.

That being said, calling it live at full speed is quite different than frame-by-frame stills a week later.

[82 5A State Champs]

Looks like his knee is down in pic 5, and in pic 6 the ball squirts out.

[txcanes]

Tried to tell you that, but some folks are so convinced of what others tell them without seeing it themselves. this is what I saw when I advanced it frame by frame in slo mo! sorry - but that is not what lost the game for ya. Good luck next year, go Region 3.

[Guest rykerx144]

Oh hes down believe it or not! 

[AtascocitaLobo]

Looks like the ground caused the fumble to me which would make him down.  Was this a controversial call or something?  What was the call made on the field?

[txcanes]

Call was made no fumble on the field right away, whistle was blown, Beaumont player ran it back for a TD after the play was over. BC fans are convinced the refs blew the call. BC fans felt the refs called the game slighted towards FW - 5 flags 55 yards, BC 8 flags 75 yards. Lots of noise about this for the past 3 days! Just the background for this guy.

Looking at Picture #5 he was down.

[ozensfinest]

he was down

[rollinac]

He was down...end of controversy.

[1KatKiller]

Don't know who put the frame by frame pics together, but nice job. Appreciate the time & effort!

[Roughrider]

Well, enough said.

Central fans and players should be proud anyway.

I just would not bring the fumble up anymore.

He was down......

[BigWolf10]

yep i see control before ground contact.

[Bucof2010]

Photoshop :D

[Backflipper]

lol... Photoshop??? Thats funny.. I know we will never make the Central fans think that he was down but, HE WAS DOWN!!! Either way the official had a hard call to make and I think he made the right call. Honestly I would have rather it went the other way but, then the Friendswood folks would be in the same position as the Central folks are now.

Central,, I feel your heartache but yall should be proud of your great season and it would have been a waste of gas money to go to Kyle Field this week. (enough said)

[fatdaddy]

Outstanding job on the Pics. Just as I have said in another post, his knee hit, and THEN the ball popped out when his elbow hit the ground. Confirms what I saw right in front of me.

Sorry Jags, looks like his knee was down before the ball came out. I know it sucks, but dang you guys went very deep in the playoffs !!! I was backing you all the way in ya'lls playoff run. What you guys have done is bring some excitement back into our district in the playoffs. I think you guys did what you could. I know it seemed like you were playing against the refs as well, I listened to the game. Use this and build on it for next year. Good luck !  Keep your heads up and be proud of what you have accomplished !!!

[VP93....]

Good call by the Refs he was DOWN..

GREAT season JAGS yall made all of us PROUD...

[BearBryant]

In pic #5 it looks like the ball is coming out. 

Either way this is all a  moot point. 

Congrats on the great season Jags. 

[southern-thunder]

Down!

[Guest rambleonus]

If Karaam wasn't down at the time of the fumble I think #36 on the D would be in on the tackle.  It looks like he was around the ball but held up when he say Karaam go down.
