OK, another beef with CFB rules:
Miami receiver on third and long goes up in the middle of the field, and catches the ball in the air about 1 yard past the first down line.
Before he lands, the Pitt DB hits him mid-air and drives him backwards where he lands on the ground 1 yard short of the first down line.
The ruling: forward progress marked 1 yard past--first down Miami.
Yet if that play had happened on the sideline and the receiver had been driven out of bounds, it would have been incomplete.
It's the inconsistent BS like this that drives me crazy!!!
